The Isabella is an inviting, warm and cozy one bedroom adobe condo in Tucson’s Barrio Viejo or “old neighborhood”. Her charms include Saguaro cactus rib ceilings, thick adobe walls and brick paved floors. She is located in the Ochoa Court condo complex dating back to at least 1888. Cook yourself a gourmet dinner in her old meets new kitchen, lounge in the intimate back patio, relax and stream some movies in the desert chic living room and sleep well in the luxurious KingBed with memory foam mattress. This adorable historical condo is located within walking distance to downtown, the SunLink Streetcar to U of A, local brewpubs, coffee shops and restaurants including easy walks to 5 Points Cafe, the Meyers Cafe and lounge, and the Coronet. New to VRBO, but our first guests wrote....The Isabella is stunning inside and out. It is beautifully furnished with everything you could need. ....We enjoyed relaxing on the back patio in the evening with snacks and cold beers.

    My husband and I came to Tucson to visit our daughter for her baby shower. Our stay here was amazing! The property is so well appointed and the details of care and hospitality are present through. The location was ideal for us with a morning walk to the bakery a favorite on our list! We have already rebooked for our next stay when the baby is born!

    I always enjoy this comfortable and convenient barrio property. Communication with the property manager was excellent. I also really appreciate that they have little snacks for guests. I didn't partake this time, but they're nice to have in a pinch. The neighborhood is quiet and I feel quite at ease walking around solo. I hope to return!

    Great little house with charming shared courtyard in the Barrio Viejo part of Tucson. We used it as a base for hiking the National Parks and forests and it was perfect for the 2 of us. Clean and well appointed. Property manager was responsive and helpful. The one preference we would have is for a larger freezer as it was college dorm size but other than that it was fantastic.

This is an important neighborhood and I highly recommend learning about its history. Our host was just terrific too. Couldn’t have been a better experience.

    The Isabella is perfectly decorated to match the style of the home and area. We traveled with our dog and found a great little park at the end of the block for him so that was very convenient! The court yard is off limits to pets but it’s nice and shady with furniture to sit on and enjoy the surroundings. It’s a sweet quiet complex. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The kitchen is well stocked with most anything you would need, even a nice selection of spices! The location to downtown, grocery stores, restaurants & bars is a short drive and would be easy to walk to many places as well. This will be our go-to VRBO for any future visits to Tucson. The only thing missing were blackout shades in the bedroom, we are rather light senator but we were able to hang blankets over the areas that let in a lot of light. To be honest, I wanted to keep this place as our own little secret find but then that’s not a very nice thing to do :)

    The Isabella was very clean and well maintained. It was a cute place to stay for a visit to Tucson. We loved being able to walk to numerous locations in the downtown area. We also loved relaxing on the back patio area with coffee or perhaps a cold one.The bed was extremely comfortable and we had good sleep during our visit. Occasionally the house would let out a noise with the changing outside temps.Our only concern was changing the house to a dog friendly rental. I'm sure most other Americans will like that.

    We really enjoyed our stay at this property. It is spacious, with beautiful historic features. It was stocked with everything we needed (and more) for a long-term stay. The oven/microwave is tricky at first, but Jenn's instructions (posted on side of fridge) plus a youtube video were helpful. The neighborhood is quiet and walkable to many desired destinations. Great hiking is a reasonable drive in all directions. Communication with the host is first rate.
