Beautiful Home & Location

This house is just lovely. Very clean, comfortable with everything you need. The owner has clearly taken a good deal of time to add so many little details that make you feel at home. Owner is very responsive and the photos really do match the house.The property is seated on an amazing lot where you have spectacular views of both mountains and sunsets. Pool is beautiful. Beautiful desert landscaping. We can't say enough wonderful things about this property. We had a wonderful three weeks here and hated to leave. We hope to rent this property again!

Tucson Girls Trip

What a fabulous home! It was beautifully decorated, lots of space and a gorgeous pool in the back. With five of us on the trip, we had plenty of rooms and beds for everyone. The kitchen was so nice and everything was fully stocked. The sunsets from the front patio were epic! We will stay here again next time we are in Tucson.

Perfect for our family reunion.

Our group was three out-of-town couples gathering in Tucson for a family reunion. The house was perfect for us--great condition, great location, fully equipped and very comfortable. Leticia is a great host, very responsive and helpful. We would choose this house again with no hesitation and with no shopping for alternatives.

Stunning Views

We came here from the Northeast for a quick winter getaway. The property is amazing! You have panoramic views of the Catalina Mountains, and at night you can see all the Tucson city lights. We loved the heated pool. There are great local options for hikes and excellent dining close by. We can't wait to come back.

Perfect place

Home owner was so communicative and helpful. The house ( while big for just 2 people) was comfortable and felt like home by day 2. We were in town visiting sick family and this home was our oasis . We were there during heat wave ( 110 every day) so we used pool early in the morning and then in the house for cool AC. The location was perfect . Will rent again if we need a place in Tucson.

Checked all the boxes and then some

House was gorgeous. Beautifully furnished, thoughtfully decorated, spacious and included every amenity possible. Loved looking at the art and enjoyed the reading material. Especially loved the concrete floors. Daytime mountain view was inspiring, evening city view sparkling. Enjoyed the pool. Saw a tarantula. Quiet and private. A stellar property. Thank you for allowing us to experience a wonderful stay.

Luxurious Foothills paradise

This home is everything it was described to be and more, starting with the spectacular view walking up to the front door. The home has a beautiful flow with lots of inviting common spaces, and the decor was so creative and stylish. The overall impression: luxurious and pristine. I want to especially mention the kitchen, which was without a doubt the best equipped VRBO I’ve ever rented, and the owner has thoughtfully provided spices, oils, vinegar, etc. The pool also was a welcome amenity with its warm water, even in November. (And, yes, we remembered to cover it after our swim -- not a difficult task.) We needed to communicate with the owner on a couple of matters, and she replied promptly and resolved our issues to our complete satisfaction. Highly recommend!

Celebration of Life Together

There are neighbors, yet the setting/design is very private, the views beautiful; we were happy to tour less . . . and just stay 'home', celebrating sixty years of life together. The only 'aging in place' concern for our group, in their mid-70s to early 80s, were single steps at a handful of room entrances . . . that called for our attention as we acclimated to the home. So, we would suggest noting this feature in the vrbo writeup to help people make a wise decision . . . in the name of safety. We would be happy to return to this vrbo.

Wonderful vacation

Beautiful and well stocked home with incredible views! We enjoyed lots of outside pool time and amazing sunsets every evening. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the host was very quick to respond to questions. The neighborhood feels secluded and is very quiet but still close to all the amenities. Would highly recommend this house to anyone looking for a quiet getaway.

Gorgeous home, gracious host, perfect stay.

The pictures do not do justice to the beauty of the location, the views, the incredible art from around the world, or to how well-appointed the home is. The layout and size of the rooms allows everyone to spread out. The outside of the property and the pool were well-maintained and very clean. The hosts communicated check-in notes and property notes clearly and were available to answer questions. If we return to Tucson, this will be our first choice!

Catalina Foothills

Amazing house, property and location! Loved sitting out by pool in the mornings and out front watching the sunset over Tucson in the evening. Beautiful landscaping at the house and throughout the neighborhood. All the amenities you could want or need stocked in the house. Would definitely come back.

About the host

Hosted by Leticia Lopez

Host profile image
Due to a disability I stopped working as a full-time arts administrator/social worker/artist about 11 years ago and through late night surfing I acquired a growing obsession with real estate and the idea of vacation rentals! I purchased this house in Tucson because I spent my lovely early childhood here. Tucson is the ancestral home of my imagination.

Why they chose this property

What's not to love about the Catalina Foothills and the extraordinary views!? I've experienced blood/sweat/tears, spent lots of money, and have had great fun since buying what was a fixer-upper in 2017. I love all aspects of the vacation rental industry, including designing spaces and decor. For this house I determined I needed a theme and latched into Global Adventures. Each room has a different continent's influence: Asia, Europe, Africa and North America bedrooms; a South American Den; Australia and Antarctica are bathrooms and lastly, a bathroom that's the “Center of the Universe": New York City, of course!

What makes this property unique

I'm besotted with this house: the views, and places to sit and enjoy them, the great light, the elegant yet very comfortable rooms, the extra large pool, the huge kitchen with new appliances, multiple dining areas and both places to congregate and also to hide out. LOTS of art, And a global theme which is understated (not kitschy!) yet provides a lot of visual candy (and maps!)
