Here are some direct quotes from our guests at Casa Cactus: Pros "... Nature lovers will be very pleased with its tranquil spot nestled at the edge of Tonto National Park, and the centuries old saguaro in the backyard is epic. " "... Design appreciators will love its interior which is artful yet minimal and beautifully spacious. " "... Everything is brand new and energetically clean. " "... A serene getaway from the hustle and bustle" "... Communication was immediate and clear every time. Housekeeping was five star, stargazing a billion." Note "... I do recommend a 4x4 car if renting as it makes the dirt road part of the drive more fun :)" "Casa Cactus is 30 minutes away from Old Town Scottsdale, so Instacart is a huge win for this place." ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the villa: WiFi ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - Up to 9 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ## Similar properties ![Pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/103000000/102920000/102918600/102918586/e1290a1a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cozy Home - Enclosed Pool & Horse Stalls Rio Verde Foothills - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 9 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-10&endDate=2025-10-11&selected=102918586&PinnedHotelID=102918586&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/110000000/109060000/109053600/109053504/91e9a1ef.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Four Peaks Retreat- 2+ acres in the Tonto Forest Rio Verde Foothills - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 1 review [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-10&endDate=2025-10-11&selected=109053504&PinnedHotelID=109053504&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96010000/96007300/96007267/964c682c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Lavish Desert Getaway, Full Kitchen, Washer, Dryer, BBQ, Private Yard & Hammock!
