About this property

The Cactus House-Tucson

Totally renovated with commanding views of the Catalinas and city lights, The Cactus House sits on a hill backing up to the Saguaro National Park only 9 minutes from the convention center. If you are looking for the "wow" in a vacation rental, this is it. With two decks facing east toward the city and one facing the Saguaros of its one-acre lot, there are few homes that can compare on the west side. This 4-bedroom, 2600 square foot Santa Fe delivers comfort under the beautiful Tucson sky

We truly enjoyed our stay at the Cactus House. Beautiful desert views during the day and city lights at night. Easy access to Tucson, to the airport, and to I-10 without feeling crowded. Very easy check-in and everything we needed was there. Absolutely happy with the experience.

Stunning Tucson Vista

Expansive views of Tucson and the Catalina Mountains greeted us through the massive windows as we entered the house. Wonderful, cozy gathering areas inside and out with a dining table large enough to accommodate our group of eight. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. Every area was welcoming, tastefully decorated and comfortable. Contact with the owner was easy and helpful. We would love to stay again!

Don't Hesitate

We have stayed at many VRBO properties and the Cactus House is unquestionably our favorite. Beautiful home in a spectacular setting. Well-equipped kitchen, large screen video, and lovely outdoor living areas. The hosts are wonderful to work with and responsive. Don't hesitate booking this home.

Perfectly located

We are a group of 8 friends that enjoy our yearly pilgrimage to the Tucson Gem Show. This house is the perfect place to stay! It is located far enough from the city to be able to enjoy stunning views of the mountains and city scape, but close enough to quickly get into town. With four bedrooms and two living areas, everyone had room to find their "happy place". The kitchen was well-stocked and we were able to enjoy communal meals at the large harvest table in the dining room. I can't say enough good things about this place and we would love come back!

Great place other than shower situation

Great views. Clean and kitchen well equipped. Downside was there are 4 bedrooms and only 2 showers. The master shower is open to the room so can be a little awkward depending on who has to share the showers and the make up of your party. Also, there is no cable, you need your own internet based TV service if you want channels.

Stunning views all around.

This home is newly remodeled, beautifully decorated and the furniture and beds were very comfortable. Stunning views and a lovely, quiet acre in the beautiful desert foothills. We love that there were outdoor spaces with either shade or sun and we all enjoyed the nighttime city lights. Excellent communication with the owners as well. We'll be back for sure.
