The Prickly Pear by Curated Stays: King Bed

We love the Prickly Pear. It was the first house we purchased and remodeled for guests. It has many lovelies in it which are precious to us: copper plates sourced from Mexico in the 1960s, art and mirrors from all around Texas, and amazing clerestory windows above the whole living/dining/kitchen which bathe the home in beautiful, natural light all day long. It's near the Expo Center and airport and close to ACU. Please contact us for a video tour of the property.

Enjoy:

Tranquil recovery

Deirdre was most generous and helpful as we needed a healing place for emergency post-op recovery for my wife. A small hiccup at check in was easily overcome and the property provided a well-equipped, comfortable and tranquil setting for recuperation.
