Perfect place to relax and enjoy the sun!

Great place - updated decor, nicely appointed. Two good sized bedrooms, two nice bathrooms, great outside balcony on the golf course. Nice furnishings, nice bedding, towels, etc. Handy washer/dryer, and a golf cart included which is perfect in a community where it's the mode of transportation. Only disappointment is that it's such a great place, it's booked for the prime months for the next four years - haha!

This property is so clean, beautifully decorated with a designer's touch. We had everything we needed,.We stayed for 6 weeks as our home was not finished yet. I cooked many meals and grilled on the grill. Every cooking utensil I needed was there!The Villa was stocked with all the necessities, from toilet paper to laundry detergent!

Stay elsewhere

Sunbird Golf Resort amenities were satisfactory. The restaurant had good food & great Happy Hour. The unit we rented had several issues. The furniture was old/dirty & black dirt marks on carpet. The golf cart would only go in Reverse gear, so had added expense when golfed. The tub drained very slow & towels were threadbare. There were only four dishes so we had to run dishwasher every day. It was located near busy street - awakened at 6:00 every morning, even with the air conditioner on. We have used VRBO numerous times - this is first bad experience.

Clean, comfortability and well stocked are requirements Bill and I would demand when renting through VRBO and it is important we deliver the same. As indicated in your information package upon your arrival we prefer our guest to report any issues as they arise, as there are measures in place to help make your vacation a more positive experience. We take responsibility for any unexpected issue that occurs.

Our stay at HomeAway!

What a wonderful time we had at the Sunbird resort. We had stayed for two weeks played a few rounds of golf relaxed and enjoyed the sunshine. Our place was very nice and clean with everything that was needed to accommodate our stay. There was a couple of small things that needed to be attended too but nothing needed to be repaired right away. First time in Chandler and we enjoyed the area very much. Our only disappointment was to find out that next year we can’t stay for two weeks needs to be a month. Thanks again for letting us use the golf cart and your villa!

Always a great stay!

My golfing buddies and I have stayed here for our last three golf trips to Arizona, and this accommodation has become our favourite. A clean unit with everything you could need (plenty of dishes/cutlery, dishwasher, coffee maker, microwave, towels and washer/drier). Beds are comfortable (including the pullout couch) air conditioning works great, cable t.v for those relaxing evenings and reliable wifi to keep connected. Patio with an awning is perfect for a beer and bbq after golf. Sunbird is a great community with friendly neighbours and a fun and tasty restaurant and pool/hot tub just minutes away with an included golf cart. Gail and Bill are great to deal with, very friendly and helpful. Plenty of great golf, restaurants and shopping close by. I will be returning!

Wonderful snowbird getaway

My partner and I have rented this property three times in the past couple years and have thoroughly enjoyed each stay. The property is perfect for a couple’s getaway. The house backs right onto a green of the golf course with a beautiful south view from the patio. All the appliances including the fridge, BBQ, microwave, and coffee maker were clean and in good working order. The air conditioner also worked great. Both bathrooms were clean and well stocked with towels and cleaning supplies. The corner couch was perfect for sprawling out and watching TV. The cable TV had lots of channels and the WIFI was fast. The restaurant in the complex has great value, especially breakfast. I would highly suggest the spinach and cheese omelette with fruit. Both pools area are clean and well-manicured for lounging around and enjoying the sunshine. Bill and Gail (the owners) have been very accommodating and said to call them personally if any problems should arise. I would give the overall experience at Sunbird and our accommodations a five star. See you this fall Sunbird!

About the host

Hosted by Gail & Bill Morris

Host profile image
We reside in Crowsnest Pass, Alberta, Canada, and have a passion for golf, pickleball, and curling. Our two adult sons love soaking up the Arizona sunshine and enjoy a friendly round of golf, often managing to win a few dollars from Dad along the way.



Why they chose this property

Our big plan? Ditch the frigid winters for six months and retire in sunny Arizona! In 2014, we embarked on a quest to find our own slice of paradise. After just a week at Sunbird Golf Resort, we knew we’d struck gold and reached out to a local realtor who quickly became a cherished friend. We’re thrilled to share this paradise with you and hope you fall in love with it just like we did!



What makes this property unique

Step into our open-concept villa, where sunshine streams through and offers a fantastic view of the golf course right from the kitchen, dining, and living areas. Kickstart your day by lounging in the morning sun with a steaming coffee, and then enjoy a cocktail or two during happy hour while watching golfers glide by.

Our gated property is packed with fun, including two heated pools for your splashing pleasure. Swing by the clubhouse office to check out the weekly lineup—karaoke on Fridays, dancing in the ballroom on Saturdays, and invigorating water aerobics every morning. Sunday Service starts at 9:00 am in the ballroom.

Don’t miss out on the amazing food and drinks at The Horizon Room—Sunday brunch is a must-try! The Pro Shop has you covered for tee times. We bet you’ll love it so much, you’ll be back for more!
