This house was perfect for our trip to Tucson. Impeccably clean and artfully decorated- this adorable 1.5 bedroom home was conveniently located 2 blocks from University of Arizona. Erika provided a wonderful welcome gift basket for us and information about the local eateries, sights etc. The personal touches throughout the house made our journey to drop our oldest off at college an easy and enjoyable experience. We will definitely be staying here again when we come to visit our son. I highly recommend this gem of a home!

Really enjoyed our stay, amenities and location for a college campus tour of UofA. The space is very comfortable and feels like home. Just a short walk to the University. I would totally stay here again should my son commit.

Cute and Cozy Getaway
We loved this place- Everything was so welcoming and communication was excellent. The kitchen was well outfitted with everything we might need to make our meals while there to see family members living in the neighborhood. We walked to restaurants and groceries and gas were very conveniently close. Loved the garden and nice mornings outside on the porch. Plan to return when going to Tucson next.

A Perfect Home for relaxing as well
Our experience could not have been better! We love Tucson and the Sam Hughes neighborhood was perfect for us! The neighborhood is also extremely walkable. Erica thought of everything to make our visit fun and comfortable. She was even ready to bring over her own crockpot when I asked if there was one on the premises! The house is beautifully decorated and there are ample tables and chairs for outdoor entertaining. We hated to leave!

Excellent stay near the University
My wife and I had a very nice stay at this house. It is a short walk to the university. The kitchen is very well equipped. I'll note that the front of the house is located on a fairly major road but it was surprisingly quiet at night and since we spent our evenings in the backyard (which is very nice) we didn't hear any traffic at all. I'd love to return!

Total hospitality
Great long weekend in Tucson with an incredible hostess. This cute bungalow was equipped with everything one could possibly need. The king size bed has to be one of the most luxurious, comfortable beds we have ever slept in! Front and back patios are beautifully appointed, private and comfortable. Erica was fabulous, and incredibly responsive. I hope we can come back soon!

Visiting UofA
I took my son to visit UofA. This house was just off campus. Everything about the property was absolutely perfect. It was small but everything was so well appointed. I will definitely stay here on a regular basis if my son decides to go to UofA.

Super cute place
We had a warm welcome and perfect stay. This place was just big enough for my husband, daughter and I to enjoy The U of A Family Weekend with our WC. We were only a mile from campus. We found everything we needed In this cozy duplex. Even found eggs in fridge and a nice bottle of wine chocolates.

The Perfect Location
The well appointed Villa Blanca Pajaro is a great villa in the perfect location to move my daughter into UA. It is convenient to campus and also well situated to just about all things Tucson. Great dining and shopping options nearby with lots of fun places to explore. Erica, our host, went above and beyond to make sure our stay was as enjoyable as she could make it, including following up to let us know we left a precious memento behind and arranging for us to retrieve it. I can't wait to return to Villa Blanca Pajaro in the very near future!

The Best
Erica is simply the best! She is a wonderful person, an excellent VRBO owner, and the home is absolutely stunning. It looks great in photos, but is even better in person. If you are taking a trip to Tucson — whether for vacation, to visit family, or for business — please do yourself a favor and stay here. The best VRBO I've ever had the pleasure of staying at!
