Renovated Casita with Private Courtyard

Escape to your private, sparkling clean casita in the heart of Tucson! This stylish, fully renovated retreat for two features a full kitchen, a cozy queen bed, and a private courtyard with a grill and string lights. Perfectly located just 1.3 miles from the University of Arizona and a 5-minute drive to downtown, it's an ideal base for exploring the city. Enjoy the peace of a quiet neighborhood with easy access to everything.

Welcome to your private, fully renovated casita, a stylish and sparkling clean retreat designed for comfort and convenience. This charming space offers a peaceful escape with its own private courtyard, perfect for enjoying the Arizona sunshine.

Inside, you'll find a cozy bedroom with a comfortable queen-size bed and a modern, full kitchen ready for your culinary adventures. The bathroom has been beautifully updated with a luxurious rainfall shower head to help you unwind after a day of exploring.

Your private space includes:
* A fully equipped kitchen
* High-speed Wi-Fi
* A Smart TV (log into your own Netflix, Hulu, etc.)
* A luxurious rainfall shower
* A gas grill in your private courtyard

Step outside into your personal courtyard, with outdoor dining space. In the evening, the space transforms into a warm and inviting oasis under the glow of string lights.

Guests will have exclusive access to the entire private casita and its attached private courtyard. Self-check-in is available via a secure keypad on the door; you will receive a unique code that is active only for the duration of your stay. For added peace of mind, an interior deadbolt is also provided.

To access the casita, follow the path to the east of the main house, behind the driveway, all the way to the lighted tree. Enter the gate to find your private courtyard and the entrance to your home away from home.

We respect our guests' privacy and offer a seamless self-check-in process. The casita is completely separate from the main house and has a private entrance and courtyard. We are available via the app or phone if you need anything at all during your stay, from local recommendations to assistance with the space. Otherwise, we'll leave you to enjoy your peaceful retreat.

* The Smart TV is available for you to log into your personal streaming accounts (Netflix, Hulu, etc.).
* You'll know you're in the right place when you spot the harmless T-Rex guarding the front yard. Please don't feed the dinosaur!
* The casita is located behind the main house on the property.

Fit our needs

We were in Tucson to attend our daughter's medical school graduation. The casita was a perfect distance to our daughters' home and graduation functions. Great little outside area.

Casita Perfecta

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Tucson has so much to offer and the Casita is conveniently located to everything. Nice walks in the neighborhood, to the university and restaurants. No doubt about it the place is small but has everything we needed. Bed is also comfy. A perk is the sweet yard just perfect for our pet to be outdoors too.

Lovely casita

Husband and I stayed here two nights while visiting Tucson. Nice, quiet neighborhood. Cool local restaurants. Only downside was operation of the TV, but we rarely used it. Highly recommend for 1-2 people!

Small casita in nice neighborhood

Although small, the space was used very efficiently. Enjoyed the view out the bedroom window to see green space with family activities and even some chickens. Host is very helpful and the neighborhood was good to walk our dog, too.

Nice private little place

We stayed six nights and enjoyed the place. Quiet neighborhood. The bed was comfy and everything was as listed. Good towels and plenty of shampoo, etc. The couch is not very comfortable, but I can see that it could be difficult to find a good couch for the small place it needs to fit in. We liked the private outdoor area and used it quite a bit. Just a heads up to anybody staying in the Tucson neighborhoods, the neighborhoods are dark. Very few street lights and nobody turns on exterior lights. We drove all over while there and noticed it everywhere. Be prepared to use the flashlight on your phone when walking around.

Couldnt have been more purrfect!

Candace is a supah dupah host!! The space is GREAT! Comfy bed, awesome shower head and water pressure, as well as a walk in closet that was a nice addition I hadnt really expected. The kitchen space and supplies available for cooking went above and beyond...cuz when I needed an ice cream scooper..I found one!! The Casita courtyard is private and spacious, but also felt "cozy" and I def took advantage of the propane grill!! This location couldnt be any better and I almost regret giving it such a great review...cuz "Candy's Casita" is the ONLY place I will want to stay when I come visit my friends and family! The BONUS is that "pet friendly" is what actually allowed me to come celebrate my birthday with my peeps...because I dont go anywhere without my Adventure Cats...and responsible travelers with cats (2 max as described) can call Candy's Casita their meowsome home away from home!

Cute Casita

We had a wonderful time. Place was clean and comfortable. Bed was extremely comfortable with soft sheets. My wife loves chickens and really enjoyed seeing them. Thank you for everything. This will be our first choice when staying in Tucson.

Cutest Little Place

This was by far the best equipped VRBO we have ever stayed in! It was cute and clean and literally had everything we needed. We have started carrying a “VRBO box” with us with several things that we have needed staying at other places over the years (salt and pepper, cooking spray, wine glasses, corkscrew, etc). Candice has made sure to think of everything and we didn’t need our box at all! The neighborhood is quiet, the. casita is well maintained and easily accessible.
