Tucson Bed and Breakfast - Cactus

“A Real Cactus Experience!”

 

Sally is such an amazing Hostess and an excellent cook. Breakfasts were wonderfully tasteful and very visually appealing. The attention to room detail and special "daily treats" were just remarkable.

Sally has truly dedicated herself to providing a comfortable, relaxing environment; tasteful, well thought-out breakfast menus; and information/education of the surroundings her guests.

I knew the environment of Cactus Cove, with all of the beautiful cactus displays and cactus paintings would be exactly how I imagined my 'Cactus experience' to be.

Staying at Cactus Cove was part of a life experience. Our stay will never be forgotten.

We will always hope to stay again.
