With nearly 300 days of sunshine each year, your odds of begin able to enjoy the outdoors are pretty good. In the evening, recount the day’s adventures as you gather around the propane fire pit table.
Speaking of the outdoors, our home is in the midst of an outdoor lover’s paradise. Take a hike in nearby Catalina State Park or on some of the other nearby trails. Play golf at one of the courses in the area. Walk or take a bike ride on “The Loop” a multi-use trail that is just minutes away. There are several parks close by with facilities for the entire family. Or make this your base for visiting the many other attractions in Southern Arizona.
If you love pickleball like we do, use the provided paddles and balls at one of the nearby court facilities. We'd love to join you if you need someone to play with.

I stumbled upon the Casa Serenidad listing while planning a last minute trip to the Tucson area. It seemed too good to be true by checking all of the boxes of everything we were looking for. The bed was comfy, house was clean and the kitchen well equipped. The pool and the back yard fire pit area are perfect for relaxing. There are plenty of games which we enjoyed. We took walks around the extremely quiet neighborhood every night and the views are amazing. The owners were very helpful with useful info in a guest book to navigate the house and surrounding area and they also have a basket of goodies and useful items around the house. Pat was quickly responsive anytime I had a question. I would Definitely recommend and/or stay here again if in the area!
5.0 / 5.0
We loved the layout and size of the home. I especially loved all of the natural light! Home is very comfortable, oftentimes the furniture is based off of looks and horribly uncomfortable. This is not at all the case! The kitchen has everything you need if you choose to cook. Pool and patio area is clean and beautifully decorated. We originally reserved another home from the same owners but had some AC issues so now I can say we were lucky enough to see both listings, both of which I will not hesitate to rent from next time we are visiting family.

The property was so amazing inside & outside. We all enjoyed everything about the house & stay. The owners were thorough as to what to expect & were very welcoming. The location was perfect & not far from eating out, shopping, & most important our venue. I would definitely recommend this property. You will definitely not be disappointed or dissatisfied. Thanks again to the owners for having such an immaculate property.

We very much enjoyed our ~week at the property. It was a wonderful place to get away and enjoy time off. The house is comfortable and comfortably furnished. The outdoors is private, quiet and well appointed. We cooked with ease and the location makes it easy to get to restaurants, parks and stores. The wash behind the house was a neat and close place to park. The owners were excellent in communication and responsiveness. A few minor issues were speedily and attentively addressed. I comment only as a compliment to the hosts vs the nature of the issues. We had no complaints - the entire experience was terrific and we would gladly return!

Casa Serenidad is a beautiful and well appointed home. The owners are incredibly easy to work with, and ready to answer any question or need at any time.
The home is comfortable and welcoming. The yard is a private oasis. The pool is easily kept clean with the robot, and having it heated made it very nice for the cooler but sunny days.
The owners keep the home in impeccable condition. It's very clean and inviting. We appreciated ample toilet paper, paper towel, cleaning supplies, the big first aid kit, and cooking supplies! I enjoyed cooking on the gas stove, and the pots & pans were all you needed, we used the grill quite a bit for dinners!
The home's close proximity to destinations in the Tucson area was great too! Everything you needed or wanted was very close by as well, grocery stores, restaurants, a hospital.
The neighborhood was very nice, seems like everyone has pride in homeownership, feels safe and welcoming as well.
Renting this home, was just like being at home. It was truly a wonderful stay.

This property was very clean, new, and had everything we needed and more! The pool, sitting area, with gas fireplace was nice after a long drive from Colorado. I really liked that there was not a lot of personal things around, that gave a lot of room to put our things. Tastefully decorated and communication was fantastic! Will stay again!

5.0 / 5.0
This house is exceptionally well appointed - they truly thought of everything guests might need during their stay. The pool in the back makes it a great option for a family with kids - and the hosts provided all sorts of pool toys for enjoying it.
The house itself is full of light with many skylights - I kept thinking I needed to turn the lights off, but it was just the sun! There are many amenities to enjoy, no matter which way your interests go. We made great use of the TV in the great room, but they also have an ample supply of games for a family. The hosts also provided great suggestions for things to do and places to eat - we took advantage of many of those suggestions. All in all - a terrific stay at a terrific place!

The property was outstanding. The owners were able to get us in for a little over a weeks stay in one day. This was extremely important as we had a death in the family on Saturday the 14th. We will be using this property again.

Beautiful Home
Our family of six enjoyed a wonderful spring break at this beautiful home. The photos offer a perfectly accurate glimpse of how wonderful this property is. The location is in a quiet neighborhood with beautiful mountain views everywhere you look. There is a nice trail network adjacent to the neighborhood that allows for easy trail running/walking. The outside pool and pergola/sofa were just perfect to enjoy the sunny afternoons after long morning hikes in the surrounding mountain parks. The inside of this home has everything you could possibly need for cooking full meals and relaxing around a warm fire in the early morning or late evening. Pat was excellent with communication and generous with his time providing recommendations and ensuring anything we could possibly need was addressed during our stay. We definitely plan on returning for another stay.

Gorgeous, perfect house
Our family of four had an amazing stay at Pat's lovely Casa Serenidad. It is rare to find a rental that has lovely accomodations (nice beds, quality/well appointed furnishings, nice kitchen and bathrooms), great location and good management. Casa Serenidad has all three. It is very centrally located near Splendido and close to many restaurants and grocery stores. My kids were able to have their own bedrooms and enjoy the pool. The outdoor area is lovely. Highly recommend Casa Serenidad. Best, Joanne

Spring Break Oasis
We just spent our Spring Break at Casa Serenidad and had a wonderful week! The property is exactly as advertised and suited our needs perfectly. Pat and Mary were excellent in terms of communication leading up to and throughout our stay. The kids asked if we could take the pool home with us, and from day one started talking about how great it would be to move to Arizona! I highly recommend Casa Serenidad. Hoping to come back in the future!

Lovely Home
We enjoyed staying at this lovely home, which was very comfortable and in a quiet neighborhood with incredible vistas of the Catalina Mountains. The location was also a short distance from stores, restaurants, and various hiking and walking trails. The hosts were very accommodating and made us feel at home upon our arrival. I highly recommend this property.

Friends get away
A childhood friend and I met up in Tucson for a week of warm weather and fun and we had the privilege of staying at Casa Serenidad. The home is a lovely place to call home base for a vacation week. The kitchen is well appointed, the beds are comfy and the back yard is like an oasis. It was a little cool yet, so we did not use the pool, but we enjoyed evening fires in the back yard and sitting out in the sun during some down time. We had a problem with one of the showers one morning, contacted the owner and it was fixed later that day. Pat is a great host, quick to answer questions and gave great suggestions to help us make the most of our visit. We will stay here again when we find ourselves in Tucson again!

A Gem
We have stayed in many VRBOs in Tucson and elsewhere and this ranks among the best. The house is immaculate. Everything is well organized and labeled. Pat has put together a great notebook about how everything works in the house. The kitchen was well stocked and even had an air fryer! The outdoor area was small but lovely- the pool water was too chilly for our visit but we enjoyed evenings around the fire pit.The neighborhood is quiet and very close to shopping as well as golf courses and an aquatic center. We stayed there a week with our children and grandchildren and all felt right at home! Pat was very responsive and welcomed us with a nice gift basket.
