Spring Break '25

The property is great for entertaining. It is centrally located to several great restaurants. Our check-in was not great (while it probably won't happen to anyone else, it was probably a one-time issue). I felt like the communication responses were immediate, but AI generated. One of the local manager's number given to us was to someone who no longer manages the property. It took a little less then an hour to get in the house. Once in the house, the electricity wasn't working in part of the house. We were not able to make dinner the first night because of it. The property owner did not offer any concessions for these inconveniences.

Highly recommend

House was lovely, well-appointed and clean. The location worked great for us - felt private but very close to grocery and restaurants and easy to get around to places around Tucson. The manager was very responsive to any questions. I will definitely recommend this place to others who might be visiting Tucson.

Beautiful stay for vow renewal

Beautiful property, views are amazing and the location is great, easy to get on the highway. Great space for hosting a party. Furnishings were comfortable and a/c worked great! The outdoor area was fairly messy and the windows indoors had very large cobwebs, it was clear that those don’t get clean very often. Other than that the rooms were clean and we had a pleasant stay. The property manager is really nice and prompt with responses. He was able to send someone over very quickly when we weren’t able to figure out how to work the sound system.

Comfortable house with great views

This house was ideal for 5 adults over the holidays. The backyard and the views from the living room are amazing. Important to note for future guests is that the house is lacking some vacation home essentials - be prepared to bring or buy all kitchen basics like oil, basic spices, coffee filters, etc. The home could use updated rugs, towels, and better bath products, plus reorganizing the kitchen cabinets which contain unnecessary items. Overall, it’s a comfortable home, just lacking the nice finishing touches that make vacation homes 5-star. While the host was quick to reply, unfortunately he miscommunicated about checkin time and did not respond in a professional manner or offer to address the inconvenience.

Gorgeous vacation home away from home

This property is both beautiful and comfortable. My husband and I stayed here for a week with our two young children. While the bedrooms were cozy and the views from the enormous living room windows were picturesque, we spent most of our time in the outdoor living areas. When traveling to Arizona, the pleasant climate begs to be enjoyed, and there are no better places to enjoy it than this property's multi-level patio, outdoor kitchen, and hot tub. We ate meals, played games, watched gorgeous desert sunsets, and spotted numerous constellations from the patio and hot tub. Our children loved seeing cacti and wild desert rabbits in their own back yard. The property manager is friendly and responsive. It is easy to access downtown Tucson and the entrance to Saguaro Nat'l Park from this property. I'd love to go back and stay for a month!

Amazing Property!

My family and a couple of friends needed a place to stay while we were in town for my dad's funeral. I was looking for a place were we could be together outside and chat or play a game together in the evening. The property was absolutely perfect for our needs particularly in the outside area because there were lots of places around the yard to have a smaller conversation or gather as a larger group. We loved the lower area with firepit and dining table to gather around for a meal and play a game. The inside of the house was very cool! It had a mid-century/modern vibe which we loved and huge picture windows overlooking the beautiful Arizona desert. Steve was very responsive and the instructions at the house were thorough so there was no need to contact him once we were there. The kitchen was especially well stocked in terms of any cooking items you might need and we did make a couple of meals there. I would highly recommend this stay!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! This home is in a great location and close to wonderful restaurants and shops. The house is beautifully decorated and was very comfortable.

Cute, fun and cozy.

Over all experience was great! Clean outdoor patio was awesome for gatherings speakers all through out, kitchen had everything was fully stocked. Dining table was big and great for a family dinner. Beds where super comfy. If your looking to lounge around in the living room this is not the spot couches were uncomfortable. Tv was outdated and speaker was blown out. Also washer didn’t work and was kinda bummed it would have been nice to wash before we left. Other then that our stay was great.

About the host

Hosted by Velo Vacation Rentals LLC Alschuler

Host profile image
Velo Vacation Rentals was incorporated in 2021 in Boulder, Colorado with the mission of identifying unique properties around the world near excellent road bike riding, mountain bike riding, and/or gravel bike riding. Each property is hand selected by Velo Vacation Rentals staff so guests can be confident a Velo Vacation Rental property has been modernized, is well appointed and fully stocked, has excellent outdoor living spaces, and most importantly has great nearby cycling opportunities.

Why they chose this property

Casa Velo was the very first property chosen as a Velo Vacation Rental property because Tucson is a world class cycling destination perfect for both winter and spring training. Casa Velo has incredible outdoor living spaces with custom metal artwork featured throughout the property, both inside and outside. The home has been completely remodeled on the inside allowing guests to experience beautiful burnt adobe construction while still enjoyed an updated kitchen and updated bathrooms. A new HVAC system was installed in 2020, and modern home automation has been installed throughout the house available for guests to use during their stay. For example, guests can stream music from their phone to a 3 zone Sonos stereo system with the living room, back patio, and outdoor fire pit area each being separate zones.
