About this property

The Casita - A Private Guesthouse

Set on a 2.5 acre estate, this Sonoran guest house is separate from the main house with it's own private drive and entrance. Plenty of large windows let the desert sun shine on beautiful tile floors and custom kitchen.

The Casita is priced weekly. Weekly rates vary from $400 in the Summer to $600 in the Winter months.

Enjoy quiet afternoons poolside or in the hot tub located just outside your front door; or fire up the gas grill and dine on the patio.

Guest Interaction
We are available by text and telephone as necessary. We respect the privacy of our guests and want to insure your comfort. The main house has it's own driveway, and is very much set apart from the guest house.

The Neighborhood
Casas Adobes is a quiet residential neighborhood located in NW Tucson just off the Oracle/Ina intersection. Meandering streets and gentle hills make a great place to walk or jog. 3 blocks to shopping, casual and fine dining, coffee shops - even a Whole Foods!

Getting around
There is plenty of room to park on the private driveway that runs behind the Casita. The property is about 25 minutes from Tucson International Airport.

Perfect cozy comfortable rental.

This rental is perfect for one or two people. I stayed on my own while shopping the gem shows for my business and it was a quick, pleasant, easy drive out of the hustle and bustle of the city centre. Safe, quiet and comfortable.

Great quiet comfortable Tucson location

This is my second time staying in this Casita. The Property is well cared for. Very clean and quiet inside. I was there Mid July to see family. The pool was a nice refreshing perk to my visit. For the money it would be hard to find something better in Tucson. Highly recommended.

Enjoyable

Nice and clean and well stocked for two guests. No bath soap was only complaint and didn’t here back from owner until after we’d gone and bought some after second or third day. Owner very apologetic, however. We would stay here again. Nice and quiet in a very nice neighborhood.

Excellent!

This was our first time using anything other than Hotels.com I felt bad because when we pulled up one of the blinds it got stuck in the up position. I texted Kyria right away and she was very understanding. It was a great experience, the Casita was so cute! The view of the mountains from the hot tub was amazing. Fantastic host, hubby and I will definitely be back.

The location was terrific! It is off the main road close to shopping and not too far from the mountains but in a charming subdivision where the houses are quiet and well-maintained. The casita was nice with the exception of the mattress. It felt like a cot mattress. We had a few issues come up. The cups were dirty in the kitchen, the bolt came off the track of the bathroom pocket door( Mr. Terry was very kind and resolved it quickly). The pool and hot tub were very dirty as the pump was not working. Kyria was quick to have the pool company out to clean but it didn't stay clean as the vacuum was not running. We were told it was fixed but we don't think it was. Truly, I wanted to love this place. We will be visiting Tucson often and want a place we can return to each time. However, we did not find the owner to be very friendly. She did what she needed to but when we spoke with her to get instructions for the hot tub, she was quite pretentious and made us feel very uncomfortable. She further requested that we not use the hot tub more than once a day because the gas is expensive. We could have gotten past the little nuances but the whole encounter with her just really turned us away.

The property was nice. We had a private pool. We also had a private hot tub but we didn't use it. The inside was pretty clean, although the towels were dirty and not cleaned. When talked with the owner she brought new ones. We ended up buying our own face wash rags because we didnt want to keep bothering the owner. The previous renters did, what i think was dog urine, all over the rug, therefore the entire pleace smelled like dog urine for the whole week we were there. She did have the carpet cleaned on the 3rd day we were there but it didnt help with the smell, so we bought a candle to help.

CHARMING CASITA, GREAT LOCATION

Beautiful property and very charming casita. We loved the private, fenced area to enjoy in the sun by the pool. We felt comfortable, safe and relaxed to know that our dog was safely contained....also relaxing by the pool. Xander was very attentive to our couple of needs.
