Plan to have a couple of friends for family members over please just let us know. They will need to park on the street and you will need to escort them in. The site is an acre in size, there are 8 cameras that record 24/7 on the property. The cameras are located on the exterior of the buildings and allow the Owners to view the parking lot, property entrances, pool area and rear portion of the site. No cameras view or record inside the building or in the private rear yards of each unit.

Additional charges-

Rental rate is based upon double occupancy (meaning up to 2 people in a unit) We charge for additional guests above 2-this includes kids. Additional guest fee is $30 per person per night. Have someone stay just one night-you need to pay for that guest for that one night ahead of time. You must notify us ahead of time if you do have additional guests stay the night so we can collect the additional fees.

What a gem

What a lovely, quiet, comfortable place. Everything I needed and easy access to the locations I was in town to visit. The neighborhood isn't the most swanky, but once inside the gate, you'll enjoy quintessential desert southwest accommodations.

Outstanding - should be in a magazine

As a travel nurse I've been all over the country, stayed in expensive hotels and cheap dives. This place surpassed all of these. The unit I stayed in could have been a runner-up in Architectural Digest. The particular street was pretty run down, but then you enter a gated entrance into a real paradise. Every detail was considered, the tile, furniture, textiles and art on the wall. A tremendously beautiful place.

Great location in Tucson

This was a highly functional property to engage in our hiking hobby. Lots of great trails in Tucson area...all are spread out (as the whole city seems to be) so the location worked for us. Everything was functional (beds, kitchen, pool, bbq, tv) as expected. Management was responsive and caring. The washing machine went awry but things happen you know? A great 13 nights for my wife and I

Great place for extended stay.

We did a 16 night stay in casita K and were very pleased with the property. Quiet, comfortable and convenient, would not hesitate to book again. We expected basic accommodations and were pleasantly surprised at how nice things were. Would definitely recommend.

A nice, not great place to stay

Casita K was a nice place to stay, overall. The soundproofing between our duplex units was sufficient. There was no noise from outside the compound of these units. This unit faces the walkway from the center of the complex to the nice, gated parking area: this means that people are walking by just a few feet away from the dining area window: it was a bit disconcerting to have several groups of chatting (subdued) people walk by so closely. There certainly wasn't much of a sense of privacy. The two bedrooms were spacious and comfortable with plenty of closet space and drawer storage space. The bathroom is also spacious and well-appointed and had nice towels. We had problems with the dishwasher and garbage disposal. We fixed the dishwasher. When alerted, the managers wrote back and offered us a bottle of wine for our trouble. While we did not take them up it, it was nice of them to make the offer. The garbage disposal had a small, steady leak and a gusher leak when the disposal was used. We simply unplugged it and put a catch basin under the sink drain. We alerted the managers who later told us the connection was tricky and they would fix it after we left. The only other annoyance was that there was no laundry soap for the very modern stacked washer/drier combo. While this soap was not promised in the listing, supplying detergent would be a very minimal expense with great customer appreciation reward. Short term renters are expected to buy way more detergent than they could possibly use during their stay. I was advised that I could leave the remainder for the following guests. I could see asking long-term renters to buy their own as they are asked to pay for electricity use. Upon leaving, I wrote the managers with some suggestions for what I thought might make the unit more appealing from a renter's point of view (I own and operate my own rental property) but I never heard back from them. Though the listings for this group claim to respond to inquiries and questions 'within a few hours,' in reality on several occasions they did not nearly meet that level of service. They have a lot of rental properties but this area of service could stand improvement. All told, I would consider renting at this collection of casitas again for my and my extended family's future yearly trips to Tucson. We enjoyed our stay overall but we were not over the moon with it. It would not take much to make this an A+ rental unit.
