Our group of four friends had a wonderful time in Tucson. The house is well laid out and in a perfect location with views of the mountains plus restaurants and shopping nearby. We really enjoyed the outdoor area with the pool and hot tub! A couple of small issues were addressed quickly by the host and the check in and check out were super easy! We highly recommend this house!!

My sisters, brothers & I had a wonderful time at Vista Veranda. The property was beautifully maintained & offered everything we hoped for. It was spacious & comfortable, not too far from the things we wanted to do but away from all the traffic & noise of a city the size of Tucson. The hosts were quick to respond to any questions we had. I recommend Vista Veranda to anyone looking for a vacation stay in the Tucson area.

My wife and I visited along with our daughter, son-in-law and 8 year old grandson. The number of bedrooms and the layout were ideal. There were plenty of bathrooms for everyone. The house was clean. The kitchen was well equipped for anything we wanted to prepare. Views of the mountains from the backyard were outstanding and good hiking trails just a few miles from the house. There were lots of outdoor seating options. Sadly the weather was a bit cool and limited our use of the pool. We did use the hot tub several times and it was great. We would certainly plan on visiting this property again if we come back to Tucson.

Tucson family vacation

The house was perfect for our family vacation and exceeded our expectations. It is well located for all of the outdoor activities that we had planned, and is an easy ride to downtown and major highways. We also appreciated the convenient access to a grocery store and several restaurants. Mountain views and sunsets from the patio are amazing!

Everything about our stay was incredible - the property itself is immaculate and just as pictured in the listing photos. The house is warm and welcoming, and there are so many small details that have been included that it truly feels like you’re staying at a spa. Laurel, the host, was particularly kind and accommodating when we made a last minute mistake with our booking. We couldn’t have had a better week here.

Perfect Family Getaway

The house is an amazing retreat for family reunions. The bedrooms coupled with en suite bathrooms allow for privacy, but the outdoor public space provides ample opportunity for lounging by the pool and sipping a drink around the fire pit in the evening. The grandkids enjoyed air hockey and sand shuffleboard and the many games provided. Laurel was an hospitable hostess and patiently answered all my questions!

Perfect for Families

This property is perfect for a family, especially if another adult is joining you as a guest. The two master suites are ideal for keeping the family on one side and creating a separate space for another adult. There are plenty of beds and room to spread out. My teenage boys enjoyed the game room and playing bags outside. The neighborhood is safe and quiet with pretty views of the mountains. There's always lots of driving when you are getting around Tucson, but this property is located in a good spot for enjoying the mountains and the city. The communication was timely and responsive and we would stay here again.

A great setting for our family

The house was clean, modern and spacious. The host has lots of little touches that made the stay so comfortable - robes, phone chargers, coffee. The beds and linens were good quality. The location was good for hiking east saguaro park and bear canyon. The pool was a little chilly but we managed a few very quick dips. It was perfect for our extended family gathering of 6 adults and 1 teenager.

About the host

Hosted by Laurel and Brian Collins

Host profile image
We are a busy family of four. We love to travel, go hiking and and hang with friends and family. We are excited to share our property with you!

Why they chose this property

This beautiful corner of Tucson has the best of both worlds - it's convenient to restaurants and shops, but also feels "out" in a natural desert landscape and at the base of the Catalina mountains. We love how secluded it feels, even though it's in a neighborhood. And it is just SO quiet and dark at night!

What makes this property unique

We've designed the home to be both beautiful and functional with lots of spaces to relax and connect while soaking up the desert sun and views.

We love to cook and enjoy time with family and friends over a meal - the kitchen is well-stocked for your convenience.

Laurel works remote and understands the importance of having a comfortable space with high speed wi-fi; we have 3 workstations in the home.
