About this property

4th of July!! Views!! Gorgeous 2 bedroom en-suite Casita in Starr Pass

Watch the Fireworks from our patio or from the JW Marriott Resort!!! Casa de Sueños is located in prestigious Starr Pass, a golf community minutes from downtown, but tucked away in the foothills of the Tucson Mountain. It’s located on a private corner lot atop a hill with gorgeous city and mountain views. Exposed beams, turquoise accents, a wood burning fireplace, and artisanal furnishings are reminiscent of the Old Pueblo. Two suites are separated by a large living space. The primary suite has a wrought iron king bed and writing desk. The guest suite has 2 comfortable queen beds. The primary bathroom has a separate soaking tub and walk in shower. The guest bathroom has a shower/tub combination.

Step outside onto the patio and you will see why we fell in love with Casa De Sueños. It is located on a hill where you can enjoy vistas of the mountains and city lights. Glance to your left and you'll see the JW Marriott. The community at Starr Pass is surrounded by a world class, 27 hole Arnold Palmer course. Play amongst the majestic saguaros, enjoy a meal at the Catalina BBQ Grill on the green!

Our Casita is fully furnished with all the amenities of home. Take a 10 minute drive west and you'll lose yourself in the beauty of the Sonoran Desert where the mountains and sunsets are breathtaking. Head East for 10 minutes you're in the center of town, where culinary choices abound and you can find fantastic places for cocktails, live music and culture.

If you're looking for a hiking experience, Casa De Sueños is surrounded by endless trails. My favorite is the Lorraine Lee Trail at the mouth of the JW Marriott just up the hill from us. The views are spectacular! After a 1.8 mile morning hike, head to the JW for breakfast and pop in to the Spa, where you can enjoy the views.

Consider returning in the evening to enjoy a sunset and cocktail from the most fabulous patio in Tucson! There is horseback riding nearby, the Saguaro National Park and The Desert Museum. To escape the heat in the summer, or to play in snow in the winter, head 1 hour northeast and enjoy Mt. Lemmon. 45 minutes south on I-19, you're in the charming town of Tubac. Bring your passport, then head to Nogales, Mexico a short drive away. Pools!Spend time lounging at the JW Marriott’s pool collection has a lazy river, slide and huge hot tub for 45/day per person by reserving directly on the resort’s website. Rates are seasonal. The second pool option is an Olympic lap pool near the casita, with cabanas and towel service for 25/day per person. Casa De Sueños is our home away from home and we welcome you to experience the wonders of the Sonoran Desert and the rich history and culture of the Southwest.

Comfortable Stay

We had a very comfortable weekend at this casita, and it has a great view! It was very nice and clean and it was great having all linens and kithenware provided. The amenities of the condo were also very nice. We enjoyed the pool, especially. Shopping is not too far away and Interstate access makes it pretty easy to get around. We'd stay here again for sure!

Comfortable, cozy and scenic.

Location feels just remote enough, still fairly convenient to downtown. Saw javelinas and roadrunners up close! The house itself is quite cosy and comfortable, with a beautiful view. Communal jacuzzi and heated lap pool were great. Thelma was a wonderful host, very quickly responding to any inquiries. Would love to return!

Starr Tucson

We had wonderful time, nice two bed room, plenty of space to relax, property owner was very responsive to questions, love the view at sunset, enjoyed the patio & BBQ. Having access to JW Marriott a big plus, lazy river and swimming pools at JW are the best. Local golf course was less the 5 minute drive. Thanks for the wonderful location.

Felt like home.

Quiet neighborhood. Great view and pool. Thelma was fast to respond on any issues. A road runner visited us everyday as well as deer and javelinas. We accidentally left a wallet and cell phone behind at check out. Rosa the housekeeper was quick to notify thelma who promptly called us. It was very nice of Rosa to wait for us to return. We book last minute so really appreciate the fast response

We would definitely stay there again if in the area.

Beautiful Casita

We rented this property for my brother and his wife so that they could be near our home while visiting us. They absolutely loved the casita. It was beautifully decorated and more than fully equipped with not just necessities but also special amenities like members' access to the JW Marriot Resort's pool and workout facilities, tennis rackets, a fully equipped kitchen, washer and dryer, etc. The casita was exceptionally clean and wonderfully updated. The owner did a wonderful job of providing information about the casita and the surrounding community. We couldn't be more pleased with our choice. We've already recommended this casita to others and plan to use this casita again for visitors.

Favorite Casita in Starr Pass

My family stays in Starr Pass at least once a year to visit my parents and have rented several casitas in this resort. This one is by far our new favorite. Check-in was easy, the place was clean, and the instructions were easy to follow. Everything inside felt newer and fresher than previous units we have stayed at. New furniture, appliances, floors, and bathrooms made it feel fresh and new. The kitchen had most everything you could need. The washer and dryer was top notch! The owner answered any question I had promptly. The back deck is lovely and has a great view of Tucson and the Sonoran desert. This unit comes with a pool pass (M-Th only) to the JW Marriott which my 5-year old son loved. We will return to this casita again!

About the host

Hosted by Thelma Gutierrez

Host profile image
Welcome to Casa de Sueños which translates into House of Dreams. If you sit on the patio at sunrise or sunset, you'll know why we chose the name. The desert landscape and horizon changes colors before your eyes. It comes alive in shades of green, blue, pink, purple and red. It is a wonderful spot to find inspiration and peace, or to simply relax...
Of all the places I have traveled to, the Sonoran Desert has my heart. I was born in Tucson and raised near Starr Pass. I am a proud Wildcat, a
U of A graduate who now resides in California.
It was always my dream to return to Tucson, but until we do, we wanted to have a small piece of the desert to go home to... a cozy Casita we'd like to share with you.

Why they chose this property

This property is special because it is located in the area where I grew up, most of my family lives with a mile or so of Starr Pass. The area is absolutely the best because it is tucked away in the foot hills of the Tucson Mountains, yet it's a quick 10 minute drive to the center of town. It's also quiet and a perfect place for star gazing because of a low light ordinance. Perhaps one of the main reasons for choosing this location, is because it is near to an incredible desert trail named after my cousin and mentor, Lorraine Lee, a tireless civic leader in the community. If you visit Starr Pass you'll know "why this property."

What makes this property unique

We loved the layout - the fact that it's on the end, high on a hill, has exposed beams, rustic doors and saltillo tile. It reminded me of my travels through Mexico, complete with the two-toned painted stucco on the exterior! Mainly, I love the location. All it took was walking out to the patio and immediately, I fell in love with the views. On top of that, we're close to the pool, restaurant, gym and tennis courts. I couldn't imagine a better pace to be!
