About this property

You’ve Arrived.

Relax and enjoy this fully renovated 2 bedroom/2 bathroom condo featuring all of the comforts of home. This beautifully appointed home away from home boasts a designer white kitchen with new stainless-steel appliances, a full laundry room, waterproof wood flooring throughout, designer touches in both bathrooms, large walk-in closet in the master, and two patios! And, that is just the beginning…

Centrally located in the lower Catalina foothills, you will find yourself just steps away from all the fun including the pool and Jacuzzi located on property, just a few feet from your front door. The highly desirable surrounding community boasts St. Phillips Plaza which hosts excellent restaurants, boutique shopping, a weekly Artisan market, and nightly live entertainment. You will also be walking distance from Trader Joe’s, The Campbell Avenue retail corridor, and the exciting restaurants of Joesler Village. For the athletically inclined, the property is adjacent to the famous Loop, a circular 120-mile path around the whole city, perfect for a long run, leisurely walk, or a bike ride. La Encantada Shopping Mall, The University of Arizona, and Sabino Canyon trails are all just a short drive away. Tucson International Airport is also close, but you won’t be ready to leave.

Perfect Location - Wonderful Host!

We recently stayed at the Desert Jewel condo and had a fabulous experience! The location is outstanding - close to St. Phillip's Plaza and Joesler Village shops and dining, steps away from the Loop bike path, within walking distance of Trader Joe's and equally accessible from the Catalina Foothills, U of A campus and central and historic/downtown Tucson. We were there for five weeks and really felt like we could "live like a local" from this fantastic location. The condo community has a nice pool and hot tub that is just steps from the front door and we enjoyed using these lovely amenities daily. And being able to walk out the front door and be steps from the Loop was such a bonus! The condo was very clean and tidy. It was also well equipped with bed/bath linens and the kitchen was sufficiently stocked with cookware, gadgets and utensils that we were able to cook many meals instead of going out all the time. Our host, Nardia, was wonderful! We arrived to a beautiful welcome amenity and she was helpful and attentive throughout our stay without being intrusive or overbearing - the perfect host! We hope to stay at Desert Jewel on our return visit to Tucson and would highly recommend it. It really is the best location in Tucson and a perfect home away from home!

Wonderful

We stayed at this property for a small family Thanksgiving. This condo was exactly like the photos. It was clean and comfortable. The property manager was easy to work with and communicative. We would definitely stay here again.

Hiking, biking, and dining !

Fabulous location and a beautiful unit. Only improvement would be for the pool area to have a couple of shade umbrellas and for the pool loungers to have pillow toppers . The chairs look great, but are very uncomfortable. The unit itself was very well stocked with nice amenities.
