I loved the attention to detail. Everything you could possibly need was there. And the place was very clean, neat and beautifully decorated. The horse theme was wonderful! The gated community was safe and easily accessible.
The condo was extremely clean and decorated beautifully. Grounds are clean and quiet. Nice sized patio out back. I would definitely stay here again.

Thank you, Becky! You stayed in our casita that has a horse theme, and some rustic furnishings, blended with some antiques. And a rather spacious fenced in backyard! Glad you liked it. Thanks again for choosing Desert Morada.
We have stayed at your casita 3 times now, and each time it’s perfect!
Great location, lovely pool, comfy beds and impeccable. Thank you! I’ll be back.

We enjoyed our stay very much. The unit is well-equipped and very comfortable. The condo’s managers are responsive and available. The kitchen and laundry room were exceptional for a rental unit.

Thank you, Hali! We are happy to know you like our little oasis in the heart of the "Ole Pueblo" !
Excellent communication with Maria. The stay was exactly as advertised. Fully functional, stocked with basic essentials and beautifully kept space. Maria was immediately available for any questions and was very easy to talk with. This is truly a place I will return to.

Thank you, Ralph~ We are so happy to know you like our rental and we hope to see you again soon. Thanks again!
This was the 3rd time we have stayed at Desert Morada. This facility is beautifully landscaped and furnished. It's in a quiet, safe neighborhood close to several shopping centers. Access to the walled complex is simple and electronic. The only problem was when the dishwasher stopped working, but repair was the next day.

very average
We were charged $30 per day when our adult kids visited.
Why so much? The floors were not clean and there was no mop or swifter pads.
As long as you don't want to be in the thick of things, this is a great space for 2 to 5 people in the Tucson area. The property with 16 units is lovely landscape and very quiet. We were there in March so couldn't use the pool. For a place that's not lived in, it has the right amount of accoutrements in the kitchen including things like oil and foil that usually don't find in a lot of rentals. Plus a full size washer/dryer. Two king size beds is a fine and we were quite comfortable for the three nights we were there. Also enjoyed their personal recommendations on things to do in the area including restaurants. Had a fabulous meal at Wildflower. Communication was pronto when needed. There is a lot of paperwork to do to but that seems to be standard these days for these types of units. But as long as you're not sneaking in extra pets or trashing the place, you can easily follow along there rules including using the numerous coasters in the place. Would totally stay there again if I was in the area.

Yes, please use the provided coasters. My nice wood furniture has been damaged by those that don't.
Stayed here before - different unit this time - and second stay didn’t disappoint. Clean, good location, good amenities. We love the fenced backyard for our dog. Another fabulous stay - look forward to coming back.
