About this property
Duende Retreat: Private Heated Pool, Walk to U of A
New Listing, Starting Late Aug 2025. Duende Retreat offers the best of both worlds: a spacious 3-bedroom main home plus a private 1-bedroom casita, all centered around your own heated pool and spa. Located just steps from the University of Arizona and minutes from Downtown Tucson and 4th Avenue’s lively dining and nightlife, it is perfect for families or groups who want both shared and private spaces.
Main House (3BR / 2BA)
Primary Bedroom: King bed with en-suite bathroom
Second Bedroom: Queen bed with hallway bathroom access
Third Bedroom: Queen bed with hallway bathroom access
Fully equipped kitchen and comfortable living areas
Casita (1BR / 1BA)
Bedroom: Queen bed with en-suite bathroom
Full kitchen and private entrance
Outdoor Oasis
Private heated pool (included at 78°F in winter months)
Spa/hot tub heated to 102°F
Lounge and seating areas for sunbathing or evenings under the stars
Guest Access
The entire home and casita are yours to enjoy. Free street parking with permits is provided, plus 2–3 spaces in the gated driveway.
Other Things to Note
Pool heating above 78°F is available for $40/night (please arrange at least 24 hours before arrival).
