Beautiful Mountain Views

Our stay at Hilltop Casa was very enjoyable! The beds are comfortable and the townhome was well appointed. We enjoyed sitting on the covered patio looking towards the mountains. The shops and restaurants are a short walk away.

The best place to stay in Tucson!

We absolutely loved everything about the hilltop casa- a beautiful & well appointed property, great decor, awesome views and convenient location. Close to hiking, restaurants, and top attractions, yet very private. Jacqueline, the owner, was attentive and had wonderful suggestions for hiking and eating. Our new favorite spot to stay in Tucson!

Bliss in the desert

The condo in the Catalina foothills is perfect in every way. Stunning views, comfy beds/furnishing and thoughtful extras (emergency toothbrush, extra towels, spa robes, pool supplies). The location is very handy to many hike trails, UofA, and shops/restaurants. I’ve already booked another stay!

Wonderful views

Property was perfect- very clean and well decorated, sweeping mountain views from the patio, little touches like bathrobes and silk eye masks made us feel very special. Congenial hosts were wonderful before and during our stay. They even bought yoga mats for us!! We would return for another stay in a heartbeat! ❤️

Oh, Those Views!

A wonderful place! The patio is perfectly situated to take in unobstructed, stunning views of the beautiful Catalina Mountains - just incredible. Equally lovely inside - completely updated, stocked and spotless. For someone who cooked every night, couldn’t be happier with the kitchen. Proximately to restaurants, hiking trails, outstanding grocery stores, art galleries and other shopping a real bonus. Superb hosts, seamless check-in/check-out. An excellent VRBO option in Tucson!

Nice condo

Overall great place, great location. Nicely furnished and appointed and the Art TV was super cool...need one of those in my house. It has a nice covered patio, where you can hear the street noise but it is not obnoxious. A great place to drink coffee in the cooler mornings. We traveled back and forth from U of A and it was about 20 minutes or so. Great to be by a nice outdoor mall with lots of food options, including a local grocery store.

Love at First Sight

The location of this property is amazing. It sits high on hill which allows for unobstructed views of the Catalina Mountains. The southwest decor is very tasteful with wonderful little touches throughout the home. Our favorite spot was the porch for afternoon sun and, for me, the window seat was perfect for the rainy or chilly days. Owners were very responsive and friendly! We definitely will return!

A gem against the foothills

Beautifully sited, near restaurants and a great market. Carefully designed and appointed 2BR. Unlike many of the dreary and dark rentals in AZ, this home is bright, clean, and contemporary. The appliances are top notch and the kitchen well set up with sharp knives -- a rarity in rentals. Supplies are "endless" in that there are soaps, shampoos, cleaning supplies, and more for your stay. Again, a lovely rare benefit in a rental.

This is the one for your two song visit!

Gorgeous panoramic views of the Tucson skyline from a top hilltop number 24! This condo is immaculately clean and meticulously appointed. Every accommodation and high-end appliance you could wish for is here. ( Bring your own plastic pitcher and K-Cup machine). Host Jacqueline is responsive and quick! Comfortable beds, darling patio with great views, and easy parking. This is the one. Stop looking now.

Graduation Stay

We stayed at this property when we were in Tucson for graduation ceremonies ot U of A. It is a beautiful spot. The view is great. The unit is the best of the group. Inside is great. We enjoyed our time and would stay again. (minor detail: I could not figure out how to tune in ABC/NBC live on the TV but we were not there to watch TV and did not bother to contact the host.)
