This makes four times we stayed at Casa Bella, and we hope to come back again. Not only is the house itself comfortable, clean and convenient. The owners, Lil and Henry, are great people to deal with -- competent, considerate and caring. We enjoy our time here. It's an attractive house in a quiet and respectable neighborhood, and I would certainly recommend it to my friends.

Our experience at Casa Bella was exceptional. The owners were easy to work with and so accomodating. From the moment we stepped in the house we felt relaxed and at home. The decor is modern and the house is stocked with everything you need. It was very tidy and clean. The house is in a quiet neighborhood and centrally located. We would definitely recommend this home for anyone staying in the Tucson area.

Just spent Homecoming weekend at Casa Bella. We had two couples and a small child and the house was the perfect size. The owners were quick to respond to any inquiries during the rental process. The home was in great shape, we loved the Trader Joe's snacks. We were able to walk to the UA mall, just a nice 10-15 minute stroll down a quite street. We would love to stay here next time we make it to Tucson.

We stayed three weeks in late March 2011. The best recommendation I can give is that we booked four weeks in 2012. Casa Bella is quiet, very clean, and in a great neighborhood. The kitchen is well equipped if you want to cook. The location very central to many restaurants if you don't. We have two children and appreciated being a short block away from a large park and library. Henry and Lil were a pleasure to deal with and very welcoming.

Our son and his family recently relocated to Tucson and we went along to help with the baby. We all stayed at Casa Bella as we waited for the movers who were 2 weeks late! The house was spotless and comfortable and gave us plenty of room to relax. The location is VERY convenient and the owners very helpful. They provided much more amenities than we ever expected and were very helpful in many ways. Our family enjoyed the quiet neighborhood and we would not hesitate to stay at this lovely home again.

We rented for the NCAA tournament at U of A in March and thoroughly enjoyed the accommodations. The home was within walking distance of the campus, was easy to find from the airport, and everything we needed was nearby. The home is very clean and extremely well stocked, and the patios were perfect for relaxing on. The owners were great to work with, and we would recommend the home to anyone.

We stayed here for a week on vacation in March. The house was immaculate, comfortable and tastefully updated. The enclosed yard has two outside patio areas where we could sit outside and enjoy the beautiful weather. The owners were very helpful and made us feel welcome, and even provided some amentities such as soap, paper products and snacks upon our arrival. The house is centrally located in a quiet area, close to a park and within easy walking distance of the Rincon Market, where you can get gourmet coffee, pasteries, and groceries. This is a great house in a great location. We definitely want to come back and stay here again.

We spent Christmas in Tucson visiting family and exploring the area. Casa Bella was the PERFECT home to rent and come home to. The location is great fro exploring the highlights that Tucson offers. It was comfortable, super clean, and even had some basic paper products, etc. We were touched by the arrival snacks and coffee, etc. The house is a really interesting mid-century style, very private and very well designed...contemporary without being cold. Hope to go back sometime.

Aptly named, Casa Bella is a delightful, immaculately clean house in a super neighbourhood. Lil was there to greet me on arrival and showed me around with the minimum of fuss. The house is very pleasantly furnished, none of the usual horrible 'artworks' so many rentals seem to specialise in and the kitchen is lovely and equipped with anything one might need plus a few basic supplies like washing up liquid, roller towel, water etc and some thoughtfully chosen snacks. The back patio is perfect for early morning coffee and evening barbecues and the front verandah is a cool haven later in the day. An added joy was seeing lots of birds, plenty of woodpeckers and hummingbirds plus lots of butterflies. The Sam Hughes area is quiet and peaceful but within easy reach of shops and restaurants. It's close to a lovely green park and within easy walking distance of the Rincon Market which has a grocery store plus excellent coffee and pastries and other food available. Everything went smoothly except for a very minor glitch with the internet which Lil dealt with speedily but other than that it was a perfect home away from home and I would throughly recommend it for long or short stays.
