A very nicely appointed condo in a beautiful location. Wendy and Alan communicate clearly and are very responsive hosts. We look forward to returning to Saguaro Escape!
Absolutely perfect location to visit our family! Wonderful walking trails and hiking food and fellowship around every corner! So easy to find and the accommodations were amazing!! We will definitely be back!
Great location adjacent to Ventana Canyon and 5-6 minutes to beautiful Sabino Canyon. The kitchen is very well-stocked and the beds are very comfortable. The complex has an excellent gym facility and 2 heated pools and hot tubs. All in all a great vacation destination.
The condo was just as described. It had everything we needed and more. Love the personal touches like the yoga matts, bathrobes and information about the area. Super clean. Wendy and Alan are great communicators and kept in touch to make sure we had what we needed. Complex is quiet, great hiking trails right out the back door. Highly recommend.
The unit is located in a nice complex in a quiet and beautiful area with nice views of the mountains and the Tucson valley. The condo is nice and extremely clean and stocked with all the amenities you need for a nice stay. The condo is near restaurants and shopping areas. We especially liked having access to nearby canyon trails including the Ventana Canyon Trail, which starts behind the complex, Sabino Canyon Trail, and Catalina Canyon Trail. These canyons are beautiful and have an abundace of wildlife. The hosts were nice and responsive and check-in and check-out were quick and easy.
Condo was lovely. It’s located in a serene area in the Catalina Foothills & you felt like you were up against the mountain.
It was well equipped, comfortable & very clean.
Host was very responsive & attentive.
Perfect home base in the Catalina foothills for our week-long January vacation in Tucson. Lovely condo with fully equipped kitchen and comfortable living room and beds. We even took advantage of the pool and tennis courts. So close to Sabino Canyon recreation area, and we enjoyed more distant outings to both Saguaro National Parks, Pima Air & Space Museum, and the San Xavier del Bac Mission. We would definitely return to this property if we visit Tucson again in the future.
Lovely location and very functional. Had everything we needed. Loved the pool and screened porch. We couldn’t figure out how to work coffee maker but they had a back up pour over coffee pot. We would definitely stay again.
Comfortable condo, bright space in wonderful location
My husband and I stayed here for 11 nights and we were very comfortable. The condo is quiet, comfortable with lots of light, and a well-stocked kitchen. The patio is great space for sunset dinners. One suggestion is a king bed. The location is great, close to Sabino and Ventana canyon, Saguaro NP, Catalina SP, plus lots of good restaurants nearby. Highy recommended.

It’s an amazing condo . It is a home away from home . The condo was absolutely beautiful and very clean . Had everything you need . I would again at this condo . The Host was very considerate and would reply promptly . I highly recommend this property!
Property was perfect. Nice base camp to explore the city and the surrounding country. Both rooms were really nice and having a full kitchen was an added bonus. Would definitely stay here again.
The location and amenities of Saguaro Escape were great. Beds were comfortable, and the complex was close to everything we were interested in. Ventana Canyon hike is a must see.
