If you are looking for a place that feels like Shangri-La yet is only a few minutes drive from all the pleasures Tucson offers, look no further than Casa Feliz.
David and I enjoyed the off-street parking and access to the suite via a path that led through a private garden. Our own chairs right outside our room were a great place to have an afternoon drink, especially after a dip in the pool. By the way, this is one of the few Home Away refrigerators that provided a freezer with ice cube trays--a really nice touch in the desert!
The room itself is spacious with a huge closet, a four-drawer dresser, and two spots to store luggage so it was out of the way. There was a small desk that suited my blogging/laptop needs perfectly. The bathroom, while compact, had everything we needed including a much appreciated walk-in shower.
The host, an expert on the area, welcomed us warmly and gave us lots of suggestions about things to see and do.
All in all, we felt this garden paradise offered the right mix of comfort, privacy, and convenience. We know you'll be thrilled to call it your temporary home while you explore the wonderful city of Tucson.
