Family-friendly vacation rentals in Downtown, Tucson

We really loved our stay at the Casita! The setting is just beautiful, surrounded by mountains and cacti, and the property is peaceful and private. However, we were just a mile or two from the grocery store and great restaurants too! It was the perfect home base for all the hiking we did, and the Casita itself was spacious, clean, and well stocked with everything we needed. Ken was incredibly kind and helpful, and he made us feel right at home. We were really sad to leave and can't recommend this place enough!

One of the best stays I’ve ever had! Beautiful place/location, very relaxing and clean! Hosts are extremely kind and helpful! The price was very reasonable for what you get, lots of local recommendations from the hosts, and even in the guest house there was plenty of privacy! Couldn’t ask for a better stay!

Shanna was a great host—always responsive and one step ahead with preparations and information. The house was very comfortable and well equipped. The central location was perfect for us and our daily activities and the kids loved the hot tub.

From the moment we booked Kathaleen’s casita, we were impressed. Her friendly, helpful communication was wonderful. She made us feel so comfortable and welcomed us with chocolates, fruit, coffee, milk and even all the ingredients to make a tasty breakfast the first morning. We loved sitting on both porches listening to the rich birdlife and cactus in bloom. Biking and hiking opportunities were close and wonderful. We would absolutely highly recommend this lovely casita to all who want the perfect Tucson experience. Thank you SO much M. Kathaleen❣️

We loved staying here. What a beautiful space in a great location. Hadley thought of everything and was a great host!

I loved this place! The back patio and indoor atriums were so peaceful. Waking up to hummingbirds right outside the bedroom door was delightful!! Highly recommend!!

When looking for a place in the Tucson area, I needed a place close to the people I was visiting. Sybil's location was perfect. Then I looked at the condo and it had all that we required - a master bedroom with a large closet - and lots of hangers - and a full bathroom. The second full bathroom and a pull out couch made it perfect. The kitchen had all the needed tools and dishes to serve 6 for meals - the chairs on the small "patio" meant enough seating. The washer and dryer were a blessing. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub on a daily basis. Sybil was great to touch base as we were preparing to come and her directions were clear and easy to follow. The delicious homemade chocolate croissants were a wonderful first breakfast - so easy to prepare and so tasty. Sybil responded to all inquiries in a timely manner. I would recommend Sybil as a host and her condo as wonderful place to relax and to use as a base to explore Tucson. Thank you for helping to make a good holiday great, Sybil.

We loved our time at this place and enjoyed the greater Tucson area very much. It was perfect for our 2 month winter stay. The home has nice updates, was clean, beds were comfy, and is well appointed with everything we needed to feel at home. Great location near the Tucson Mountain foothills. Close to Saguaro National Park and Desert Museum. Great hiking trails nearby. 10 minutes from beautiful downtown Tucson. We would absolutely return to James and Suzanne's place.

Loved the cosy casita! The location was great for our family visit! The patio is so pleasant with the buzzing of honeybees in the flowers and visits by hummingbirds!! Thanks for a great stay, Rudy!

This was our second stay in Elizabeth's Tiny House. She is an attentive host and quickly responds to any questions or problems. We love being able to eat our meals out in front of the house. We also like the security of being behind a locked gate at night. There was plenty of room for our truck. Having an on-site washing machine is very convenient. We are able to go hiking and biking right from the house without having to drive. We enjoyed our stay and hope to be able to come back in the future.

This was our second stay here and we enjoyed it just as much as the first time! The new kitchen is wonderful, with everything you could possibly need. Beds are comfy, everything was clean and the artwork and decor are fantastic! The backyard and pool area are the highlight for us and very much enjoyed sitting out there and relaxing. Shawn was very responsive and reached out several times to make sure all was ok and if we needed anything. Great place!

What a neat little find! Spacious enough with 3 bedrooms. Very eclectic, Southwestern feel to the place. Clean and comfortable. Close to a lot of restaurants and sights. Shannon was a great host! Great communication!

Teresa’s place was just what we were hoping for and exactly how it was described- peaceful, beautiful surroundings, private and very clean. Teresa and her husband went out of their way to make our stay memorable. We even had a very relaxing experience using their float therapy - first time trying something like that- and we really enjoyed it! Teresa’s place is in a quiet neighborhood, yet close to grocery stores, restaurants and our favorite- excellent hiking spots. If you want to really unwind and have peace and beautiful surroundings, this is the place for you. We loved it and would go back if in the area- in a minute!

I really loved this little unit!! The size was super comfortable for my solo week-long stay, and the traditional style was very neat and really immersed me in the Tucson vibes. The place had all the amenities and kitchen and laundry items I needed to take care of my food needs for the week, and it was super clean and easy to use. The bed was super comfy, I honestly didn’t want to leave! Maxwell and Cecilia were really proactive to deal with any questions or issues I had and they were helpful and friendly about everything!

The host was very helpful and was flexible with check in and checking out. The house is old but all the amenities are new and work well. Kitchen was well equipped, I got to sit outside in the sun and the shadow of the backyard trees. Ac works well and there are multiple fans you could use. Water pressure was great. I totally recommend this place.

We stayed in Von’s apartment within a house for a month. Completely private with its own entrance in a very nice quiet neighborhood conveniently located to a bunch of stuff to keep you busy! Place had a fairly well stocked kitchen, large shower, and a comfy bed. Host was also very responsive to our requests. Nice place!

Great little casita in a safe neighborhood. Pool area was lovely, as was the private front yard. Kitchen was well stocked and clean. Even though the casita is on the host property we rarely saw them and never heard them; seems like same for them as they never heard our crying baby! Pool was a little chilly but that’s expected for early April. I personally didn’t find the beds that comfy but everyone has different likes. Overall this was well worth the price and I’d return again!

Shelly’s place is one of the best Airbnbs that we have ever stayed in! It was clean, comfortable, cozy, walkable to great restaurants and in a great area in Tucson. We were unable to enjoy swimming in the pool due to the cool temperatures while we were there but hanging out around the pool area was very relaxing. Would love to return here if we are in Tucson again!

This was one of the most comfortable places I've stayed during vacation! The prime bedroom bed was very comfortable and the sheets were so soft. Yes, really! I don't think I've ever complimented sheets in an Airbnb before, but I just had to this time. I loved walking through the neighborhood because it felt safe and there were sidewalks leading to stores and restaurants. The hot tub was amazing! The temperature inside was always perfect. There was plenty of room in the kitchen and dining room. I even loved how there was a long hallway between the living area and the primary bedroom, so we could go to bed early and didn't hear the TV in the living room. Eric was the perfect host!

Our second stay here. Always enjoyable. any questions or inquiries are responded to very promptly. The home is well supplied with with all necessary items including a variety of books.

Kristen’s place was just what we needed for our spring break trip. We felt completely at home and looked forward to coming back after our daily outings. The house was cozy and had all the amenities we needed to be comfortable and feel secure. The pool was amazing and I truly enjoyed spending the time there with my kids. Thank you! We would love to come back next time we are in town!

My team and I enjoyed our stay

Very much enjoyed Teresa's townhome. The location is very private and great views of the mountains. The home is very nicely maintained. Would recommend 100%

We are so grateful to have found Tranquil Bears Path Casita during a quick, last minute trip to Tucson. Michael and Margaret were extremely hospitable - we appreciated them taking the time to meet us and show us around. We wanted something quiet and relaxing, so this stay was just what we needed! The bottled water, ice maker and snacks were thoughtful touches.
