11 Fun Things to Do with Teens in Phoenix on a Family Vacation

We stayed at Ensuite retreat. It was amazing! it was the perfect place to celebrate my birthday with family and friends. The pool and outside area were perfect for entertaining and the house was well stocked with anything you could need. Each of the bedrooms had their own ensuite bathroom which was also very convenient. The golf and pickleball court was used everyday. Stay with Style Scottsdale made the entire process so easy to book and Darlene was there every step of the way…a true professional. Do not hesitate to book this magnificent house. You will not reget it!

We stayed at Paradise Reserve. The home is absolutely stunning—brand new, beautifully designed, impeccably clean, and even more impressive in person than in the photos. Every detail was thoughtfully done, and it had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay.One of the highlights of our experience was working with Darlene. She was fantastic from start to finish—responsive, professional, accommodating, and incredibly easy to work with. She made the entire booking and check-in process seamless and was always available if we had any questions.If you’re looking for a luxury home in Scottsdale, I can’t recommend Paradise Reserve and Stay With Style Scottsdale highly enough. We would absolutely stay here again and look forward to our next visit!

My husband and I booked this home on a whim with the help of Darlene. Darlene was very accommodating to our situation and having to transfer Airbnb‘s. This beautiful home was every thing we expected and more. The layout of the home and the brand new renovations make you feel like you never wanna leave. My husband and my plan on returning in the near future to book this amazing home again.

We stayed at Ensuite Retreat with a large group on a golf trip, and it was the perfect place for our stay. The house had everything we needed, and we made great use of the pool, basketball court, pickleball court, and mini soccer field. The home was spotless, well-maintained, and the furniture and finishes were excellent. Darlene and her team were outstanding. They were available 24/7 and responded quickly whenever we had questions, making the entire experience seamless. The location is fantastic—set in a prestigious, private community surrounded by a beautiful golf course, while still being close to everything Scottsdale has to offer. We had an amazing experience and would absolutely stay at Ensuite Retreat again. Highly recommend it for golf trips or large groups!

We stayed at Elite Retreat for our annual family trip. WOW! The property was amazing inside and out. Every indoor space was comfortable and beautifully decorated. The kitchen had everything you could need, four washer and dryers are always helpful during a one-week stay, and there was plenty of space for everyone to hang out together, or have some time away from the group. The outdoor area has a hot tub, cold plunge pool, pickleball and basketball court, golf putting, and yard games. The golf simulator was a huge hit with the group, too. The upper level deck was the perfect spot to take in the beautiful evening sunsets. The house is in a quiet neighborhood and still close to grocery stores, restaurants, and not far from downtown Scottsdale. There wasn't anything more we could have asked for. We also used their concierge service to book massages in the house, and golf tee times which made the visit even more perfect. We highly recommend Darlene and the team to plan your next Scottsdale trip. We can't wait to come back.

We had an amazing stay at Lantern Retreat for a girls’ weekend in Scottsdale with 13 guests from South Dakota! The house was exactly as described - spacious, clean, beautifully decorated, and with plenty of room for everyone to spread out comfortably.Our host, Darlene, was incredibly kind and helpful - not only throughout our stay, but also in the weeks and days leading up to our trip. She was responsive, accommodating, and made the entire experience seamless.The house worked perfectly for a larger group, and we made so many wonderful memories here. We would absolutely stay again and highly recommend SWSS to anyone planning a group trip to Scottsdale!

Awful experience. Use another source if you want to rent a house in Scottsdale. If you do rent with these people be warned they are extremely lazy and do not maintain their property. First of all the upstairs air conditioning is extremely lack luster. I know this this is the Arizona heat and it can take time for the AC to get going but this thing flat out didn’t work and the property had the audacity to say please keep the AC temp above 70.Next the hot water in the showers didn’t work along with the electricity in one of the bedrooms. The bedroom with the bunk beds was missing electricity in one half of the room which made it difficult to charge one’s devices or plug in a fan which was a necessity since the AC wasn’t working properly.When complained about the company said they would send someone over to take a look at it. They did absolutely nothing. They said that the hot water was working and that the lamp in that bedroom would turn on so it’s all good. This was completely false. Hot water was still non existent in most bathrooms and the electricity in that one bedroom was still limited to one side. It should be known that the outlets that did work were mostly taken up by other property necessities which limited my personal use to them. The outlets were also behind a dresser so I had to move the dresser out of the way if I wanted to use it. We told the company about this and were told that they would send an electrician after we left.All in all, it’s a beautiful property with beautiful amenities and has the potential to be a very fun and exciting rental home. However, due to the lack of basic effort by this the company the house suffers and will continue to suffer until it falls under new owners. Please book somewhere else.

I stayed at Casa Azul and the house was perfect! Super clean and fully equipped with everything we needed. Management company was super attentive and responsive. Perfect for a nice quiet Moms weekend away

Beautiful, modern home. Super clean and spacious! Host was a pleasure to deal with. Booking was a breeze and everything was set up so well. Would stay here again!

Wonderful house for a week long golf trip. Everything was so user friendly from the tv’s to the game room and pool and sauna. The beds were so comfortable we all slept great. The location could not be better.

I stayed at the Lantern Retreat and had an unbelievable experience; the place was extremely clean, vibrant and overall the perfect spot to host a large group of 15+ friends - I would recommend this place to anyone, big thanks to Darlene and the team for all their support

Paradise Reserve and SWSS were everything we could have hoped for and more in a home and vacation experience. Every detail was thought of for this home and executed to make for the most luxurious stay for our group. 10/10 would recommend Paradise Reserve and Darlene and her team, who cultivated such an incredible experience for our group. Communication, concierge services, and general kindness for our trip were top notch and truly made our stay so memorable.

We stayed here for a golf trip and it was perfect from start to finish. The location is fantastic—convenient to great courses, dining, and everything we needed. The house itself is beautiful, but the awesome pool was the highlight. We spent every evening relaxing and unwinding there after long days on the course. Darlene and the entire staff were extremely helpful and communicative throughout the entire process. They made everything seamless and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay. If you’re heading to Scottsdale for golf or just a getaway, book this place—you won’t be disappointed!

The place was even better than we expected!! Great outdoor space with lots to do for everyone. Close to everything we needed. This was our second stay at FORE! and won’t be our last . Another great vacation !

Awesome experience. We had plenty of space to spread out even with our crew of 15. Super clean. The pool, hot tub, sports court and lawn games were great for all especially the kids. The covered outdoor kitchen was a great place to grill and we loved the fire pit. Highly recommend!

Beautifully remodeled, contemporary interior, well appointed with everything we could ask for. We stayed for a week. Very clean and super comfortable. The pool temperature was perfect, the bbq clean as new and great quality. Comfortable patio furniture. I can’t think of anything that could be improved. Close drive to lots of great restaurants. Even the neighbors we met were nice. Easy 5 stars.

The property is amazing. What a wonderful experience

The Elite Retreat was truly that! The property was fabulous and a great location. The communication with the property manager was excellent. Would highly recommend for a large gathering or groups.

My family and I stayed at the Ultimate Compound in Scottsdale, AZ. We had an incredible experience! The host was amazing and very responsive. There were so many things to do right at the compound. Fun and comfort for all ages! We will be back! Five Stars in every category!! Doug J

I highly recommend Stay With Style Scottsdale. The house was clean and organized with plenty of fun things to keep you entertained. The communication was exceptional. We look forward to returning.

This place is amazing! Don’t even hesitate to book this house. Everything you need is there… every need is met. Management is super responsive… not that we really needed anything but still were engaged with us during check-in. Our only regret is that we couldn’t stay longer!

The house was amazing, clean, well stocked and had everything you could ever need ! Stay with style Scottsdale was the best company we have used for rentals and will definitely use them again

The house was very convenient to all the places we visited. The Host was very responsive & the house was everything as she described. The golf simulator & pool was a HUGE hit. Would stay here again.

We had the best time at Tailfeather. It was immaculate, peaceful, comfortable and well appointed. Darlene was responsive and helpful. Would definitely return.

Very clean, plenty of space, nicely furnished, fantastic pool and backyard. Excellent communication. Would definitely stay again.

Very well run operation and beautiful properties. They made planning our family gathering easy and even had a passenger van waiting for us upon arrival. So much easier to work rather than trying to stitch together the logistics when you have a bigger group. Highly recommend!

This will be an easy review..First off LOVED the house! The setup was magnificent. Everything from the pool and the backyard to the pingpong and pool table!On top of that.. it is close by everything in Scottsdale as well!The host was just as good. Communication is top notch and gives you everything you need.DEFINITELY RECOMMEND

My family of 13 loved the Celebrity Hideaway! The tennis court in the back yard was a real plus and the pool table, putting area, and ping pong table added hours of fun.The pool and slide were loved by the kids and we heated the pool for extra comfort. The house interior was laid out perfectly for our large family; we wouldn’t chance a thing! And if you haven’t been to Scottsdale, go!! There’s so much to do.

If I could give six stars I would. My group and I had to last minute pivot a trip we had planned and were struggling to find accommodation with such little notice. Darlene’s kindness during a stressful situation really set the tone for the entire experience. She was supportive throughout the whole booking experience and was available throughout our stay. The home itself was absolutely incredible. Exactly like the photos! It was perfect for our group. So much so, we are looking to plan future trips out there so we can utilize the space again. I can’t recommend the property and Darlene enough!

We had an amazing family vacation (2 parents and 4 young adult kids) at this home. Location was great, so much space for everyone to spread out, yet we all enjoyed time together in the multiple common areas. We played pickleball and used the pool every day. All amenities were provided and the kitchen was fully stocked for our needs. Most importantly, the house was super clean and the property managers were very prompt in responding to any of our texts. Would definitely recommend.

Amazing location! We had stayed here 8 year ago and decided to return this February. Extremely please with the layout, house was perfect with great amenities and top notch concierge services. We’ll definitely be back! Thank you Darlene for everything!

We had a great family reunion at the house. Everyone enjoyed all the amenities of this beautiful house.

Incredibly done! Dream house, perfect for a large gathering. Attention to detail from the SWSS team was first class.

The house was perfect for our team offsite! It’s conveniently located in a nice neighborhood and has great amenities! Really great experience working with the Stay with Scottsdale team and would highly recommend staying at one of their properties.

I cannot recommend SWSS higher. They are extremely professional and helpful! We were lucky to tour 5 different properties they had and settled on Elite Retreat. All of the properties were extremely clean, well kept, and easy to simply unpack and enjoy our stay! If you are looking to stay at a short term rental in Scottsdale, I would highly recommend you check out their property portfolio!

The staff were super accommodating before our arrival!!! Would 10/10 recommend staying here or at any other property they have! The space was exactly as described & super clean. Had everything needed to stay there & perfect location.

Great house plenty of room everything needed for a good stay

Great place! Would definitely rent again.

Our best Airbnb experience to date. The house had all of the amenities that we possibly could’ve needed. Everything worked great especially the heated pool. The game room was amazing and kept their children, busy and off of screens. The outdoor activities were amazing. Also mini golf bocce ball beanbag toss. Would highly recommend staying here. We will definitely try to book it. The next time we come to Scottsdale.

We had the most amazing experience at this Scottsdale home. I’m sorry we didn’t take pics of the house or the backyard but the accommodations were fantastic. The house itself is spacious and impeccably kept. The bedrooms are so comfortable with excellent mattresses and clean linen that did not look old or used. There was an abundance of towels, in all sizes, which was very helpful. We loved that every light switch was clearly labeled so you didn’t need to keep turning lights on and off to see which fixture it belonged to. The open floor plan was beautiful- we are a family of 8 on winter break and the setup allowed for ppl to be in the kitchen and the den with lots of room to walk around and still be able to spend time together. The sliding doors in the kitchen area allowed for the doors to either be semi or completely open which really opened up the space even more. The backyard was magnificent!! The pickleball/tennis/basketball court is well kept and well lit for night play as well. The outdoor kitchen and built in bbq had plenty of seating and offered a warm, cozy, inclusive vibe. The pool and hot tub are gorgeous and clean. The double washers and dryers were a game changer- have to add this to my own house now! We cannot rate this house high enough. The communication was always clear and immediate- we always felt there was someone to speak to if we needed anything. When our flight was cancelled at the last minute they were very accommodating in extending our stay day by day as necessary. Forget hotels- this is your private resort with all amenities. We can’t wait to go back!!

We had an awesome stay at Cactus Crown in Scottsdale. The outdoor amenities were top-notch — perfect for relaxing and hanging out after long days on the golf course. The accommodations were spacious, comfortable, and extremely well set up for our large group of golfers. Our group had a total of 8 and everyone was comfortable. Everything was clean, well maintained, and exactly as advertised. Location was great and made getting to courses, dining, and entertainment easy. Highly recommend this property for golf trips or large group stays. We’d absolutely book again.

Absolutely stunning property & amenities. Pool, hot tub, basketball court, pickleball court, outdoor kitchen, fire pit. 6 master suites. Stayed with 4 couples for a 3 day golf trip. Fabulous courses only 15-20 minute drives away. Highly recommend!

This home is absolutely breathtaking and amazing. Do yourself a favor and book this location as soon as you can for you and all of your friends and family. Sleeps 20 people but feels so much bigger than that. So many activities and things to do at the house or enjoy the wonderful back yard.

We visited with a large group of friends and family, and the compound exceeded all expectations. The bunk house, in particular, was an absolute hit with the children. Everything was perfectly clean, and the compound was impeccably appointed. All bed were comfortable, and there was room for everyone to spread out and do whatever they wanted. We are a finicky group and everybody was still impressed.

Fantastic location with an amazing, completely private yard. The wonderful pool and hot tub were a big hit with the kids and the proximity to several different hiking options topped it off. What’s great holiday location!

My family rented Catcus Crown from Stay with Style Scottsdale (SWSS) over Christmas week 2025. I've rented houses all over the US and Caribbean and I can say without hesitation that SWSS is excellent at managing and delivering a rental home. The home was very clean, had plenty of linens, towels, and was in great shape. There were so many plates, bowls, silverware, pots and pans. We had 15 adults and 4 kids and we never ran out of cups or plates. This home in particular was very new and had top of the line appliances including a big subzero fridge, new wolf ovens, and 2 big washer and dryers to use should you need them. There are 7 bedrooms and 7 full baths. There is ample seating for big family gatherings. The outdoor space was amazing including an eating area, and a tv area. There is an outdoor grill, hot tub, and a gigantic heated pool. There is also a pickle ball court and a big wood fire pit. We absolutely loved this home and are already planning a return trip. I also want to emphasize that the staff at SWSS is excellent. Darlene, Jorge, and the maintenance crew quickly dealt with all of the very small issues we ran into. Darlene is incredibly friendly and responsive and so very easy to work with. Jorge was always available by text and quickly resolved any of our concerns. If the Catcus Crown home is not available, I have no issues working with Darlene and SWSS to find another home they manage. They really are the best company I've dealt with in over 13 years of renting homes. thanks Darlene and the entire SWSS staff.

A perfect place to stay with our high school basketball team. So much to do to keep them all entertained.
