Casa Rica is a modern well equipped pool home is located in an upscale neighbourhood of North Scottsdale.  This home is perfectly placed between the city of Phoenix and the desert wilderness of Arizona.  Within ten minutes walk are supermarkets, restaurants and other amenities.  Stay in Scottsdale in comfort and space for a fraction of the cost of a large hotel suite.


Your pool dining and BBQ area
Enjoy relaxing in your pool under the Arizona sun.  With temperatures in the 70's through the winter and 80's to 90's in the spring and autumn, and over 300 days of sunshine a year, Scottsdale is the place to enjoy the American lifestyle.  The summer is a hot but a perfectly okay time to visit with the pool and air conditioning keeping you cool.
