Ideal Private Oasis In The Sonoran Desert - Perfect Homebase To Travel Or Relax.

We enjoyed our stay. Rhonda was a great host.

Clean rooms,host was very nice and made sure we had all the info we need.

The owner, Rhonda was great! She responded quickly to questions and check in was a breeze! The backyard was so lovely! The pool area was fun, clean and good floating rafts. The other side of the yard was large and tranquil with a comfy outdoor couch to sit on. Great space for early morning coffee. Our family really enjoyed our stay. The kitchen is a nice size & well equipped. Thank you Rhonda!

Great older property. This property has everything you need and then some. The pool was amazing and clean. The beds were just okay and the property could use some minor updating but all in all it was excellent for the price . The backyard was an amazing oasis! We spent hours outside by the pool and in the backyard. It was close to whatever you need and in a fairly quiet neighborhood.

This property is absolutely beautiful! It is spacious and so welcoming. The host was amazing and thoughtful, from pre-arrival to post-check-out. The heat wave allowed for multiple days in the pristine pool, with a well-thought-out layout of outdoor seating and lounging. The house was immaculately clean and roomy, while being well-stocked with extra essentials. My family of five had such a wonderful time here. Recommend 10/10!

This really was a private oasis! We spent many hours simply relaxing in both the spacious, well-appointed house and the beautiful back yard. Rita Ranch seems a world apart from Tucson proper, but we quickly learned our way around and managed to take in the bigger part of the cit y as well. Rhonda is a friendly, welcoming hostess who checked in with us several times to see everything was going well or if we needed anything. We would highly recommend this family and dog-friendly home. It’s both spacious and very comfortable. A real home away from home.

Very welcoming. Everything as advertised and everything we needed for cooking and enjoying our stay!!

Rhonda the host was so nice and made sure everything was perfect. The yard is beautiful and so relaxing with the well maintained pool. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook. If we are in Tuscon again we will definitely try to stay here again. The house has lots of art and books that represent the south west.

This property is wonderful. It was perfect for our family and two fur babies. It has EVERYTHING you could possibly need. The property manager Rhonda is amazing. Also, the floorplan is handicap assessable. We enjoyed everything about this property.

Everything was great. The back yard is incredible. The kitchen is large and well stocked. Very comfortable living room and extra sitting area. It also has a large dining table. Owner is very accommodating, and even reached out to us before the trip.

Beautiful property, had everything you needed. Loved the pool and outdoor areas. Will definitely plan another stay.

You guys. Book this house. Like , now. There is a grocery store, gas station , park, and THE BEST TACOS within a half mile, and the neighborhood is quiet and clean. The house is a literal home away from home and so comfortable. There were extra sets of bedding in every closet , and lots of seating in the gathering areas. The pool was my kids favorite part, snd they were often just begging to stay in rather than go explore Tucson. Fully stocked kitchen made it easy to shop and cook rather than go out for every meal, but the proximity to town was a breeze too. You’ll need a car. Uber would have been soo expensive and I didn’t look into public transit enough to see if would even be an option. The host was so kind and caring, and I’m definitely looking for reasons to come back !

Amazing experience. Exceptional hosts - The kind of place you walk into and you feel like you’re at home literally. Comfortable, open , well-maintained. Everything you need is accessible. Great overall value with having the option of using the pool as well as being surrounded by mature landscape, birds, butterflies in this desert oasis. It was tranquil, relaxing, refreshing, and exactly what my family needed. Highly recommend the host as well as this hidden gem.

This was our first time visiting Tucson and the property was ideal for our stay. The pool was amazing since it was so hot and was nice to enjoy after touring Tucson everyday while we were there. The owner communicated very well throughout our stay and even called before we came to see if we needed anything in particular which was very nice! We loved staying here and would love to come back to stay again. The house was very beautiful and had everything plus some that we needed.

Had a pleasant quick stay in August 2025. I won't repeat the facts of the profile... which were all true. Just a few extra things that are worth noting!- The garage is available for your use! It's completely empty so as long as car fits between the back wall and the door, you're golden. Owners provide a garage door opener you can keep in the car while you're there. - Entry is via a simple lockbox with a 4 digit code. Owners don't need to be there when you arrive at all, so our arrival at around midnight didn't inconvenience anyone. - I was a little surprised that the deep end of the pool is pretty deep. Bonus for big kids and adults who like jumping, but something to keep in mind if you have little ones. - A nice big basket of rolled up pool towels outside under the porch cover was beautifully convenient.

This was the first time we have rented a property. It was wonderful. Home was beautiful. Rhonda is an amazing owner! Everything was perfect and she reached out to make sure we didn't need anything. We couldn't have been happier.

We loved staying in this beautiful home. We enjoyed the pool, the weather was perfect. The host was very friendly n welcoming to us. We would love rent this home again..

Wonderful stay for a quick weekend getaway.

Everything about the host and the property was perfect. Personal touches, quick responses, awesome pool/outdoor area, super comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen, I could go on and on. Just book this place and you won’t be disappointed. We will be coming back!

Overall our stay was a very good experience. The positives outweigh the negatives. POSITIVES: 1. The beautiful and private backyard was the main reason we chose this rental and it did not disappoint! A haven for birds w/trees, plants and flowers. The pool is lovely, tho not heated so we weren't able to swim for our Feb/March stay - except to soak our feet after hiking which was great! Yard includes multiple seating areas providing both sun and shade PLUS a gas fire table for relaxing with a drink after dark. 2. A very spacious home, nicely decorated- not sterile like many rentals. Plenty of room when our daughter & friends spent a week to do rock climbing in the mountains. Well supplied w/ towels, sheets, blankets, supplies. 3. Safe, mostly quiet, family community w/2 parks near the house. Walk to grocery store & bagel shop.4. Super friendly, VERY responsive owners were nearby and available to help with ANY needs or concerns. If you ask for something, they will probably get it for you! NEGATIVES:1. Like most rentals, some functional aspects are pretty old/ tired (appliances, plumbing, TV's, etc) Some seating is worn flat. Quality mattresses, but metal frames w/ board platforms are noisy/hard. 2. Rita Ranch is next to a busy RR line, w/ trains running all night which sometimes disturbs sleep. It is a bit isolated from the city proper, so takes a long time to get anywhere (true no matter where you stay in Tucson!) Proximity to Interstate 10 helps.

Beautiful house and property. What you see in the pictures is what you see when you open the front door. Very welcoming and clean. Did not get to use the pool as it was too cold, if there was a hot tub we would of utilized it. Will definitely book again.

What an amazing property! It is only 15 minutes to the National Park. It is a quiet neighborhood. The house is spacious! Would highly recommend!

the owner did an excellent job with communication, before, during and after departure. We were traveling with a baby and she had a high chair and pack-n-play available. The home was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. The backyard is gorgeous and relaxing to sit outside. We enjoyed our stay and would stay again.

We had an amazing stay! From the very start we had great communication with the owner. She was so accommodating and helpful, offering suggestions of places to eat and things to do. She checked in to see how we were doing. We were greeted warmly with little details. The place was clean and had more amenities than we could have hoped. Check out was a breeze. It completely exceeded our expectations!

Rhonda is a kind caring host. The house is very comfortable and the back yard is an oasis. Don’t hesitate to book this property!

Great house. Very well supplied! Backyard was very private and had a fire pit and a lot of room for a larger group. The pool would be a wonderful attraction in the warmer months. The hostess Rhonda was so easy to work with. Highly recommended!

Wow! This was our best VRBO experience yet! This property had everything we needed and more! I over packed on the basics. Plus there were plenty of towels, bedding supplies, towel paper, papertowels, trash bags, cooking equipment, and dishes. The outdoor gas firepit was perfect for the cool evenings with plenty of propane. The house was well decorated, very clean, and the beds were very comfortable. The owner was so nice to work with and made everything so easy from check in to check out. Great home away from home. We will be back!

Great hostess

The accommodations were stellar! Many of the daily essentials were provided for us, so we didn't have to run to the store to shop right after we arrived.

The house is beautiful, comfortable, easy to manage 4 people and dogs. Great pool, wonderful comfortable yard with an outdoor space that’s very functional and comfortable. The house is equipped with everything you need and then some. Rhonda is so generous and thoughtful about everything that’s there for you to use. She communicated quickly and clearly for the questions we had. She is welcoming and warm. We could not have asked for a better experience. I would stay there again for sure!

We had an unforgettable amazing time and our host was the hostess with the mostest! The pool was wonderful, the house was comfy, clean, beautiful and loved the fall decorations. We loved having so many sitting area options. Great location. 5 stars!
