What a wonderful exclusive B&B. Sally treated us like a king and queen. Our room included a big sitting area, excellent decore, a big two person shower, separate jetted tub, and private walled patio, and an outdoor shower. Breakfast included homemade croissant rolls, and a personal botanical garden tour afterwards. We didn't brave the unheated pool, though the pool area was surrounded by desert plants, including blooming cactus and orange blossoms. Unfortunately, we had to cut out trip short, but Sally without hesitation gave us a refund for circumstances beyond our control. We shall return!!!

My friend and I spent one night at Cactus Cove and it was beautiful serene place to stay! Our room had all the amenities we could ask for and the pool area was amazing. Our host Sally warmly welcomed us and breakfast was delicious. I highly recommend staying here and plan to go back again in the future.

Extraordinary B&B
What a wonderful surprise it was to arrive at Cactus Cove! Just outside Tucson, it is an extremely scenic, beautifully decorated home with only 4 lovely units. Great privacy, peace, with mountain and desert views. The owner, a generous, accommodating, interesting woman, treats guests like family, making sure they have everything they need. The breakfasts, each day with an international flair, were delicious!

Cactus Cove is such a special and memorable place with a lot of character. The woman who runs the B&B, Sally is talented, thoughtful and sweet. The view from the back of the house of the mountains and gardens is stunning. The breakfasts were delicious! We loved the jacuzzi tub in our room and the L'Occitane bath products. What a magical place. If we return to Tucson, we'd like to stay at Cactus Cove again.

Thank you, James for this nice review of 8. Would have liked for you to make comments. Usually I receive 10 reviews. Need to know what I can improve to get a 10 from you. After 21 years of having Cactus 🌵Cove I have changed things according to my guests wishes. It is always nice to have guests comments. Will ask Humana for more of those masks. Thank you for that suggestion at breakfast.

Like visiting family in a heavenly venue. Sally, the owner/host, is the embodiment of peace, joy and friendship the entire B&B reflects. Even our fellow guests were delightful. Sally and her assistant Esther prepared wonderful breakfasts each day presented on unique, and elegant place settings daily. Sally’s botanical garden is grand. Tucson has no better ambassador. My wife and I love her. ❤️

Beautiful Lodging/Too many rules
This is staying in someone's home, this is not seperate lodging. The rooms are lovely, but you must be willing to give up some personal privacy, and succumb to the owners demand to get to know you, and tell you about herself. If you are willing to abide by some "house rules" this place is perfect, otherwise you may want to look elsewhere.

You did not put your name so do not know what you are talking about. Never had any one state this about rules. I do meet everyone when they arrive to at least say Hi find where they are from, get their ideas of what they can eat for breakfast, where to park, WiFi password. You have your own entrance so come and go like you please. No rules here. . So sorry you were not pleased.

A perfectly peaceful B&B for a romantic getaway
We loved everything about Cactus Cove. Sally is responsive, accommodating, and a delight to talk to. The property is very clean and the location is incredibly peaceful. The bed was comfortable and the jetted bath and outside shower were wonderful. A freshly made breakfast was served outside while we chatted with the other couple who stayed the previous night, who also had nothing but glowing remarks about their stay.

Great Place to stay in Tucson
We wanted a place to stay but not in downtown Tucson. Cactus Cove was brilliant! Sally greeted us with a very warm welcome and made us feel immediately at home. Beautiful decor and very clean. Our stay was very comfortable . The views were stunning and Sally provided an excellent breakfast. Also, it ws great to meet the other guests. Could not recommend highly enough and will definitely be back.

A peaceful B&B nestled at the base of Mt. Lemmon
Cactus Cove is a peaceful B&B nestled at the base of Mt. Lemmon. The innkeeper, Sally, went above and beyond to make us feel very welcome during our regrettably short stay. If you're looking for an alternative to the large resorts in the Foothills, you should consider a stay at Cactus Cove. Thanks, Sally!

A gem in the desert
Cactus Cove is truly a gem in the desert. It’ is gorgeously nestled in the landscape providing a serene and lovely escape with uninterrupted views of the mountains. The enchanted locale feels far away and yet Sally the innkeeper provides every comfort that anyone could hope for in a five star resort. She too is a gem with an infectious enthusiasm for the desert and Tucson. It’s located within ten miles of the national park and other terrific hiking and reacreation areas and still handy to downtown and many dining and shopping options. We will make it an annual stay.
