Incredibly quiet and cozy place to use as a home base on our 5-day trip to the Tucson area. The location was perfect for getting to various hiking trails and restaurants, in addition to a friend's wedding that originally brought us to the area. Ami was friendly and responsive and we greatly appreciated the opportunity to relax here for the past few days!

It was a perfect stay for the short time we were there. Myself and my 2 toddlers slept comfortably in the king size bed and my son on the day bed, and husband on the couch. Unfortunately we didn't get a chance to utilize the pool as Amy offered. She has a beautiful background surrounded with a beautiful view of the mountains. My son and husband did get to go on a trail hike in the morning near here home. It was just what we were looking for. Thank you!

Ami really deserves more stars than the five we can give her. Our stay couldn’t have gone better or been located more central to our plans. The apartment/house was sparkling clean and there were nice amenities like coffee and a hot air brush along with lovely towels and shower supplies. The bed was very comfortable!Having a washer/dryer made things extra simple. Our yard was private and included a hot tub, grill, and outdoor firepit. The shared pool area was lovely. Bonus that there are chickens (just like at home) and some friendly pups.Check-in and out directions were clear and I don’t think one could ask for better communication - from restaurant suggestions to letting us know when the Great Horned Owl had taken up his perch across the road!Would consider making Tucson an annual trip just to stay here.

Clean, comfortable, spacious

We had a very nice stay. The rental was clean, comfortable, and felt like a home away from home. It was spacious, had a full kitchen, and the location made it easy to get groceries and find good places to eat nearby. The property manager was welcoming and quick to respond, which made things easy. We’d definitely consider staying here again.

The guest house was perfect for my wife and our dog for our one week stay. Well appointed, had everything we needed. Nice little fenced in area to lounge outside with the dog and great views. Loved the location, pretty secluded but close to everything on Oracle. Will stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Ami Benson

Host profile image
I am originally from Tucson but lived in Southern California for 30 years.

I came back to Tucson to be close to family, however, I realized how much I love it here once I saw the Sunsets and Monsoons again. There are so many fun things to do in this area and so many friendly people.

I am a local Realtor with Long Realty and love anything to do with houses, remodels and decor. I also love anything outside - golf, hiking, swimming - the weather here supports a lot of year round activities.

If you are thinking to come visit Tucson/Oro Valley, I am more than happy to help recommend good places to go see during your stay!
