Top Hotels Near Kitt Peak National Observatory in Sells

"This home is far more beautiful than the pictures can show; it's earthy and artistic, and not in the "cliche" desert way. The color scheme echoes the desert sunsets, and the furnishings and decor are fascinating as well as functional. The hosts were incredibly responsive, with suggestions about places to eat and things to see, while not being at all intrusive. We came to Tucson to experience the wildlife, and it could not have been better situated for visits to Kitt Peak, Mount Lemmon, and Madera Canyon. Best of all, the Saguaro National Park and Ironwood National Monument were both minutes away, and the surrounding area has areas with water and agriculture, which led to a parade of toads following the first rains of the season. On a related note, the AC is an evaporative cooler; it works differently from a freon AC and requires very dry air to work efficiently, so don't expect it to get as cold inside during monsoon season.

"An off grid restful oasis. It was exactly what I needed and the owners were delightful! "
