About this property
Private Hilltop Oasis Overlooking City Lights
Summary:
Perched on a scenic hilltop with panoramic views of Tucson’s city lights and desert landscape, this spacious 4-bedroom, 3-bath home offers the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure. Whether you're sipping your morning coffee as the sun rises over the mountains or stargazing from the spa under Arizona’s clear night skies, this desert retreat is your personal slice of Southwest paradise. With 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms there is plenty of room for families, couples, or groups of friends.
The Space:
This unique hillside home is thoughtfully designed across two levels, making the most of its elevated setting and sweeping views.
The main entrance is on the upper level, where you’ll find the heart of the home. This top floor features a spacious kitchen, an open family room, dining area, a cozy pool table room, the primary bedroom with ensuite bath, and a guest bedroom with a nearby full bathroom. Large windows bring in natural light and frame breathtaking views of the city and surrounding desert.
Because the home is built into the hillside, the lower level isn’t underground—instead, it opens directly out to the pool and spa area, making it perfect for indoor-outdoor living. Downstairs, you'll find a relaxed TV room and two additional bedrooms that share a full bathroom. It’s an ideal setup for families or groups who want space to spread out, with plenty of room for both gathering and quiet retreat.
Whether you're cooking dinner with a view upstairs or heading down for a swim and sunset soak, the layout of this home offers comfort, privacy, and seamless access to the best of Tucson’s beauty.

We really loved our stay at this house! It was nicely equipped, comfortable and in a great location. The mountain views and valley vistas are top notch! We enjoyed the pool, grill and all the outdoor spaces. The area is super quiet, safe and private. Tons of birds for great bird watching. Communication with the host was excellent as well. Would stay again and recommend!
Amazing location with great views! Close to mountain trails and also close to shopping etc. Very private and quiet!

Will Rent Again!
This property is gorgeous, well maintained, clean, quiet, has an amazing view of the city, is close to the national parks and many walking trails of various degrees. Property management was very helpful and prompt when responding to even the smallest inquiry. My son, who lives in the area, described it as "big pimpin'" but it was far more affordable than what we would've spent on hotel rooms for the 6 of us. We hope to rent it again the next time we come to visit! Thank you!
Having stayed in many VRBO properties over the years, we were hesitant to book this property for lack of reviews. Having an establish company like Tucson Vacations representing this rental convinced us to go ahead. Boy, are we glad we did! Hilltop Retreat has everything, from being exceptionally clean and updated, to being located in a very private quiet natural environment complete with numerous Saguaro Cactus! This home has amazing day and night views of Tucson from the Pool and covered Deck area, surrounded by the beautiful Mountain landscape. Top it all off with prompt, excellent communication with our Host Gina, we would absolutely recommend this home and would not hesitate to book it again!
I’ve stayed at several properties in Tucson over the past six years, but this one was by far the best. The veranda is one of the home’s finest features overlooking the swimming pool, the valley below, and the city and mountains beyond. I especially loved opening the sliding glass door of the master bedroom and stepping directly onto the veranda, where a small sofa offers a sweeping view along its entire length. The scene on a partly cloudy day is simply magnificent. I spent hours there on several occasions.The living room is very comfortable, with a spacious sectional sofa and a large wall-mounted TV perfectly positioned for easy viewing. Reaching the property involves a short ascent up a hill, after which you arrive at a generous parking area and a two-car garage. The garage is especially convenient because it’s fully open with no divider between the spaces, making it easy to pull in, and even easier to exit thanks to the wide, flat surface behind it.
This property is stunning! It is located up on a hill. It is very peaceful and quiet. The views are spectacular! The house is large and very clean. It had everything a family of four needed. My teenage boys had the entire downstairs to themselves with 2 bedrooms, a full bath, and a living area with big screen TV. The parents had the run of the upstairs with a master suite, a super comfy couch in the living area with a large screen TV. The outside has plenty of comfy seating and an amazing pool! Be aware, the pool is deep. 4-8 feet. So, if you are traveling with little kiddos bring life jackets. It was perfect for us. The boys had a blast splashing around. The host was very responsive! Overall, I highly recommend this location!
We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay! Peaceful, relaxing, private, and beautiful views. It was far enough away from everything, but close enough to get out and about. Would definitely recommend and would stay here again.
The view from the veranda is one of my favorites in Tucson, it takes in the beautifully landscaped back yard, the adjacent neighborhood and the majestic mountains on the horizon. When it's cool in the morning and at sunset, I love watching YouTube videos while feeling the breeze and occasionally moving my eyes to take in the wide angle view. Parking in the 2 car garage is the most effortless of any house I've rented, a real stress reliever. The master bedroom has an amazing stone floor walk in shower and a very comfortable Sleep number bed.
