Welcome to "Desert Breeze

Escape to sunshine & serenity in this beautifully renovated 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home nestled in the picturesque hills of Fountain Hills, AZ. This property isn’t just another vacation rental—it’s a gateway to tranquility and adventure.

Captivating Views & Outdoor Bliss

Be greeted by breathtaking mountain views the moment you walk through the door. Choose your favorite relaxation spot from several outdoor areas designed for peace and privacy - with an amazing view from everywhere. Every hour, witness the iconic Fountain Hills fountain as it soars against the mountain backdrop—a spectacular sight from the front patio.

Luxurious Comforts Inside and Out

Indulge in the beauty of sweeping mountain vistas from every angle. Whether you're basking by the heated pool or unwinding on the covered back porch, you’ll find the perfect spot to soak in Arizona’s famous sunsets or listen to midnight coyote calls.

Inside, your home-away-from-home features a spacious, open-concept floor plan with soothing transitional decor that combines style and comfort. The fully equipped kitchen allows you to cook and interact with family effortlessly, surrounded by high-quality, super-comfortable furnishings.

Enjoy a BBQ with the Blackstone griddle or the gas grill on the breezeway, cozy up by the fire pit for evening chats, or stargaze in one of the top dark sky communities in the U.S. A $25M dark sky observatory opening in 2025 promises even more spectacular starry nights.

Perfect Vacation Getaway

The property was perfect. Matt is an incredible host and went the extra mile to make sure we enjoyed our stay. We were anxious to get away from frigid temps and were looking forward to relaxing in the sun and swimming. The heated pool was perfect, landscape is beautiful and the mountain/desert views are exceptional. We can't wait to come back!

Very Enjoyable Home

This property was lovely -- lots of windows and views, great pool/patio, and lots of covered spaces for reading and relaxing. The owner was wonderful -- he was very communicative and did all he could to ensure our stay was pleasant! The property is also very family-friendly -- with a Pack n Play, high chair, child rocker, and some kids' games on site. Note: all beds have Temprapedic mattresses.

Wonderful stay

The property is just as advertised. The views are even better in person. The accommodations had everything we needed. The location is great. It was very easy for us to get to Scottsdale and surrounding areas. Beautiful scenery along the way. It is a very nice city. Quiet and beautiful. Plenty of grocery stores, etc. We stayed at the start of the COVID-19 restrictions, but we were still able to golf and find what we needed. Having to stay put was not a problem as the house is very nice and the outdoor areas very private and breathtaking. I would highly recommend this home and we hope to stay again in the future. Matt was very easy to communicate with and we had a fantastic time!

Fountain Hills Gem

This is our second stay at Matt's beautiful home in Fountain Hills. We were greeted by a lovely gift basket filled with all sorts of treats which was so thoughtful. The house has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Kitchen is well outfitted and stocked with some basics to get you going. Bedrooms are comfortable and living area has loads of room to play board games, puzzle or just relax and watch some sports or watch a movie or take a spin on the bike! The house has a lovely pool and backyard where you can enjoy some beautiful sunsets while enjoying the peaceful and incredibly quiet neighborhood. You are close to the Fountain Hills town center, shopping, restaurants, and some nice hiking trails. Did I mention the cleanliness and neatness of the house? It really feels like a home away from home. Matt is a wonderful host and he always available if you need him. We are looking forward to our visit next year. Thanks for sharing your home with us!

Fountain Hills getaway

Absolutely love this property. Spacious home with pool and views in a quiet neighborhood. We felt like we were staying at a friend's home. Where to start.....well, communication with the host was clear and timely. We had no problems finding the house or accessing. This house has everything you could possibly need to enjoy your stay; the kitchen lacks nothing if you care to cook at home- which we did. I only wish we could have stayed longer so I could have made a cake for us to enjoy- or cookies for that matter- both could have been baked easily. BBQ available and the pool was enjoyed by all. Late October brings nice warm days and cooler evenings. Every bedroom was comfortable with extra linens/towels/blankets/pillows if needed. We love the location. Close to the town of Fountain Hills but also a short drove to Scottsdale and Phoenix. TV, Peloton bike, games all available. I would say that this is a place will keep everyone happy. We will definitely be back and we wish we could have stayed longer. Thanks so much for opening your home to us; your hospitality was much appreciated.

Wow, I have rented 19 VRBO properties in the in the last 22 years. There have been 10 in Hawaii to 3 in Mexico, one in Bend Oregon and 5 in Arizona. This house was the best one over all, for sure!!! Matt, was definitely the best owner/manager I have ever dealt with. He responded so quickly that I often didn't catch he replied for some time after! The kitchen is the best supplied one ever! Matt has thought of everything from the instant pot to air fryer to martini glasses to food staples! The knives are top notch. The kitchen has every piece of cutlery, dinnerware, pots, pans etc you can think of and more! Oh, and a much appreciated music speaker you could take outside to have your tunes playing! There are 2 dining tables. The living room has very comfortable seating, with a 65" TV (not a 70" which was my only disappointment). Don't miss watching the famous "Fountain", which is the tallest in the USA and one of the tallest in the world, go off every top of the hour, for 15 minutes, from the living room!!! The bedrooms have luxurious bedding and bathrooms have shampoo and more! The pool is great with an actual deep end. The umbrella's are fabulous to shade the middle of the pool in our Arizona heat. The views were amazing from it and most everywhere outside. There is a regular grill AND a flat top grill!!! The game room had a pool table, 3 cool video games, card table and more. It was a kick! Sure wish we coulda stayed longer than 3 nights!

Fountain Hills - May 2025

Enjoyed a 1 week stay with our crew of 5. Excellent weather.Property offered plenty of space and tranquility for an enjoyable Stay.Communication with the owner was super-timely and helpful. Check-in was as easy as it comes. Property was stocked well with proper cooking tools and some varied ingredients from past renters.The griddle and grill were both very nice to have for home meals.The pool offered a great setting to relax and look out over a sizeable natural landscape. Saw a coyote daily through the mornings scouting about.Bedrooms were all comfortable and well-appointed. Bathrooms were stocked well and clean.Fountain Hills has plenty of options for food and activity. You are 20 minutes from Scottsdale and 25 minutes from the east Valley for other choices. The views are hard to beat with Four Peaks right out the front door, Red Mountain off to the right, and the McDowells out the back. Hiking at Adero Canyon (15 minutes away) was really nice. Fountain Hills is pretty walkable to the business area near the fountain and we did that 3 or 4 times. 30 minutes each way, but hilly.We had a great experience and Matt's property was a great selection for us.

Girls Trip!

This was our second time coming to Desert Breeze and it was a great experience. The host is super communicative and worked with us on some unexpected rebooking needs that was much appreciated. The house is beautiful, big and meets all the needs you could possibly have. The pool area is perfect for simply being about to be outside and enjoy the surroundings. The location of the property is great as well and we were easily able to access activities (hikes, spa, shopping, river) easily from its central location. Highly recommend this property for a visit!

The photos just don’t capture the stunning views! So private and peaceful in an upscale neighborhood we'd never been to. Amazing location and views! So private and peaceful! The pool was the big reason we wanted to stay here. It has a zero gravity swing with the mountain view’s… fantastic!

It's very quiet as the neighbors are a good distance away so the pool area is very private.

About the host

Hosted by Matt Conlon

Host profile image
Hello! I'm Matt Conlon, your go-to guy for a fantastic stay in scenic Fountain Hills. When you book my place, you get me—directly via the app, text, or phone. I'm all about swift, personal responses. You won't be dealing with distant property managers or call centers.

A New Jersey native, I fell in love with Fountain Hills while my daughters were attending college nearby. Now, I'm in nearby Chandler, AZ, enjoying life close to their growing families.

Originally, this house was intended to be home but life got in the way and I've turned it into a stellar spot for guests like you. I'm proud of my dozens of five-star reviews—each one earned by a genuine care for my guests to have a fantastic time with their friends and family.

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location! Sure, the fresh reno caught my eye, but it was the sprawling feel of the place, both inside and out. But it was the views in every direction that really sealed the deal. Nestled among million-dollar homes in a neighborhood where the pride is as understated as it is comfortable, the location is just fantastic.
Funny thing—I wasn’t even close to being “in the market” for a home in Arizona. But after a hike on Sunrise Mountain and a bite at the All American Pub downtown (right across from the Fountain), I casually wandered into the real estate office next door. By the next day, I had an offer in. The rest is history, and I love sharing it, now with many repeat guests.

What makes this property unique

My home is more than just a spot with great features and views…and so much more than “a rental”! Think of this place not merely as a property, but as YOUR place for making memories. I’m a people-pleaser by nature (property manager by necessity!), always on a mission to keep things fresh, bright, spotless, and comfortable.

Need a hand? I’m there with a smile, and maybe even a birthday cake and balloons if that’s what the day calls for! But don’t worry—I get the whole privacy thing, too. Inspired by my own family’s vacations, I totally get how crucial a flawless stay is. I’m here to make sure your experience is nothing short of exceptional.
