We stayed here two nights in mid-March with our dog. The place was clean with very clear check-in instructions from the host. We were able to easily ride our bikes to the Loop trail and visit friends nearby. I really appreciated the secure lot for parking my van. This place perfectly met our needs for a short trip in Tucson and we would stay here again.

Just Perfect

My Husband and I stayed here for parents weekend at University of Arizona. We would absolutely stay here again. We had a few questions before we arrived and they were answered immediately. Communication with the owners was great. We are hoping to come back each parents weekend and stay again.

This was our first experience with VRBO. The property was everything they promised. We felt secure with the gated parking lot and casita. We will use VRBO again.

Delightful Casita Compound

Enter the property through impressive metal gate with keypad and into our numbered parking space. Short walk to our one bedroom casita with an orange tree in the courtyard, all landscaping appropriate for desert conditions. Attractive furnishings.

I teared up a bit when I left the casita at the end of my stay. It could not have been more perfect, a truly lovely property with a view of the Santa Catalina range, within walking distance to a grocery (that has a Starbucks), literally minutes by car from the fun on 4th Street, and easy access to so many incredible hiking opportunities. There's a Whole Foods and a Trader Joe's right around the corner.My entrance area had an orange tree, birdbath, and plants for the birds, it was so wonderful in the evenings to smell the orange blossoms right at the front door.The owners responded instantly to any email that I sent and couldn't have been nicer. I'll book this again the next time I head to Tucson.

Well, my dear Perry, I teared up a bit when reading this nice review. It was such a pleasure to host you, and we truly appreciate you taking time to state your experience at Desert Morada, where the desert botanicals and birds welcome you with open arms! I hope you were able to enjoy the pool near your backyard and the outdoor dining area with grills.

Quick getaway

We went to Tuscan for a quick trip to find warm weather. Well the weather didn’t really cooperate but the stay at our VRBO made up for the chilly weather. The place is so inviting and cozy with a great back patio that gets some nice sun. The entire complex is neat and clean and very quiet. It is very convenient getting around on a bicycle and getting to the bicycle path that loops around town. We will definitely stay here again and looking forward to returning.

Great size for two people

When we arrived late at night the gate wouldn’t open but the manager answered her phone right away and opened it for us. She helped us with any supplies we needed while staying too. The gate wouldn’t let us out the morning we went to leave but we were able to get out a different way and she responded in a few hours saying the gate was broken but she fixed it. The place is very small but it’s perfect for just two people. The location is great and close to many things but the neighborhood made me grateful that it was a gated area. Great price for the 10 days we stayed. The bed and shower curtain could be replaced though.

Post Surgery Comfort

Casita M was very compact and perfect for recovering from knee replacement surgery. Excellent restaurants and grocery stores close by. Very quiet neighborhood and always felt safe. Very nice patio and good place to relax with Tucson's good weather.

Quiet safe getaway!

I stayed here for 6 weeks and the property was always quiet and I felt very safe. Property managers were quick to respond to any questions/concerns I had. Wifi was a little spotty and relatively inconsistent, but other than that had a great experience!

Adorable. Very clean and neat.

Fry’s grocery store a block away, so very convenient. Gated property. Sketchy neighborhood but never felt unsafe. Nicer area just a few blocks away. Quiet. Would definitely rent here again. Central to everything we wanted to do.
