Saguaro Canyon - Luxury Desert Escape w Heated Pool-Spa & Stunning Views

10/10 Excellent

"This property has tremendous views and great amenities. Makes it very easy to spend time outdoors. Very responsive property manager, and just a good experience. I would recommend this property, as we had a great time!"

Casa de Oro: 360° Desert Views, Pool & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"This house was perfect… clean, well stocked with towels and kitchen supplies and appliances, comfortable, and so many fun things to do. We loved the pool, hot tub, and the billiards table. Lots of pool toys were available. Great location- easy access to a national park, hiking trails, shops, and restaurants. The sunsets from the back yard were unbelievably beautiful."

Fabulous Luxury Home on Quiet 2 acres

8/10 Good

"House was great. Back bedroom needs help with Ac. Comfort level of beds in the back two rooms not good. Back bedroom also needed carpet cleaned better. There was a needle in the carpet that was stepped on by one of us. Host ensured they would clean carpets. House was well stocked and comfortable."

Cosy Desert Hideaway

10/10 Excellent

"Ive stayed at this property multiple times and its always a pleasant stay. The dogs have somewhere to sniff and use the bathroom without worrying about the garbage people leave in motels, the house is always clean, and the host is always responsive and friendly to top it off the property is gorgeous. I genuinely make an effort to stay here any time I'm in the area. Cannot recommend enough."

Horizon Haven•Hot Tub•Views•Game Room•Speakeasy

10/10 Excellent

"Views were better than even represented in the photos. Spacious and tons of room for our group of 8 guys on a golf trip. Very quiet neighborhood and neighbors might not be thrilled if you get too loud outside which is understandable. Plenty of rooms and common areas to hang out indoors after dark anyways. Would stay again if needed for a large group."

VERY Private Hilltop Hacienda with Spectacular 360 Degree Views

10/10 Excellent

"Our family had a wonderful stay at this Tucson vacation home. The property was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, with everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. One of the highlights was the incredible view—waking up each morning and enjoying the beautiful desert scenery was truly special.The pool was another standout feature. It was clean, inviting, and quickly became our family's favorite place to spend time together. Whether we were swimming during the day or relaxing poolside in the evening, it added so much to our experience. The ambient heat plus the water heater made the pool perfect.The location was great, offering both privacy and easy access to Tucson's attractions. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a memorable Arizona vacation."
