This was our second time staying at Joyce's beautiful home in Tucson, and once again, we had a wonderful experience! There's a reason we chose to come back. The home is charming, comfortable, and has a warm, cozy atmosphere that makes it easy to settle in and relax.The backyard is truly one of our favorite features. It's a peaceful little oasis and the perfect place to unwind. The location is fantastic, the home is exactly as described, and the accommodations are comfortable and inviting.Joyce is an exceptional host! She's friendly, responsive, understanding, and genuinely cares about her guests having a great experience. Her hospitality is one of the things that makes this property so special.If we had to offer one small piece of constructive feedback, it would be that a few areas could use a little extra attention to dusting. Nothing significant, and certainly nothing that negatively affected our stay.Overall, we absolutely love this property and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. We've stayed twice now, and we're already looking forward to our next visit. Thank you again, Joyce, for another wonderful stay!

The home is beautiful inside. Very comfortable. The backyard is gorgeous and just a lovely place to relax. The kitchen had everything we needed to make our meals, including a Nutribullet, which we loved. Bedrooms and beds were wonderful.

Great location for a base to explore the Tucson area. We loved coming home each day to this cool little oasis and sitting in the evening watching the sunset for the cozy backyard. Joyce was very attentive and we had everything we needed. Especially appreciated the coffee beans for the week! Nice treat!

I enjoyed the bottle of wine that welcomed us. A unique feature was the weights and workout equipment. I usedi them several times. The king bed in the master bedroom was OUTSTANDING! I slept like a baby! The outside cloister was very Zen.

Staying at Joyce's house was a real joy! Clean,organized and super comfortable. Beautifully decorated with everything we needed for our 3 week stay. The kitchen was a joy to prepare meals in and the courtyard off the kitchen in the back was peaceful,complete with a water feature. Joyce was a wonderful,respectful host. The neighborhood has a suburb feel,quiet yet close to rural spaces so we often heard coyotes yipping and the sky dark enough to see brilliant stars. A lovely experience in every way.

Thank you so much for this beautiful review! It was an absolute joy hosting you for your three-week stay. I am so glad you felt right at home and enjoyed cooking in the kitchen and relaxing in our backyard. Hearing the coyotes and stargazing under our dark desert skies is truly one of the most magical parts of living here, and I'm thrilled you got to experience that. You were wonderful guests, and we would love to welcome you back anytime!
