This home features many amenities and upgrades not found in other units in this peaceful area. Whether you’re visiting for the Gem Show, Golf (you're so close, you can walk to the clubhouse in only 3 minutes), a conference at the JW Marriott (less than 1 mile away!) or just for a vacation, this is the perfect place to retreat to each night. It is conveniently located for all of the best events Tucson has to offer. Our unit offers a beautiful resort spa feel without all those nasty resort fees and add-on charges. I like all-inclusive and no surprises; I bet you do too! This recently renovated home features beautiful premium granite counters throughout, a gas range cooktop, a beautiful resort view overlooking the fairway of the 9th hole of the Palmer course with the beautiful JW & Sonoran foothills in the distance (many of the other rentals stare at other homes or parking lots)...beware! On a beautiful afternoon, open the glass sliding doors to your private patio and enjoy the fresh air and sounds of the desert. This unit also features a glass sliding door from the master bedroom to the great patio as well; A rare upgrade that allows you to enjoy the outdoors so easily from both the living room and the master bedroom. Guests may also make use of our newly added Roland upright digital piano! We often see a beautiful desert wildlife in the surrounding area. Roadrunners, Deer, Javelina and lizards to name a few. They don’t bother anyone; Just be sure to have your camera ready to snap a shot of them when they pass by! The patio is tastefully fenced to ensure that the desert wildlife doesn't interrupt your enjoyment of the space. During your stay, enjoy an invigorating hike on nearby maintained trails by day, or hit the tee-box and 18 holes of golf, then relax while streaming a movie on HBO by night. (Note: You will see a pool near the entrance to our community, however it is NOT part of our HOA---it is part of a timeshare complex.) There is no pool available. While staying in this comfortable home, stream your favorite shows and movies on the included HBO (formerly MAX) (ultimate Ad-Free version!) and FOX ONE (includes many live sporting events) services on any of the three Samsung smart TV's throughout the unit, each equipped with Roku Soundbars. Our premium ad-free HBO Max subscription includes HBO, CineMax, HGTV, Discovery, Magnolia Network, DC Movies, Food Network, Cartoon Network, TCM, TLC, Travel Channel, Adult Swim and ID. You have access to all of them! FOX ONE gains you access to many live NFL, MBL, NHL + more events as well as popular shows and on-demand playback. Other apps are loaded on the Roku for guests to login to their own accounts if they wish. This unique vacation rental gives you the get-away-from-it-all experience while still having all your conveniences close by. Parking is FREE and close to the unit—just far enough away that you don’t hear people coming and going, yet close enough that carrying in groceries and suitcases is easy—it’s perfect. You also have your own private stacked, large capacity washer/dryer combo located inside the unit. Perhaps best of all, whether you visit in the winter, summer, spring or fall, the full-suite air conditioning and heating with active Honeywell T9 thermostats will keep you comfortable throughout the entire home. The primary bedroom has a Queen bed and the second bedroom has two (2) Full “XL” beds, which are the length of a Queen bed from head to toe (so taller people aren’t short changed), but 6 inches narrower than a Queen from side to side. THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW: While it’s located within our community, the nearby pool and gym facility is privately owned and under new management. They have eliminated the previous decades-long privilege of allowing unaccompanied guests of private casita owner members to access the facilities.  As such, access to the nearby pool/jacuzzi/gym is no longer included with any of our listings or any other privately owned units.  Be aware that any golf casitas advertising pool access are likely timeshare units managed by a big timeshare company. Our casita is 100% privately owned and not a part of the timeshare company--there's no awkward sales pitches with our unit, we promise! :) There are security cameras located at this home. ALL of them are outdoors and only view outdoor areas. Cameras are located in the front front porch and view the entire entry patio and front doors. Additional cameras cameras are located outside on the back of the home and overview the back patio and landscaped grounds. These cameras are primarily for us to monitor the property exterior when guests or ourselves are not present, however their activity is recorded 24/7 and may be viewed at anytime. Booking this unit is consent to their presence and operation and is an agreement not to cover, alter, or impair their view or operation. The closet in the master bedroom is locked off. We keep our personal clothes in there to allow guests full use of the large dresser. This home is smoke and pet-free. Any guest that brings a pet into the home risks forfeiting their stay (e.g. your booking may be cancelled immediately, forfeiting the remainder of your stay). Evidence of smoking indoors, verified by a 3rd party, or bringing an unauthorized pet into the home (verified by cameras) will result in an additional cleaning fee (on top of the standard home cleaning fee) of up to $350 as permitted by Airbnb due to violation of these terms. All evidence will be forwarded to Airbnb for documentation in the guests' profile. Further, appropriate feedback will be left to warn future hosts. It's not worth it. Note that "emotional support animals" (ESA's) are considered pets, and not trained service animals under the ADA and Airbnb policies. If you have a legitimate service animal, we welcome you, and would appreciate you having the courtesy to contact us in advance. The home, while recently renovated, may undergo decorative updates from time to time. Photos will be updated upon completion of any updates, however the home theme and appearance may, from time to time, evolve between the time a guest books and stays. Any changes other than cosmetic, such as changes that would impact guest experience will be advised to guests as soon as possible.
