This was a very cute little place to stay and great value. It was close to downtown Tucson and amenities but still very quiet at night and with off street parking. The backyard was great for eating our breakfast in the morning sun, and the kitchen was very well equipped. That is important to us as we generally buy groceries and eat in most nights. There were enough plates etc for us to host our daughter and boyfriend who are post grad students at U of A. We also appreciated the washer/dryer as we had been on the road for 10 days on arrival. Communication was great between Stephen and ourselves for checking in and on departure. Also loved we didnt need to strip beds, start laundry, empty trash etc so it felt like a proper vacation!!

I was in town for a surgery at Banner and this location was perfect for us. The house is so cute and cozy. Plenty of fenced in space for our dogs. There’s even a Dutch Bros right across the street and a Whole Foods right around the corner. If you like Mediterranean food, you can’t beat Zayna which is about a mile from the house, highly recommend.The hosts were responsive and wanting to help make our stay there the best it could be. We will definitely be back in the future.

Comfortable, well equipped bungalow

The property was clean, comfortable and well equipped with a spacious backyard. We enjoyed staying here while visiting Saguaro National Park. We cooked all our meals in the well equipped kitchen. Plenty of parking space. A nice place to stay.

Adorable weekend getaway property

We had the best time at this location. The hosts have thought of everything and made it comfortable for our stay with all the essentials. Our dogs loved the fully fenced in yard and we loved having a sitting area to hang out in when they explored the outdoors. We would definitely go back on our next Tucson adventure!

A perfect stay!

Loved this sweet place. Well outfitted with essentials for the kitchen. Large backyard where our dogs were happy to lay in the shade. Walkable to coffee, a Whole Foods, and accessible to most places by driving as it’s centrally located and right off a Main Street. Loved it. It was very clean and we had zero issues during our stay.

Charming Gem for a Winter Stay

We spent 2 weeks in February with our aging dog for a warm weather escape in this very comfortable house. It is in a central older neighborhood very convenient to Whole Foods and walkable to several good restaurants. The place is pleasantly bright and the beds and pillows were terrific. Fenced back yard with several nice sitting areas. Well stocked and thoughtfully done place, with responsive hosts. Would stay here again without hesitation as a place to explore Tucson and all that it has to offer.

Casa Carino---a great place to stay

We stayed at Casa Carino for a month and enjoyed every minute of it. The house size was more than adequate, the kitchen and laundry facilitates were first rate. The beds are very comfortable and we are still trying to figure out how they got the sheets so very soft. The back yard is totally fenced so we could let Fido run and not worry about her getting lost, and it is void of any type of prickly vegetation that might get in your dogs paws. With the gazebo, a dining area and an area with Adirondack chairs and a chiminea we found the back yard very pleasant for lounging, reading, eating---At first site some of the nearby neighbors (rental properties) looked a bit shaky, but we found everyone around to be quite friendly, and enjoyed walking through Miramonte neighborhood daily and every evening---The property is close to Speedway which is a busy street but we found there to be little if any road noise inside -no doubt due to the thick stucco walls)-so we slept very well. On one instance we needed to contact the owner and am happy to say that Steve returned our request in about 3 minutes---We have already recommended this place to some friends and will no doubt be using it again in the future. Oh one other thing --the Bashful Bandit BBQ is about 100yds away and is not only full of really great bbq, but also a very very friendly staff who all reside in the Miramonte neighborhood-also, we had to see a vet for our dog and would recommend the Pima Pet clinic on speedway!!!

Better Than Expected

Extremely well stocked and appointed. This updated mid-town bungalow was a pleasant surprise and just what we needed for some chill time and regroup after two long days of car travel. Two relatively minor gripes are: the tub/shower has no grippers making it slippery and dangerous, and the bath sink faucet hot/cold is backwards. They went above and beyond with the little details and extras. We’ll done!
