Glendale Gold

Steps from the stadium and Glendale's dining and shopping scene, this apartment punches well above its weight for amenities. The shared swimming pool is the obvious draw – complemented by a communal Jacuzzi and a fire pit for evenings spent unwinding with friends. Inside, the shared lounges and games area has a resort-like feel, and a commercial-grade gym means you can keep up with your routine without leaving the complex. The apartment itself is pared-back but practical, with all the essentials you'll need to feel at home. And, when you're ready to venture out, free on-site parking makes exploring the wider Greater Phoenix area as easy as it should be.

Home truths:
* Your host operates several apartments here, so the exact view, layout and furnishings might differ slightly from the photos. However, the overall quality should remain the same.
* You'll have access to the on-site gym, swimming pool, lounges, and fire pit here. They're shared with the building's other residents. Please note that pool access depends on the season and weather conditions.
* This is a garden-style apartment, so you'll need to navigate one or two flights of stairs to reach your front door. If you need a ground-floor apartment, your host can arrange that – just ask when you book.
* You're right in the Westgate entertainment area, with live music, sports events, and dining immediately across the street – it's a lively spot, so expect some ambient noise if your visit coincides with a game or event night.
* Greater Phoenix is a driving city, so you'll want a car to make the most of the area. Free parking is available at the apartment.
