New Renovations Add to Comfort
Newly repainted, newly installed flooring and new living area furniture make this a comfortable place. This is an older unit, so expectations of the latest home design will not be met. However, there is plenty of space in both bathrooms, bedrooms and kitchen, even if it is not the most up-to-date design. We all enjoyed this unit and we would readily stay here again.

Wildlife
A little down at the heel but nevertheless comfortable and well equipped. We especially enjoyed the flagstone patio where we saw a large variety of birds and animals. The location was convenient and we enjoyed the pool and a meal at the resort. A successful stay!

We loved our stay.
We just loved the casita. Great location and fabulous wildlife/bird watching from our patio. Private and quiet. We stayed 2 months and enjoyed every day. We had 4 groups of family come for a week apiece. They all enjoyed it. Thanks to Dave - we would like to come again.

One-week stay a pleasure
Located just minutes from downtown Tucson, this two-bedroom condo proved to be enjoyable. Full access to the amenities, including the pool and gym were a bonus, especially when outside temps reached the mid- to high-90s. Would recommend this property.

The location was ideal for hiking. Great trails minutes away. Beautiful Mountain Views. The place could use some updating, but I feel the price was a good value. I think the fees on VRBO are too high.

Starr Pass Resort Golf Casita
Starr Pass Resort is a beautiful property, quiet, with beautiful dessert scenery and mountain vistas. JW Marriott and golf courses are wonderful. The Tucson area has beautiful scenery, parks, hiking and restaurant opportunities. As other reviewers have mentioned this property “needs some love”. (Carpeting, bed linens and kitchen appliances need replacing). The owner was responsive to our concerns.

Wonderful location
Javalinas, mule deer, hummingbirds, Gambel's quail abound. Was visited by all within yards of patio. Bed very comfortable. Location within a developed area but felt very private. Highly recommend. Host was wonderfully understanding when we had a family ER and had to leave early. Hoping we can stay again soon. Recommend!

excellent location to golfing, biking, hiking
This unit totally fit all our needs! Beautiful scenery out the back door! Wildlife galore! Enjoyed the easy access to golfing, biking and hiking--and the pool! Everything we needed to make ourselves at home there! Grocery stores and eating places close by! Can't wait to go back next year! We have two little dogs, who enjoyed the sidewalks for their walks, and they also found themselves at home! Thanks to the Owner for all he did for us during our stay!

Excellent location for hiking, biking, golf, and relaxing. Beautiful view!
Have stayed here the last 2 yrs, and have already booked for 2020! Excellent location for all activities-golf, biking, hiking, and just hanging out. Enjoy the birds that fly in--even named a frequent hummingbird-Herbert! Fun to watch! Have seen all sorts of wild life nearby-deer, falcons, bob cat, javalina's, coyote, and the bright red cardinals! Very relaxing, our two little dogs enjoy the walk through complex, and so do we. Close to shopping and local eating establishments. Found it easy to access other areas of Tucson, and good access to highway.

golf suites at Starr Pass
Over the last two years, we have stayed in 4 different 2 bedroom, 2 bath casitas and this one was our second favorite. Everything except the TV in the king bed bedroom was in good working order. We would like to have more comfortable beds and nicer bedding. The owner was easy to communicate with. We would stay here again and enjoyed our stay overall.

Great Place--Needs a Little TLC
The casita was beautifully clean, king bed extremely comfortable, great location. An earlier review mentioned uncomfortable furniture which is true in the living room with the exception of one chair. We could have used a little more information about the area. Overall we had a great stay--with different chairs and better lamps, we'd stay again.

Beautiful location among other Casitas with east sun. Loved sitting on patio looking at the mountains an animals nearby. Property definitely needs updated to VRBO standards. Beds uncomfortable and needs deep cleaning.

About the host

Hosted by Dave McElwaine

Host profile image
As Boston natives we loved to escape to Starr Pass. Over the years we spent more and more time there and now call Tucson our home. We love cycling, Southwestern food, horses, and the 350 days of sunshine that Arizona offers.

Why they chose this property

We bought this property because of it's incredible location in the Tucson Mountains, with access to amazing trails for hiking, biking, and horseback riding. The proximity of the JW Mariott sealed the deal with it's many restaurants, bars, and a Starbucks. We start most days out on the trails, afternoons at the pool, and evenings with friends at an incredible selection of restaurants.

What makes this property unique

Starr Pass' location is unique from the standpoint that we are 15 minutes from the airport and only 4 miles to downtown Tucson....all while sitting in the Tucson Mountains, surrounded by green golf courses and spectacular views.
