Fine for a short stay
The villa was neatly decorated and had a lot of character. The landscaping was beautiful, the life tree was magical. The fridge was dirty, the pillows were flat and the extra ones were stained, the shower head needed to be replaced… quiet neighborhood, but we will probably not be back.

Lovely Morning in May
The desert garden was wonderful. Sitting on the porch with coffee, flowers and birds. I relaxing time in May to start the day. We had a very comfortable stay with everything we needed; plenty of all the necessities. The only problem we had was that we didn’t have the welcome book with directions on how to turn the cooling system off and were not sure as to actually start the laundry.

Serene, sparkling clean and perfect location
Lovely casita with comfy bed, beautifully tiled kitchen, and peaceful cactus garden with hummingbirds. Early morning walks in the neighborhood and saw 2 coyotes at 6:30 AM. Easy walk to coffee shops and access to central Tucson, Sabino canyon, Tohono Chul and Botanical Garden. Much more pleasant than a hotel room. Make your reservation now!

Clean, Convenient, and Private
We really love this little casita which is centrally located to everything. The layout is a little different, but it is very well maintained! This was our first visit to Tucson and spent a lot of time exploring. We enjoyed spending the mornings and evenings in the cozy backyard. The only thing we could recommend is new beds/mattresses - they weren’t as comfortable as we would’ve liked. We do plan on returning in the future and we will be looking to book this casita.

First VRBO booking
The exterior is as cute as shown in photos, although the bicycles are not in working condition. We took frequent walks in the neighborhood and felt completely safe. There are several grocery stores, restaurants and coffee shops a short distance from the casita, so this location worked well for us. Unfortunately, the housekeeping gets a failing grade. A pair of socks from a previous guest were left on the floor near the edge of the bed, as well as dust bunnies under the bed, there was an unpleasant odor (presumably mold) in the bathroom closet and I discovered after starting to wash the sheets, that there was dried blood on the mattress pad, also from a previous guest. This lack of detailed cleaning was a dealbreaker for us.

Clean, basic, a bit quirky layout, beautiful landscaping, and functional. The cleanness was superb and the local vibe was captured in the furnishings. Our family felt safe, even though there were a lot of people loitering just outside the neighborhood (towards the city area). The house felt safe, warm, and the energy-efficient shower was comfortable (even if a bit touchy). We enjoyed our 3-night stay.

Cute and Super Roomy Casita
This casita was surprisingly spacious with lots to offer. Besides a queen bed with TV and kitchenette and bathroom on one side, there’s a whole other half with living room and dining area. Everything is comfortable and clean and they provide everything you might need during your stay. The area is quiet and the area felt safe to us.

Great mid-town location
This was an ideal location for our stay in Tucson. We enjoyed the nearby Tucson Botanical Gardens and our trip up to Summerhaven. Neighborhood was great with many older but well-maintained and interesting properties. Our dog enjoyed the small, but interesting yard. The only issues was the lockbox code was never sent to us and we did not start the laundry as there were guests in the main house, probably still sleeping when we left.

CHARMING CASITA‼️
It was even more charming than the listing claimed. We enjoyed morning coffee in the cozy patio/garden (lemons, lizards, cacti, hummingbirds included). The Southwest decor was perfect (including a DeGrazia print). Our granddaughter (a student at U of AZ loved to hang out with us there (something she doesn’t do at home). Highly recommend this “charming casita”!
