Very comfortable in great location
We had a great stay here with just a couple of issues. The condo had lovely morning light and great view from the covered porch with comfortable outdoor seating. A hummingbird nest was under construction on a plant hook on the porch! The condo has been recently acquired by Vacasa, so the kitchen doesn't have any cooking spices, oils or sauces, so you have to bring your own. Vacasa was responsive to communcation and extended our stay by one day for a fair price. You can get to the Ventana Canyon hiking trail from the complex, but only via a secret route behind one of the adjacent units in the direction of the trail. You can best learn about it by driving to the trail parking lot for your first walk and looking for it on the way to the trail. The complaint we have is the leaf blowers! Monday and Tuesday morning at 8am, multiple gas-powered backpack leafblowers started up and went on for hours. This is utterly absurd. While they were under our second floor windows, it sounded like they were inside the living room with us. The groundskeeper was blowing out the desert areas between cacti. I'm putting this here so maybe Vacasa will make a formal complaint to the complete management and get them to use battery leafblowers (if at all!). The other much more minor thing you should know about, is you can hear the distant sound of the Lowes Ventana Canyon air handlers when you are on the porch. The pools are heated and hot tub was fine.
