Luxury living in the Sonoran Desert.
Nestled in the beautiful Tortolita Mountain Foothills, encircled by 27 holes of Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf, the best golf in all of southern Arizona, and with one of the world’s most celebrated resort hotels at its core, The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Dove Mountain is perhaps the epitome of Southwest desert living. The temperate climate allows residents to enjoy an indoor/outdoor lifestyle virtually all year-round, not just in in the fall, winter and spring seasons for which the region is famous.
The Tucson area receives an average of 12 inches of rain a year, primarily in late summer and early winter, nourishing a profusion of flora and fauna. You’re undoubtedly familiar with the distinctive Saguaro cactus, exclusively found in the region. But, there is a wide variety of other natural vegetation to be found here, including Prickly Pear cactus, Desert Willow, Western Wildflower, Cave Primrose, Desert Lupine, the Ghost Flower, Devil’s Claw and the Christmas Cactus, among other varieties.
The wildlife of Dove Mountain is fascinating. The Sonoran Desert is home to species like the Great Horned Owl, the Golden Eagle, the Black-chinned Hummingbird, Gambel’s Quail, the Hooded Oriole and the Cactus Wren, Arizona’s official bird.
The lifestyle here is fascinating and delightful, in addition to graceful, luxurious and fun.
