Our stay at Hilltop Casa was very enjoyable! The beds are comfortable and the townhome was well appointed. We enjoyed sitting on the covered patio looking towards the mountains. The shops and restaurants are a short walk away.

Nice condo

Overall great place, great location. Nicely furnished and appointed and the Art TV was super cool...need one of those in my house. It has a nice covered patio, where you can hear the street noise but it is not obnoxious. A great place to drink coffee in the cooler mornings. We traveled back and forth from U of A and it was about 20 minutes or so. Great to be by a nice outdoor mall with lots of food options, including a local grocery store.

Bliss in the desert

The condo in the Catalina foothills is perfect in every way. Stunning views, comfy beds/furnishing and thoughtful extras (emergency toothbrush, extra towels, spa robes, pool supplies). The location is very handy to many hike trails, UofA, and shops/restaurants. I’ve already booked another stay!

The best place to stay in Tucson!

We absolutely loved everything about the hilltop casa- a beautiful & well appointed property, great decor, awesome views and convenient location. Close to hiking, restaurants, and top attractions, yet very private. Jacqueline, the owner, was attentive and had wonderful suggestions for hiking and eating. Our new favorite spot to stay in Tucson!

Love at First Sight

The location of this property is amazing. It sits high on hill which allows for unobstructed views of the Catalina Mountains. The southwest decor is very tasteful with wonderful little touches throughout the home. Our favorite spot was the porch for afternoon sun and, for me, the window seat was perfect for the rainy or chilly days. Owners were very responsive and friendly! We definitely will return!

Oh, Those Views!

A wonderful place! The patio is perfectly situated to take in unobstructed, stunning views of the beautiful Catalina Mountains - just incredible. Equally lovely inside - completely updated, stocked and spotless. For someone who cooked every night, couldn’t be happier with the kitchen. Proximately to restaurants, hiking trails, outstanding grocery stores, art galleries and other shopping a real bonus. Superb hosts, seamless check-in/check-out. An excellent VRBO option in Tucson!

Graduation Stay

We stayed at this property when we were in Tucson for graduation ceremonies ot U of A. It is a beautiful spot. The view is great. The unit is the best of the group. Inside is great. We enjoyed our time and would stay again. (minor detail: I could not figure out how to tune in ABC/NBC live on the TV but we were not there to watch TV and did not bother to contact the host.)

We had a wonderful time and loved the property.

This was our first time in Tucson. We liked the location, and by the second night it felt like a home away from home. Kitchen is perfect, the house was spotless and it felt like we are walking into a top notch spa. Jacqueline is a great host available when necessary. Provided great tips and fun little gifts. Worked wonderful for our family grown up and kids.

Great condo near Sabino Canyon!

My college bestie and I loved our time at Jacqueline & TJ's condo. They were super responsive and paid attention to all of the details! The pool and hot tub were an added bonus that we highly recommend taking advantage of. The kitchen is well stocked so hit the grocery store and prepare to cook in! Sabino Canyon is a short drive and well worth experiencing.

About the host

Hosted by Jacqueline Hammond

Host profile image
We love the southwest and everything the high desert of Tucson has to offer. We spend most of our time outdoors mountain biking, hiking, running, and gardening. We love the art scene with local pottery collectives, art studios, furniture making spaces. Also, the food in Tucson can't be beat with many farm-to-table options.

Why they chose this property

When we saw this property perched on a hilltop with unobstructed views of the desert we fell in love. The house is located in one of the best areas of Tucson, The Foothills, with access to some of the best shopping and restaurants around.

What makes this property unique

One of our favorite things about the house is how when the sun sets it bathes the rooms in a beautiful, golden light. That plus we love the location and all the community amenities available with spa/hot tub, heated pool, workout room, and tennis courts!
