Great place in great location

Really cute and well appointed property. Only issue we had was lock box was jammed so there was a bit of a panic gaining access. Worked out by using garage as entrance but it made for a stressful beginning.

Convenient Stay

From check-in, to the location in the city, this place was conveniently located and made our trip a breeze. The main level is beautiful and updated, however the second floor was a bit lackluster in terms of its features. Overall, a clean, quiet, convenient place to stay.

Great Location - Lots of Room

We enjoyed our stay! There were a couple of items left behind from prior guests, which is no reflection on the owner. There was plenty of room for 2 couples. The kitchen was well stocked with all the tools, spices, dishware, foil, plastic wrap, etc, Top of the line appliances! It was not a major issue for us, but all of the bedrooms were on the top floor, which meant there were a lot of stairs. I would have liked to have known that before booking.

Great Place to Stay Downtown

Had a very enjoyable stay. Conveniently located (12 minutes to airport; 35-40 minutes to all major ski resorts). Very large kitchen - great for eating in. Amazing sunsets from the hilltop out the living room window. Garage was handy for the car overnight.

Almond Joy is not just another home—it’s a one-of-a-kind experience in the heart of Salt Lake City. What sets this property apart is the incredible combination of stunning views, unbeatable location, and luxurious amenities.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this location because it perfectly blends the excitement of city living with the tranquility of a quiet neighborhood. Being just one block from Temple Square and within walking distance of iconic spots like City Creek Center, The Gateway, and Memory Grove Park means we’re always close to the action. Whether it's dining at the city's best restaurants, shopping downtown, or enjoying a relaxing stroll through historic landmarks, everything is just a short walk away.

For us, easy access to world-class skiing was a must. With I-15 just minutes away, we can reach Alta, Snowbird, or Park City in just 35 minutes, making it perfect for winter adventures. And when friends and family visit, we’re just 12 minutes from the airport, which makes travel a breeze.

We chose this spot because it offers the best of both worlds—urban convenience and stunning mountain views, all wrapped up in a quiet, charming street that feels like home.

What makes this property unique

Almond Joy is not just another home—it’s a one-of-a-kind experience in the heart of Salt Lake City. What sets this property apart is the incredible combination of stunning views, unbeatable location, and luxurious amenities.
