Carrie H, from Kittanning,
PA, spent two months in the one-bedroom
"Resort Home" called "Casita". She had this to say:
I just wanted to express my pleasure with
my recent stay at GV Resort Homes. My stay was for May and June
2006. I moved to Arizona from PA to
take a job and GVRH was perfect for the "interim period" that it took
to find a rental for my family. The fact that the unit (Casita)
was fully furnished, even down to linens, was a major plus as I didn't
have to bring anything but personal items on the drive from PA.
The furnishings were comfortable and tasteful. The neighborhood was very nice
and I felt right-at-home almost immediately. The other residents
were very friendly and helpful; especially when I unexpectedly ran into
one of the neighborhood javelinas! The unit was conveniently
located to a grocery store, pharmacy, gas station and restaurants, all
within walking distance. The pool and spa were very nice and well
kept. The grounds were always clean and well-maintained. David, the manager, was
extremely helpful and went above and beyond to assist me in any way he
could. Knowing that I was not at all familiar with the area, he
went to the Visitors Bureau and got maps and other information for
me. He even mapped out the easiest route for me to get to
work! He was always accessible and very pleasant. (Thank
you, David!!!) I highly recommend GVRH! Thank you! Carrie H.
Donna and Joe, from Wisconsin,
spent the month of February, 2006 in a one-bedroom "Resort Home"
listed through BirdsAndBoomers.com
On the topic of "How easy was it to work with our staff?" They
gave us (on a scale of 0 through 10, with 10 high) 9 for ease of
reservation, 10 for move in, 10 for during their stay, 10 for move
out. They especially appreciated having everything they needed in
the unit. (Referring to sheets, blankets, towels, kitchen gear
etc.)
Ross, from Puget Sound,
Washington,
spent Spring Break 2006 playing golf in Green Valley. He
also stayed in a one-bedroom "Resort Home" listed through BirdsAndBoomers.com. He
left a short, simple note "We enjoyed our stay. Everything in the
unit
worked well. Thank you."
Chuck & Vera moved to
Green Valley from California in the Summer of 2005. While
their home was being built, they stayed in one of the two-bedroom
rental units. (The one called "Flamenco".) Here are some of their
comments (B&B = BirdsAndBoomers.com,
C&V = Chuck & Vera):
B&B: How were we to
work with when you were still in California?
C&V: We
found it easy to communicate on the Internet and phone. The pictures of
the unit were of great value and gave us something to work with. We
could actually see what the back yard looked like and were given
information about the quail running through.
B&B: What would you
tell someone who is out of state and considering staying in a property
listed on BirdsAndBoomers.com?
C&V: Given
the actual size of the unit and pictures would help decide how much
furniture could be used. If coming from a larger home, there were
storage places available if needed. The area is very quiet and away
from freeway noise. The benefits of the rec center [GVR] is very
valuable and convenient because of all the activities and amenities. I
was really impressed with the center. Also the views are wonderful as
you drive around the area.
B&B: How easy were the
property managers to work with while you were in one of the rental
units on BirdsAndBoomers.com?
C&V: The
managers complied to all of our concerns. I would recommend that the
patio not be used for storage. It is a good private area to sit in or
barbecue.
B&B: Was there
anything that we did that made us stand out? - how did we affect your
getting settled in Green Valley?
C&V: We
received lots of information and answers to our questions. We were
especially treated with respect and politeness. Receiving immediate
responses to our concerns was very much appreciated
B&B: What, if
anything, would you tell someone who is choosing between staying in a
property on BirdsAndBoomers.com or through some other company?
C&V: I
don't know about any other companies. The friendliness and compassion
for newcomers like us, helped us appreciate the choice we made coming
to Green Valley. Thanks for allowing us to evaluate our wonderful
stay at Calle Flamenco.
The Kraynaks, from Allen
Park, Michigan, spent two-and-a-half months in a one-bedroom
"Resort Home"
(The one called "Prospero") listed through BirdsAndBoomers.com "We
are having a wonderful stay! Thank you for all you've done to
make [unit's address] so livable!"
Owen & Mary Jane, from
Seattle, Washington, spent a week in the one-bedroom
"Resort Home" called "Casita" and three months in the two-bedroom
townhome called "Flamenco." "Thanks for the wonderful
stay."
