Canoa Ridge Vacations from $395

This is clearly a live-in hotel as some of the places were very warn and old looking. There was a hole in one of these windows with signs of aging telling me it had been there a while. Our room was aged but in good condition. Water was not hot but aside from that I have no complaints about the room or the staff. Staff were kind.

The property was great other than a hardcore spider infestation the first evening. We had 6 spiders and 2 other crawling bugs in our room within the first 12 hours of our stay, and 8 of those hours we were sleeping. Spiders crawling up the wall behind our bed, on the wall in the bathroom, in the sink, on the floor, on the wall with the window, everywhere. We asked the staff to spray and they did quickly and it helped a lot, only found a few more spiders after that, but as a spider-hater who has stayed in AZ at this time of year 6 other times without ever encountering this issue, I can’t return. The pool was awesome and the grounds are gorgeous. Fantastic location. The room was clean other than the spiders and had a nice big fridge, full coffee pot, toaster, and cups/plates/silverware which was also great. A lot of great things, but I’d fix the large gaps around the doors to prevent the spiders, and/or spray a ton.

We had a lovely stay at the Arizona Inn. It is somewhat dated (furniture, bathroom) but it was wonderfully quiet. Our room looked out on the gardens and the mountains beyond. There was free parking across the street but no real shops around. We ate one dinner there and two breakfasts and it was all excellent. My only suggestion would be to put new plumbing in the shower. When I turned the shower on, I could not get all of water to come out of the shower head; half of it went down the drain from the spigot. Not a good thing in a desert!!

We enjoyed our stay Casino Del Sol. The room was clean and very comfortable. The choices of restaurants was also very convenient. Our family also enjoyed the pool and hot tub. We will definitely stay at Casino Del Sol again if we go back to Tucson.

This is my go to place in Tucson! So much fun and their breakfast healthy oatmeal bar is one for the books!
