About this property

4BR, 2-house compound close to UA, Downtown Tucson

Welcome to The Hampton House!
Experience a charming, retro-inspired retreat in Tucson, perfect for families, friends, or work trips. Accommodating up to 10 guests, it features a spacious 3-bedroom main house and a cozy 1-bedroom poolside casita. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or seeking a relaxing escape, Hampton House offers a unique blend of comfort and style in an ideal central location.

Comfort & Style
Built in the 1940s and beautifully restored in 2021, the 1,100-square-foot main house combines vintage charm with modern comforts. Inside, you'll find a mix of new and antique furniture, including striking pieces from Japan and Hong Kong.

The primary bedroom boasts a king-size bed, an en-suite bathroom, and direct access to the backyard. The other bedrooms offer full- or queen-sized beds, perfect for relaxing after a day exploring Tucson. The back opens onto a red-brick courtyard with a swimming pool (not heated), covered patio with bar and grill, and outdoor seating, ideal for lounging and dining.

The separate guest house, a.k.a. the casita, provides a private space with a queen bed, a small living area with a twin-sized day bed, and a compact kitchen.

Prime Location & Attractions
Nestled in a historic residential neighborhood just north of the University of Arizona, The Hampton House offers easy access to many of Tucson’s top spots. It’s less than a mile north of the UA campus, the Banner-University Medical Center, and all of the UA’s sports facilities.

It’s also less than a 10-minute drive from Downtown Tucson’s vibrant restaurants, bars, and cultural venues. And in 15 minutes, you can be in the scenic foothills of the Catalina mountains. The house is also an easy 20-minute drive from Tucson’s airport. As Tucson is a UNESCO City of Gastronomy, you'll find plenty of acclaimed restaurants and local cafes nearby.

Full disclosures
Not a heated pool: The swimming pool is always open, but it is not heated. This means that swimming from late October through much of April will be a chilly exercise. The ideal swimming season is from May through September.

No hot tub: There pool does not have a hot tub. It does have a small, seating area that looks like it is a hot tub, but the water here is the same temperature as the rest of the pool.

Casita living: While the main house has central air and heat, the casita uses one portable and one wall air conditioner as well as space heaters. Guests staying in the casita should travel with sweats to help stay warm.

Noise: The Hampton House is in a residential area where some of the neighbors are university students. As such, there may be times when noise levels rise because of student parties. These likely will not disturb your stay, but please let us know if you experience any neighborhood disruptions so we can work to resolve.

Hot showers: Water can take some time to warm up, especially at the beginning of your stay. If you find that the water for a shower or from the sink is not getting warm, turn it on in the hot position and let the water run for several minutes. If it continues to be stubborn and not warm up, let us know so we can troubleshoot.

Pets: As a general rule, we do not accept guests traveling with pets. However, we welcome guests with service animals and we will consider allowing other dogs to stay. Please talk to us about your pup if you’re interested.

Kids: Children are welcome at The Hampton House, but please be advised of the following: The Hampton House is not child-proofed and does not have any child-focused amenities. Also, the swimming pool is not surrounded by a safety fence and there is cactus within reach of little hands.

This is the second time we’ve stayed here. Nice place. Nothing fancy but has what you need. Clean. Good location, easy access. Very responsive and friendly host- even left some lovely Christmas cookies as a welcome.

A fantastic place to stay.

I have stayed in many VRBOs over the years and this by far was the best place I have stayed. WELL worth the price. Check in was the easiest I have had. My daughter and I stayed two weeks and enjoyed every minute of it. We especially love the back yard. While it was too cold to swim we simply enjoyed the lighted covered patio while enjoying our favorite beverage. The bedroom and bathrooms were perfect for our stay. The location is great too. Not far from the UofA and 4th Ave. I truly hope for our next visit we can come back here. Hopfully at a time so we can use the pool. Thanks!
