Great vacation home
We had a great stay at the desert oasis! The pool and game room really helped keep everyone entertained. The fact that every room, to include the patio, had a tv with Roku was a nice touch! We paid extra for heating the hot tub and it was definitely worth it. I would have given it 5 stars except that there were some minor issues with the patio fans which is a necessity in the Arizona summer. I reported it and they messaged that they would fix it. Overall, great home situated in a nice neighborhood.

Wonderful Family Home
We stayed here for a week in early January 2025 to celebrate my eightieth birthday with our family. Traveling from around the country, we enjoyed the warmer weather in Tucson. We have stayed in numerous VRBO's and this was one of the best. The communication with the owner was timely and effective. What we most appreciated in this beautiful home:Pool and spa were great. Heating price was reasonable, pool maintenance was excellent. Kitchen was well equipped, including an air fryer, upscale Keurig that also used ground coffee.Dining room table seated 12 people.Game room was a hit with our grand kids. My grandson was able to beat me in foosball.It was a perfect place for my birthday celebration and family memories.We would definitely stay here again!

INCREDIBLE VACATION SPOT!
This vacation home over exceeded our expectations and the amazing pictures don't even do this property justice! It is truly an INCREDIBLE vacation spot for a large family to enjoy. The accommodations were perfect. The kitchen was great to cook in, the rooms were comfortable and fit all 8 of us with plenty of room to spare, the game room was a blast and the swimming pool was everyone's favorite part. The views are magnificent of Tucson, especially from the balcony and really beautiful at night. The correspondence with the property owner/manager was great too. They were quick to respond to all of our questions and helped us with everything we needed. We all really enjoyed our time at the Desert Oasis!!!
