About this property

Cozy Casita with Private Courtyard - 5 Mins to UofA

Private, clean & comfortable casita in the heart of central Tucson! This cozy fully renovated casita is perfect for solo travelers or couples. The property features a full kitchen, a queen bed, and private courtyard with dining table, gas grill & bistro lights. Perfect central location is just 1.3 miles from the University of Arizona and a 5-minute drive to downtown Tucson. It's an ideal central base for exploring the city!
Enjoy the peace of a quiet neighborhood with easy access to everything!

Our fully renovated casita is designed for comfort and convenience. We are located in central Tucson along the Campbell Ave corridor where you will find dozens of restaurants, many coffee shops, stores, parks, and grocery stores. The University of Arizona, downtown Tucson and University Medical Center are all located within a few miles. The central location makes it easy to get to hiking trails, golf courses, I10, the Davis Monthan Air Force Base and Tucson International Airport.

Inside, you'll find a cozy living room with smart TV, a bedroom with a comfortable queen-size bed, a modern kitchen, and an updated bathroom 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 fenced courtyard
* Private Washer and Dryer

The outdoor space has a private courtyard, with outdoor dining space and gas BBQ grill. In the evening, the space transforms into a warm and inviting oasis under the glow of bistro lights.

The neighborhood is quiet, but close to everything! You'll see neighbors out walking dogs throughout the day, a "free table" where neighbors share goods, and a small free library where you can take a book or leave a book. Over on Cooper St there are public bike rentals on both ends of the street. You'll also occasionally find electric scooters for rent scattered around the streets.

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 gate marked Candy's Casita. Enter the gate to find your private courtyard and the entrance to your home away from home. (You'll know you're in the right place when you spot the harmless T-Rex in the front yard)

The casita is completely separate from the main house, has a private entrance and fenced off courtyard.

We respect our guests privacy and offer a seamless self-check-in process. 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.

Great place! Nice bed, lovely kitchen. Enjoyed sitting outdoors when the temperature was high enough. Good location - one can walk to U of A then take free tram to various places. I'd certainly stay there again.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.
