Loved our stay
Kimberly and her husband were excellent hosts. They met us when we arrived and came with a box of pastries to welcome us. The house was well furnished, comfortable, and interesting. The neighborhood was quiet, good for early morning walks. I hope we are able to return for another visit.

Delayed Perfection Ahhh!
Our arrival for a planned 17 day stay was delayed for four days, then we were met by unusual chilly weather. However, Kimberly and Bob are outstanding owners. The very best, responsive, fun, fair and great communicators without being intrusive. The house is as described, a flourish of amenities inside, plush linens, hideaway tv by the spa tub, fully stocked kitchen, clean,beautiful, huge back patio, secluded and safe. The weather turned out perfect! The beautiful and bountiful lemon tree provided a tasty pitcher of fresh lemonade. Kimberly had marvelous recommendations on where to eat, what to see and do since this was our first trip to Tucson. When the washer/dryer went kaput…they replaced it within hours That’s responsive! We’ll return to Tucson but only when Poets Retreat Ahhh is awaiting! Our highest recommendation!

About the host

Hosted by Kimberly August

Host profile image
I am a native Tucsonan, small business owner and broadcast television captioner. My husband is a retired municipal firefighter. We've been married 32 years and counting! He's the best thing that ever happened to me!

Why they chose this property

This is the perfect central Tucson location! A great neighborhood with street lights where people walk with their children and dogs in the evening or bike to one of several nearby restaurants. So close to shopping, theaters, golf, tennis, zoo, fitness track. We used to live on the outskirts of town but we feel so much more connected to our community living in midtown. Tucson is a great town; big enough to be interesting and vibrant, small enough to be friendly, and Poet's Retreat captures it all.

What makes this property unique

This property truly embodies Southwestern Desert living. Whether you spend time indoors or out, it's our climate that draws people to the Sonoran Desert. We hope our visitors enjoy an 'authentic' desert experience in the modern day.
