Scottsdale is the desert done right -- polished but never stiff, with Old Town's gallery-lined streets a few minutes from the quiet, cactus-studded estates of Paradise Valley and the golf-course communities of DC Ranch, Kierland and Gainey Ranch. Our villas span the whole valley, from walkable Old Town bases for a bachelorette weekend to sprawling desert-modern compounds in McCormick Ranch built for a group that wants its own pool, its own kitchen, and the Sonoran sunset to itself.

Every villa in our Scottsdale collection is hand-selected and vetted by our team -- a private pool, real bedrooms for your whole group, and a location that actually puts you where you want to be, not just close. Book direct and your stay includes five-star concierge service: private chef, tee times at the course of your choice, spa treatments in-villa, car service, and reservations at the restaurants and clubs everyone's trying to get into.

Scottsdale runs on the opposite calendar from a beach destination -- high season is October through April, when snowbirds and golfers take over the valley. The WM Phoenix Open in February, the Barrett-Jackson car auction in January, and Cactus League spring training in March sell out our best villas months ahead, so book early for those windows or let our concierge team match you to the right home based on group size, neighborhood and budget.
