Historic 3 BR 2 BA home, with cozy Casita. Walk to the U of AZ campus.

Bruce and Ann were great hosts! We made a trip to Tucson for a swim meet at the University of Arizona. The property was so close, it made it really convenient for our swimmer and the spectators. The house is darling, fully stocked and very comfortable beds. We appreciated the homemade cookies they left us too. we will absolutely be back and look to stay at this location.

As with any property, you hope the listing matches the online description/photos. This was our experience with Casa Reina. Given that the property is 'hidden' by a tall privacy wall, it wasn't possible to see it from the street, but it was a great reveal once we opened the gate. This home had the adobe vibe, starting w the turquoise front door. A cluster of cacti occupied one corner of the front yard, which was shaded by a big tree. Once inside, the home's 1930s character was on display w a combo of hardwood and Saltilo tile flooring, plus area rugs. Tho the temps were in the mid 80s/low 90s and a few days in the low 100s, the inside temp stayed cool, likely to the old school construction (i.e. thick walls) and of course the A/C. We really enjoyed the back patio where we spent most of our outdoor time. It had both covered and open areas, plus high privacy walls. We were familiar w Tucson having visited 7 times, so we were a bit concerned that the location close to Broadway (one of the main roadways) would be noisy. But it was quiet, both when sitting on the back patio in the evening and sleeping. The place was clean, beds were comfy, the bedding and linens top shelf, the kitchen well-appointed and the hosts welcoming, even stocking the fridge w water, providing chips n salsa and baked cookies. Ann's love of art is evident in the LR. Make sure to bring a windshield shade; if you plan to turn E on Broadway, drive N to 8th or 7th to turn right on Campbell or it's a LONG wait!

The house was clean and well stocked for our visit.We really enjoyed the cookies and cold water after a full day of travel.

This was a perfect spot for our trip! The property was safe and clean and absolutely beautiful. Plenty of space! My husband and I traveled with his parents and we didn't feel cramped. It was a perfect blend of privacy and communal spaces. Close to everything (well, speaking as a Tucson-native, it's as close as anything is in Tucson lol) and in a safe neighborhood.The hosts were incredibly kind and communicative! We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again or to recommend it to friends! It was absolutely perfect. Thanks, Ann and Bruce, for a marvelous stay!!

Just had a lovely two week stay, my 4th year in a row. Layout is perfect for two couples and the backyard patio is fabulous. Thank you Ann & Bruce!

The hosts were wonderful. Left cookies and other snacks on our arrival..as well as bottles of water…and were extremely responsive. The house is charming and has everything you could want for a totally comfortable stay. The back area is lovely for morning coffee or an afternoon cocktail.

Ann and Bruce are great hosts. They keep the house sparkling clean and welcome guests with homemade cookies and more. Casa Reina is our home away from home on our annual trip to Tucson. Ann is an artist and has carefully curated an inviting Southwest treasure. We enjoy our time there and hope you will too.

Everything was just wonderful.

The house was scrupulously clean, generously stocked (we really didn't need those three rolls of toilet paper we brought just in case and we really appreciated the water and sodas in the refrigerator), and so comfortable we felt at home the moment we walked in the door (and we loved the patio and the delightful decor in the living room). The kitchen had every amenity necessary. The neighborhood was convenient to everywhere we wanted to go and at the same time amazingly quiet. Ann and Bruce were quick to respond to any query. We're already talking about returning to Tucson to see the places we missed and we wouldn't dream of staying anywhere else. Thank you!

The location was great! Our house made us cookies which was nice. We choose to stay at a VRBO so have the option of cooking. There were very little staples like seasonings, tin foil etc. There isn’t much storage in one of the bedrooms. We had to put our clothes in the drawer in the hallway. The smaller bathroom had no counter space to put any toiletries. These are all personal preferences. The backyard is beautiful and a nice space!

We were welcomed with home made cookies and a warm and comfortable home. From a fully equipped kitchen, to beautiful towels and comfortable beds, everything was great.

This felt like a home away from home. Bruce and Anne were so welcoming

Great home - so comfortable, clean and spacious (more space than anticipated). We could walk to campus, food and drink. Thank you for sharing your home!

I would like to give this 20 stars. Everything about the home was just so perfect and comfortable. The beds were extremely nice and all of the linens were high-end. Our hosts were so accommodating and left us snacks and the best cookies ever. The landscaping around the house is such a joy to walk through. It amazed us that even though we were in the heart of things, the house was so quiet. The kitchen is well equipped and the bathrooms are beautiful!. The artwork in the home was so interesting. Given I am an artist, I enjoyed everything so much. I just felt like we were visiting family. The floor plan is perfect for two couples traveling together. The bedrooms are separated and feel very private. The living room furniture was very comfortable. I think I could go on and on, but hopefully you won't hesitate to book this place. The Casita in the garden is another gem.

Wonderful and welcoming hosts. The house is nicely and artfully decorated. It felt like a home, not a sterile rental.

House was clean and as advertised. Easy to and from walk to the UA campus. Hosts were accommodating and responsive. Would definitely rent again.

Stayed here while visiting our daughter at the University of Arizona. The house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. We look forward to visiting again.

Absolutely stay here! We had the best time. Bruce and Ann left personalized notes and even snacks for us. The house is so cute and well-appointed. We lacked for nothing. It's walkable to campus. Bruce and Ann were great hosts and we didn't have any problems with anything. I would definitely come back.

Very well-appointed and quaint property. The hosts went out of their way to be hospitable. Darling home with plenty of space--lots of areas inside and out to find a quiet moment. We can't wait to come back to Casa Reina! Thank you, Bruce and Ann.

A cool oasis in the middle of hectic heat. A beautiful historic home that is quiet and secure yet close to everything, especially the university. The home is beautifully decorated and appointed with everything you need. The owners were friendly and responsive. We felt pampered the whole time

It was perfect. Close to the university, clean home, felt very safe. Ann and Bruce had some extras that we appreciated after travel, ie cold water in the fridge, homeade cookies, a bag of chips and jar of salsa. Our daughter graduated so we aren’t likely to go back, but I would highly recommend it.

We all found that the beds were a little hard and the pebbled flooring in one of the bathrooms was uncomfortable for showering. Apart from that, and missing a dishwasher, it was a very nice property and very conveniently located in Tucson.

A few of us came to visit a friend that lives in the area. We did a few searches and found Casa Reina, the pictures looked amazing but it’s even better in person. Such beautiful touches inside and out. Bruce and Ann had fresh baked cookies and plenty of snack and drinks upon arrival. The beds were comfortable, we all slept like babies. You are walking distance to the UA stadium and a little hike to some shopping but wasn’t bad in the beautiful weather we had. We have told our friends and family about your little gem. Thanks again! Kim and friends

We had a great time. My daughter attends University of Arizona, and we could walk to the University. VRBO ticked all of our boxes. Easy communication with host.We hope to use location again in the future.

Well-appointed house where it's obvious the hosts care! Clean. Right number of amenities. Great back porch to unwind after great hiking and culinary opportunities! Super location and house felt safe and secure. Great job Ann and Bruce!

My wife and I and our dogs spent five night visiting Tucson (we lived there for years back in the 90s). The house and grounds were even cuter in person and made an excellent central base for our trip. Pups appreciated the dog treats!

This was my third time staying and it is such a lovely home. Furnished and decorated as a home, not just a rental. I hope to be back every year!

This property was clean and comfortable and in a great location. We were in close proximity to downtown Tucson and the University of Arizona. The home was so relaxing and peaceful. Our hosts were helpful and accommodating. We had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend this location..

My dad and I enjoyed our stay. Ann and Bruce were excellent hosts. They had a snack waiting for us upon our arrival along with a sweet welcome note. They were very quick to respond to communications. The house was very comfortable and well stocked. We would stay again if ever back in the area.

Ann and Bruce have curated a beautiful home. We can’t wait till visit again!

House was perfect for our needs. Very comfortable charming space that is walking distance to U of A. Short drive to all the great spots in Tucson.

House very welcoming with many special touches. The Christmas tree, snacks, souvenir postcard, homemade cookies all added to our Christmas experience. Beautiful artisan pieces through out the house were perfect. Patio was very comfortable and quiet. The convenience of downtown only a mile away. Easy access to many restaurant choices and shopping. We would choose to stay again when we are in Tucson.

We had a great stay at this wonderful home. Perfect for our family of 4, and our dog. Walked to campus many times. Would love to stay here again.

Loved this house and the attention to detail by the owners. It’s walking distance to the U of A campus and was perfect for our family trip to Tucson. The backyard is fantastic! The owners were very responsive and great to work with. FYI- the home does not have a dishwasher, but that wasn’t an issue during our stay. We will definitely plan to visit again!

We had a wonderful stay. The house is decorated throughout with wonderful art work and crafts.The beds and furniture are very comfortable. Our contacts with the hosts were very enjoyable and helpful. The homemade chocolate cookies were delicious and indicative of the hospitality we enjoyed during our stay.

This is the second time we have stayed here and it was even better the second time around. Five star experience in every way (both times). All the extra touches really go a long way. Thank you Ann and Bruce!
