Modern luxury meets timeless Spanish Colonial at your dream Catalina Foothills escape. Step inside to hand-carved furnishings, soothing fountains, and breathtaking mountain views. Lounge by the waterfall pool, unwind in the spa, or dine under the desert sky in a backyard built for entertaining.

Thoughtfully designed with hand-carved Mexican wood furniture, custom copper accents, and natural Saltillo tilework, this home offers a one-of-a-kind stay in one of Tucson’s most exclusive neighborhoods.
Wake up with coffee beside the tranquil fountain on the master patio. Spend your day in the sparkling pool under the view of the Catalina Mountains, unwind in the soothing spillover spa, or sip cocktails on the back patio as the botanical step fountain provides a peaceful soundtrack to your evening. At night, dine under the stars and take in the beauty of the desert sky.

Bringing the kids? We’ve got you covered! Upon request, we’re happy to set out toys, games, a highchair, toddler mattress, and a pack-n-play to make your stay more comfortable. We can also connect you with trusted, private nannying and babysitting services, and share our favorite kid-friendly restaurants and family activities.
Traveling with pets? We’d love to host them! Most pets are welcome with prior approval and a $100 pet fee per pet. To make things easier, we provide one XL wire crate, plus food and water bowls for their stay.
