Beautiful Inside and Out

Everything about the house and the property was amazing, truly a unique experience. Beautiful piece of property with lots of amenities. Well-equipped kitchen, lots of room for relaxing and eating. We enjoyed our visit immensely. Just be sure you understand that only registered guests (up to 10) can be on the property, and no one else. We ended up having to rent 2 additional casitas on the property in order to have our entire family together. I had overlooked that restriction when booking, however, the owner was extremely helpful and did everything possible to accommodate our entire family, which was very much appreciated.

Beautiful Home in Tucson

A beautiful main house in nice Tucson location. Well maintained property and kitchen fully stocked. Some confusion on in person meeting to check in, but manager assisted us. Didn't realize it was a shared compound with other rentals, but we had plenty of privacy. Would rent this gorgeous home again.

Amazing rental home

My family really enjoyed staying in this large and amazing home. The kitchen was well stocked with every cooking tool you could need, spices etc. The hot tub and massage chair were popular amenities. The master bed was adjustable (one side worked) which was great for me. Overall it was a great place for an indulgent get away.

Large home with great outdoor space

Nine adults stayed for 5 nights and enjoyed mornings on the patio and an evening dip in the large spa. Large dining area was useful as we tend to cook and eat at home more than dine out. Unfortunately, unseasonably hot weather prevented us from doing even more outdoors. Perfect set up for outdoor gatherings

I love Tucson

Great location, near sabino canyon, Safeway, restaurants. Fun outside spaces with hot tubs and onsite tortoise. Lots of inside seating with big couches. The property manager was super responsive about a rescheduled arrival date and extra supplies. The shared common space outside was unusual but worked out fine. It turned out to be a non issue, but I wish we had understood that two of the four bathrooms were in the master suite. It worked because we were all family, but it would have better to understand the arrangement ahead of time.

Great Time Once Again

We’re a group of eight men ranging in age from 72 to 90 and this is our fourth time staying here. Like in the past, this was the perfect setting for our homebase as we enjoyed nearby, restaurants and sites in Tucson. We also love the indoor and outdoor generous meeting spaces as well as using the hot tub. We definitely recommend it and will be soon booking for our next year‘s visit.
