10 weeks Avanti in Desert Ridge!

The condo is accurate in description . Rented as a snowbird to visit my daughter’s family N of Desert Ridge. The owners were great and responsive to our needs. The only negative aspect is parking , we have a F 150 extended cab and the garage is small. Other than that we had a great stay!

Great location

I loved the location of this condo with easy access on/off the 101 and close to Desert Ridge Marketplace. The grounds are very nice and the pool a great place to hang out. The condo itself was nicely equipped in the kitchen and just recently had new carpet installed in the bedrooms. Owners were very quick to answer questions and respond to emails and calls.

A great location to get to any event in the valley. The condo was very clean with all the confronts of home. Brad & Rochelle were very easy to work with and were very helpful with solving a internet/TV problem. A great range of shopping and restaurants near the condo if you should choose to dine out. I would recommend staying here.

Perfect Location

Our stay at Brad and Rochelle's desert home was absolutely fantastic. The property is situated in a prime location. Whether it was exploring local restaurants or enjoying nearby hiking trails, we found everything conveniently close by. The neigborhood was perfect for our morning walks...safe,quiet and serene. Brad and Rochelle were extremely responsive and accommodating from the moment we booked our stay. They were quick to answer any questions or concerns. Overall, our experience met all expectations. The combination of the unbeatable location and the attentive owners made for an unforgettable getaway. We would gladly return in the future and can't wait to plan our next visit.

Best Yet!

This property has received so many outstanding reviews that it's difficult to find additional superlatives to express our appreciation for the six weeks we made the Rudnick condo our home in Phoenix/Scottsdale. We've stayed in many HomeAway properties all over the world, and this one easily becomes the gold standard of what a HomeAway experience should be. We've spent up to $200 on missing items in other rentals just to meet our minimal living requirements. Here we had everything we needed to live in comfort and luxury. (Well, we did buy a wooden spoon, which we'll leave in the drawer for whoever is next!) Brad responded immediately to the one or two questions we had during our stay--congenial, supportive, accessible and responsive. And don't let the summer heat in Phoenix discourage you from renting the Rudnick condo: There's plenty to do in the area to beat the heat. Many thanks, Brad!

Location impacts final score

There is one primary reason we didn’t rate our stay 5/5 which I will explain below. Before I do, I want to summarize our visit and the many positive things about it. Brad and Rochelle are great hosts. Instructions prior to arrival were timely and concise. We entered the condo for the first time without issue and found it to be very clean and tidy although a bit dated in color. The condo is well appointed. The family room furniture is starting to show its age but is still very comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked with high quality pots & pans, utensils, bakeware, etc. The carpeting in the bedrooms appears to be “newer” with thick padding. The bathrooms were clean, however the master bathroom grout throughout on the floor is dirty and stained and can really use a deep, thorough steam cleaning. Also, the bathroom rugs are very dated and thin. The location of the complex is very close to many activities and restaurants. The grounds are well maintained. The heated pool is a short 5 min walk. Unfortunately a short term rental does not include access to the larger community facilities. The one negative issue, and to us it was a big issue but nothing to do directly with Brad and Rochelle is the location of the condo within the complex. It is located on the outside perimeter of the complex facing a very major road which has 3 lanes of traffic in each direction and the noise is very loud from 6AM until around 9PM. Also, there were very loud footsteps from the unit above.

HI Barry: Thank you for your review. We appreciate your candor and we will take steps to correct the issues that you have identified. We will talk with our housekeepers about the bathrooms to have the grout steam cleaned as well as replace those items that look warn. We will also consult with our designer to freshen up the color pallet in the condo. Again, thank you for review of our AZ home. Regards, Brad Rudnick

Great choice!

This property is in a highly desired area of north Phoenix and pretty much you have anything you want within 5-30 min drive. The pool is lovely and quiet and walking distance. Brad and Rochelle have pretty much everything you would need to live there. They stay on top of servicing and when something needed attention they were attentive for the most part. I would make sure to stay on top of the pest control services. We noticed a drop in the number of scorpians when they started servicing twice a month vs. once a month and then they were mostly dead when we did see them. Finally, make sure you only have 2 cars. They will fit in the garage however the garage is super hard to get in and out of and narrow and in a corner of the complex. We had 3 cars and the HOA is nuts there. They are not kind and they don't care about what your life situation is. Very rude and unpleasant to talk to and unresponsive. Other than that, it's a darling place to stay and has everything you need and Brad and Rochelle care about the property.

Great Place!

We spent a couple of months in this lovely apartment while my husband was treated at the Mayo Clinic. It’s an easy drive to the clinic without a lot of traffic. It’s very close to the MIM. The apartment is really comfortable. We were there in the hot summer and were grateful for the air conditioning. The bed was very comfortable which is, to me, a real plus. The kitchen is well stocked with equipment for making meals. The appliances work well. The Washer and dryer worked well. This apartment is well cared for and clean. The owners have it sprayed often for insects, etc. They were really quick to address any concerns that we had. The only problem was with the tv service and they took care of it as soon as we contacted them. The landscaping is beautiful. We enjoyed the pool area, which was never crowded. People were very friendly. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks for sharing with us.

Temporary Quarters

We sold our home and needed a place to stay for three months until our new home was ready. This unit fit the bill perfectly. It is conveniently located near shopping and restaurants. We found it to be well-appointed and comfortable. It is in a very safe and quiet neighborhood and we would highly recommend it as a place to stay.

Diamond in the rough

My wife was a patient at Mayo Hospital, and we needed to be close for at least a month. This condo was absolutely perfect! The location was within three miles of Mayo, not to mention blocks away from shopping and restaurants, although it was just far enough away that it was quiet and comfortable. The grounds were daily manicured and great for evening or morning walks. Brad was an absolute a wonderful host, and communicated respectfully. We would recommend this well equipped and spacious condo to anyone looking for a very pleasurable stay. Thanks Brad for sharing your place with us.

About the host

Hosted by Brad and Rochelle Rudnick

Host profile image
Rochelle and I reside in Pleasanton, CA. We were introduced to the Tempe - Phoenix - Scottsdale area when our son attended Arizona State University. Our first property in the area was a condo near ASU where our son lived before graduation. We fell in love with the area especially since Scottsdale is the Spring Training home of the San Francisco Giants and many other MLB teams. Golf courses are everywhere and dining and shopping choices are plentiful. This is our home when we are not in California. It has all of the things we enjoy. We are confident you will enjoy the area as well..

Why they chose this property

If location is important to you, this property will be the one which will fit all of your needs. You will have easy access to all of the major freeways in the area. You are close to all of the major attractions in the area including the airport, dining, shopping, entertainment, Spring Training and other professional sports venues and much. much more. We have given the property an upscale look just as we have done to our home in California. You will love it.

What makes this property unique

When we purchased this property, we were looking for a gated community and a 1-level, ground floor condo for it's ease of entry and exit of the complex. In addition, our location is minutes from everything we enjoy about the area - professional baseball and basketball, golf, movies, entertainment, dining and shopping. We could not find a property that has everything that we were looking for in a vacation home.
