The property was clean and well decorated, with a beautiful view of the mountains.We are from the Tucson area and reserved this property, from Friday to Monday, solely to have access to a private pool for the weekend as my adult daughters were visiting.Unfortunately the pool was unusable. When my wife and I arrived Friday after work we were looking forward to a relaxing float in the pool. When I noticed the condition I reached out the the local contact who made a suggestion to get the pool vacuum running again, it worked, but only for a short time. I then texted him again stating we were picking our daughters up from the airport on Saturday, could we get someone to come by and look at it.Mid morning Saturday a neighbor stopped by to see if he could do anything for the pool. He looked at it and immediately said he could not, it was so murky you could not see the vacuum at the bottom.This gentleman was very kind and generously offered the use of his pool while he was running errands. Despite the awkwardness of it, we decided to use his pool.I'm sure I do not have to explain the difference between having access to a private pool all weekend to a couple hours at a neighbors house.We decided to leave Sunday, as it made no sense to stay there since we could not use the pool.I texted the local contact to try to get in contact with the owner as I felt we did not get what we paid for and should get some type of discount. I received no reply

Hi Kevin, we take it seriously when guests let us know that we missed the mark, and we wish you would have contacted the homeowner directly during your stay since their phone number is listed in the guest book. After sending your feedback to the homeowner, they’d like to share the following:
- We’re sorry to hear you encountered some maintenance issues with the pool. Unfortunately, we tried, but couldn't get the pool company to complete maintenance on the pool over the weekend. However, we did contact the neighbors for their help and they generously let you use their large pool and we’re happy to hear you enjoyed it.
- While we cannot guarantee the availability of community amenities, we do understand that these amenities play a large role when guests book a property. We do recommend that guests ask to verify if community amenities will be available at the time of booking.
- While we do regret our pool was not up to your expectations, we are happy to report that no issues were reported by the guests who stayed the following weekend. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review!
Despite the especially scorching temperatures the week we stayed, Casa Agave was the perfect retreat for us and our pups to stay cool and relax while in Tucson. The house itself was great - clean and well-appointed - and the pool was really nice. The location is in a quiet neighborhood with easy access to the Rincon district of Saguaro National Park. Not super close to downtown, but that wasn’t at all an issue for us!The only slight downside was that the place is managed by a property management company that wanted us to communicate directly with their staff by phone, rather than through the Vrbo app. We ended up not needing to contact them but having gotten ‘burned’ by this in the past on another booking site, it’s worth noting!

Our stay was wonderful!! We lived in Tucson back in 2007-2104 so it was like coming home! Casa Agave is perfect, private and had everything we needed! Only thing maybe to add would be some floating noodles for the pool and a couple more blankets to cuddle in on the couch for evenings you stay in and watch tv - but other than that it was perfection! And we got to try two new restaurants I HIGHLY recommend- Snooze for breakfast and Culinary Dropout dinner
We’ll be back to Casa Agave for sure!!
Adorable home with great view and the easiest access to Mt Lemmon and the Rincons..Super cute style with lots of attention to detail. The patio and pool are great for relaxing. A few pool floats would be the icing on the cake :) Would definitely stay again
