This Oro Valley gem was a terrific place to spend time in the Catalina Mtns. The home is attractive, clean, comfortable, nicely laid out, and well stocked with everything (kitchen goods, bar ware, linens and sheets, as well as games and books). There is a shaded, spacious patio, which makes a great addition to the living space. We had meals outdoors and enjoyed the many birds, and grapefruit and oranges from the trees.
The neighborhood is friendly and good for walking. The southern Oro Valley location is ideal. El Conquistador is close to shopping (Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, Safeway) and many restaurants. There's also easy access to the bike path and numerous hiking trails. A great plus is the Oro Valley Community Center, which makes its facilities available to all -- so if golf, swimming and tennis interest you, it's close by and the rates are very reasonable. We also took advantage of the Oro Valley Library.
The hosts, Karen and Cherif, were a pleasure to work with and extremely helpful and thoughtful. We will be back!
