My husband and I, plus daughter and son-in-law, were in Tucson for a wedding. The hosts were very accommodating and quick to respond when we had a slight plumbing issue. The rental was tastefully furnished and we felt comfortable entertaining friends and family for short periods of time. The neighborhood was quiet, thus we all slept well. We would stay there again,

We stayed at this lovely home while moving our son into U of A. The neighborhood was quiet and felt very safe (and just a 5 minute drive from campus!). The house was very well appointed and had everything well labeled. The house was clean and well maintained, the owners were very communicative, We loved this house and will absolutely try to book it again fo future trips to visit our son!!

Best rental in Tucson

This VRBO was excellent. We stayed here for a month. There was lots of little extras like plastic wrap and spices which we appreciated not having to run out and buy. The first morning we were at Thomas’s place we looked all over for a tea kettle. We contacted Thomas and he bought one along with tea. The backyard was fantastic! We hope to stay here again next year.

Absolute perfection!

My family was in town for a funeral, and I’m so grateful we found this lovely home to stay in. It is beautifully remodeled with very high end finishes and decorating. It is the most organized home we have ever stayed in (and we’ve stayed in countless homes all over the country). Every item is clean, brand new and in perfect working condition. Thomas Nogales is extremely responsive and flexible. The location is very central to all Tucson has to offer. Thank you for making a difficult time for my family so comfortable.

Broadmoor Broadway

We (4adults) stayed for three nights and couldn’t have been happier. We were all blown away by the attention to detail. There was not one thing that the owner hadn’t planned for from baby equipment, clear markings on everything, a well equipped laundry room to a completely stocked kitchen with everything one might need. The home was immaculate, well decorated and comfortable. The outdoor area in the back is awesome too and perfect for a family or to entertain. The neighborhood was very quiet as well and central to many tourist destinations. The home owners were wonderful and got back to me immediately when I had a question. Check in and out were clear and easy to follow. I highly recommend!

This home is a gem and the owners are wonderful

From the moment of check in, we have been impressed and grateful for all the thoughtful touches to this property. You’ll be hard pressed to find any rental as clean and well stocked with everything you need and such a great location. The hosts thought of everything. It really does feel like what vrbo intended- like you’re a guest in someone’s home. It’s a peaceful retreat that is beautifully appointed. The dog run was also an added bonus, as was the great work space in the main room for remote work. I also want to add, that the hosts went above and beyond to accommodate our family from day 1. The amount of amenities for parents of young children, is more than I expected. Just like the rest of the home, the hosts have thought of what you’d need for a toddler/young children. I can’t think of any thing that could have made the trip any better and or feel any more cared for than we do. We can’t wait for our next trip to Tucson! Thank you!! 😊

You will want to stay here!

The owners know how to create a welcoming environment. The location of this house is relatively close to downtown. It was easy to access the main streets. The neighborhood is very quiet. The only sound that affected my sleep was the train whistle. There’s not much that can be done about that and I was the only one bothered by it. Since it was the Christmas season, the neighbors decorated by putting cows on the roof. So creative! The house was very clean and had modern finishes. It had a very comfortable living room and good-sized kitchen. The kitchen was not used much, but had everything needed and well-marked for easy location. The beds were comfortable and the heat pump kept the temperature pleasant. The closets are a little small, but that would only be an issue for a long term rental. The bathrooms had little bottles of shampoo, lotion, etc. like you would find in a hotel. There were towels, washcloths and hand towels for each person in our party. The backyard was nice with well-arranged sitting areas and a privacy fence. Here are some things to be aware of….The entry code is a little funky, make sure to press the numbers slowly and accurately. The water may take a little time to warm up, so run it for a few minutes. On a final note, if this rental could be compared to a college term paper, it would receive an A.

Super Place. One would NOT need ANYTHING but food & drinks. Immaculately clean. All beds have an adjustable base to raise the head up & down. PLUSH bedding, blankets & plenty of towels. The backyard is very inviting. It is lit up on a timer. A small putting area. Seating galore. A swing..and other items one might need. The owner .....was extremely helpful with instructions in unlocking the home. Can't believe it..we happened to have a connections with Thomas the owner. The People he knew WE knew. What a small world. Will definitely return when my sisters & I are in Tucson again.
