Melinda’s property was fantastic! Our family loved it (includes a 16 and 22 yr old). So private, a quiet neighbourhood, and nature on the doorstep! The house was beautifully appointed, everything we could need. The location makes it easy to get around. Melinda answered any questions quickly and was attentive. We already miss it!

Oasis in Ora Valley

This property is absolutely perfect. The neighborhood is quite, safe and great for your dog walking. The entry way is inviting with a water feature. When you enter you are immediately impressed with the decor, furniture and overall warmth. The kitchen is extremely useable and has about everything you need to chef it up. Great options for coffee drinkers as well. The garage is been turned into a game room. The bedrooms were very nicely decorated and the beds are comfy and warm as well. The backyard is 2 levels with a hot tub/waterfall overlooking the pool and out to the desert. The hosts were extremely responsive and have really thought of everything, from labeling to having everything you need to experience a spa vacation in a beautiful area of Tucson. Can't wait to go back soon
