Best Hotels near Camp Creek Falls, Carefree

This is the 2nd time being able to stay at the Scottsdale Villa Mirage and it was just as great as the 1st time! Very friendly and helpful staff, including the staff in AQUA at the pool. Hope to be able to come back again even though we come thru RCI (Please always leave room for RCI members!!)

We stay in a lot of hotels this price point because of our business. Super nice hotel. Comfortable beds/nice loud TV, great shower although it has that darned soft water. Nicen linens and cotton blankets on the beds. Refrigerator and Keurig machines. Ice machine that works. Only a few issues. You are charged for bottles of water. We are used to traveling with hotels that give you the cheap bottles of water for free. We don't need expensive hoity toity bottle adding to the bill. The air conditioning kept resetting itself during the night higher than we liked so we kept waking from stuffiness. You have to pay for breakfast and they don't serve til 7 on the weekends. The ac may be a deal breaker for a place that is 105 degrees in May.

E-Z Check In. not so easy to get into room however. upon opening the door I was trapped between the front door and another door with no lights and had to finagle my way out of there and return to the front desk to figure out how to turn on the lights. the attendant couldn't help but laugh out loud yeah okay it was funny but when I went to insert my key card in the other slot to turn the lights on they also did not tell me I needed to keep it in there so now I was stuck in the room with no lights and had to find my way back in the dark again only to be laughed at again and yes okay it was even funnier.. overall I had a good experience and the staff was nice and friendly. would recommend to anyone

*** Updating my former review of 1 star and changing it to a 3* overall review. My pre-vacation experience was a terrible terrible nightmare, worthy of zero stars. We were canceled on the week before our trip with zero warning or notice. I found out the hard way...we were left without a reservation and no communication of such changes. As someone wigh considerable travel and business management experience and one who hates to complain about trivial things I have to say the way this company operates in different segments (marketing, promotions, guest services, reservations, concierge, front desk management, and travel club etc) nobody knows what the next department does or has authority to do. There is WAY too much transferring, lost colls, horrific lack of communication between departments, the list could go on. They hire an outside ”marketing” department that frequently lies to prospective guests and once on property, management deflects blame to them for discrepancies. Happened to me, happened to woman at front desk while I was waiting. You hired a marketing company, if you disagree with their slimy techniques, say something, do something, fire them. Deflecting is not an answer. Guests deserve better treatment. Period. THAT SAID, our experience prior to arrival and during our stay was complete opposite. This resort is quite lovely. My family had a really terrific stay. The villas are absolutely gorgeous. We were upgraded to a 2 bed signature at check-in. Process took 5 min most. Resort is small enough to walk quickly everywhere. So very family friendly. Kids had a blast. Pools were not over crowded. Management was kind and considerate. Gave us extra pool towels and bottled water, opened the market for us after hours. No hassell with wristbands or ridiculous rules. Could eat and drink at the table by the pool. The best part was no rule nazis. It was a relaxing, enjoyable stay. Bartenders made some great White Russians 👌 Stay itself was a 5*, but giving this 3* overall for experience leading up to trip.
