Ratings and reviews
5.0 / 5.0
Had a pleasant and relaxing stay in the Vantana Canyon condominium. Stayed in a similar but smaller unit last year and the extra room here was much nicer, the only negative being its 2nd floor location with no elevator. The plus to that, though, is the nicer view of the hillside and canyon with all its beautiful scenery and visible wildlife. We even had three different bobcats lounging in the scrubs our first few days plus many different birds.
5.0 / 5.0
We have stayed here several times. I could gush about how clean it is, or how they had everything we needed, the friendly & quiet neighbors, or its great location and easy access to Sabino Canyon and Ventana Canyon Trailhead for hiking, but just the fact that we come back says it all.
5.0 / 5.0
Great property, well equipped kitchen and nice finishes. The condo area is nice with a good workout room and nice pool. Walking distance to trails

Spent a few dollars per night more for a 2nd floor unit… well worth it. Beautiful views of the Catalinas, sun and moon rises over Reddington Pass. Very clean, well furnished, bedrooms well separated for some privacy. Best feature is a screened balcony w/ table and chairs with all the great views of the high desert. My wife and daughter loved it.
5.0 / 5.0
This condo complex is in a great location for hiking the beautiful mountains and canyons of Tucson. The complex grounds were quiet and well maintained. The condo was very clean, tastefully decorated and well stocked. The living room furniture and beds were very comfortable. The porch had beautiful unobstructed views of the mountains to the north as shown in the photos, however in winter (with no leaves) the views to the east overlook the Loews parking lot and building roof more than I expected. There are gorgeous views of the mountains beyond the Loews, with beautiful sunrise and moonrise views over the mountains. Overall a great place to stay.
5.0 / 5.0
Well appointed and peaceful. We used the condo as a home base, and it did not disappoint! Watching the birds and javelina entertained us in the morning with our coffee on the screened porch and reviewing our day in the comfortable living room in the evening made a stressful trip less so.

This is a very private unit in the back of the condo complex. The kitchen had everything needed for cooking. We loved the screened porch and the beautiful view of Ventana Canyon. Close to grocery, shopping, and hiking. We enjoyed our stay!

Fabulous Accommodations
Stunning views from owner bedroom, living room, kitchen, guest bedroom, and especially the screened-in porch. We spent hours sipping coffee and looking out at the views. This particular condo unit may well have the best views in the whole complex. Very quiet--often just heard the stream and birds. Beautifully furnished with interesting decor. Washer and dryer got used 3 or 4 times--very useful feature of the condo. We entertained friends one night, starting on the porch to watch the sunset and then moving to the dining area. Our guests loved the condo as much as we did. The manager, Mike, is extremely prompt in responding to questions. Overall, a delightful and perfect 9-day stay.

Great location and live the view!
The location right up against the foothills is fantastic. The ventana canyon trailhead is literally out the back door, which is a huge attraction.
This unit has a screened porch with a huge saguaro right outside the window. We spent most of our time while in the unit on the porch; fantastic. The unit was super clean and nicely decorated with southwestern art and rugs.
Great location to easily get to great hiking. Had a great time!
