Strong Building materials for STR

I am wanting to do an Airbnb and have an opportunity to pretty much gut the house. It's an older 1960's (In Arizona thats an older home) home and I am thinking since I will be stripping it to the bones I would like to replace the plumbing. I know this is not a good ROI because it doesn't add value, but since I am really opening up the house I will have an easier time than ever to just take care of it and be worry free for 30 plus years. Are there any particular type of material that is better than others for plumbing for long term use?

When redoing this house the two themes I would like to stick with for this home are durability and ease of cleaning.   I am thinking of dong concrete flooring for this reason. That's really all I got right now. Does anyone have any other recommendations for how to really tenant proof a home?

As you can probably tell I am not handy or knowledgable about materials so I apologize in advance for my ignorance.
