We had a fantastic stay in Kanab! The house was great, with everything we needed! Plenty of space, very comfy beds, great location!! We spent our trip visiting the national parks, and were excited to come back to the house to relax in the hot tub and fix dinner! Thanks for a great place to stay!
We loved our time at this house. It was extremely comfortable for our family of five and was well stocked with everything we needed. Super convenient location to go to Zion and downtown Kanab. We would definitely stay here again.
What a gem! We had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful home and loved it! It had everything we would have hoped for including activities for the family and kiddos. It was a great location and beautifully decorated and setup. The host was super kind and easy to communicate with. 10/10 would recommend and would definitely stay here again.
Beautiful place with lots of room and well maintained. This place was perfect for our group with two Kings and 3 bathrooms. Very clean and close to shopping in the town of Kanab. Great hosts that were concerned about making our stay as pleasant as possible. Thanks!
Clean, comfortable, perfect location for all of Kanab's adventure spots.
Our family especially appreciated the hotbtub and backyard toys. The beds and furniture are nice and perfect for lounging after a day of adventure.
This home was the perfect base camp for our week of adventures in the area. Both our families loved it. We would highly recommend. It was one of the nicest/ cleanest homes we have rented.
What a wonderful home to make base camp for visiting the National Parks in southern Utah. King size beds and ensuites made this a perfect choice. Even was able to have a family Cornhole match! Top notch home!

So glad you enjoyed your trip. Come again anytime.
House is very well appointed. Everything works well and we couldn’t have asked for a nicer place to stay. Its location is central to all the parks we wanted to visit. Beds are super comfy. You will not be disappointed!
I have stayed at a lot of VRBOs over the years but this was by far the best managed. I was highly impressed with how this place had everything I needed/wanted. Everything from plastic utensils for the toddler to excellent guides/descriptions of good hikes! This place itself is lovely with great views, and the location is very convenient.

Thank you for your kind comments. Come again anytime.
Overall our stay was great! A Clean home. And my youngest loved the hot tub and playground. I would say the location of the home with parking was a struggle when you have two trailers with three UTV's and a quad. However we loved the convivence of the 35 min drive to the dunes. Would stay again, without our toys.
We rented this beautiful, well-maintained & well-stocked home for our family’s vacation. We visited Zion, Bryce Canyon, the North Rim of the Grand Canyon and hiked several trails around Kanab. Great town, excellent food, easy access for many outdoor adventures. The home accommodation exceeded our expectations! Comfortable beds, wonderful kitchen, nice patio & beautiful views! Would highly recommend staying here on your next visit to Kanab!

Thank you so much Rob. We're so happy you had a good time. Please come back anytime.
The Blue Tortoise was an amazing experience! Super clean and organized. It had everything we needed and was conveniently located to everything we wanted to do. Kanab also had plenty of adventures nearby if we didn’t feel like driving the hour or so to other trails.
This was the absolute PERFECT homebase for us on our trip. We planned to go to Zion and Bryce Canyon for my birthday and this place had everything we needed and then some. The location and proximity to the parks and the surrounding area was perfect. The house was super clean, easy to access, and very comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed, the beds were comfy, the showers were clean and well stocked. We especially enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit at night when relaxing and winding down. This was an adults trip, but we could definitely see how accommodating it was for families as well. We will definitely be coming back!
We had a wonderful time in Kanab. This house was beautiful. It was very organized. The beds were comfortable. We loved the hot tub, fire pit, playground- and especially the doors that open up all the way in the family room. While here we visited Zion, Bryce, PeekABoo slot canyon and many trails in the area.
This house was very clean and well appointed. I was able to reach the owner right away when we had an issue. It has a great layout with 3 beds and 3 baths. We enjoyed the hot tub. Kanab is a nice little town and a great location equal distance from several National Parks.
