About this villa rental

This Spanish style hacienda has 6000 feet of living space on 4 acres along a gently sloping ridge. Most of the inside is on one level with two steps down to a bath and two to the fourth bedroom.

The outside follows the contour of the ridge with three steps up to the garage and eight steps down to the pools.

We are close to up-scale restaurants and shopping and regional farmer's markets, yet in a private, relaxed setting.

The interior has carved wooden doors, leather and upholstered furniture, concert semi grand piano, original fine art, 3 interior working fireplaces, one is wood-burning, two feature gas logs. Large picture windows showing off stunning views of the Catalina Mountains or the lush pool area.

The well appointed kitchen is in the center of the home, with breakfast nook, library, living and dining room surrounding. The library has a game table and chairs, gas fireplace, and 55" HD TV.

The 3 large master bedrooms each with its own king size bed and bath, are at opposite ends of the house, making them ideal for any grouping of guests. Two of the baths have a jacuzzi tub, the third has a tub/shower combination. An additional small bedroom has twin beds and a full bath with shower. One of the king beds can easily be separated into twins.

There are 2 additional HD TVs, wine cooler, gas cook top, microwave, washer/dryer, whole house drinking water filtration system. Outdoor barbecue, covered seating areas with gas fireplace, tables and chairs for your enjoyment.

The large pool area, with zero edge pool surrounded by mature palm trees is separated from the house by gates and or a door alarm. If requested, the pool can be heated for an additional charge.
Our newest addition is a glorious Hot Spring brand SPA. It accommodates five to six people with lots of jets and three motor speeds to please everyone. You are going to love it. Obviously it is covered for safety with a very easy to open cover. The price of the heated SPA is included in the rent.
There are also two cozy enclosed outdoor courtyards each with table and chairs. A large outdoor ramada with gas log fireplace is a good place to sit by the fire on cool evenings or rainy days.
All this is surrounded by expansive natural vegetation where other desert residents including javelina, coyote, bobcat, rabbits, hummingbirds, woodpeckers, and quail can be seen at times.
The nightly tax of 12.05% is not applicable for reservations of 30 nights or more. Please keep that in mind when selecting your dates.
For guest number 7 and 8 there is an additional fee of $75.00 each per night.

This is the most beautiful property and house and Genii and Paul are wonderful hosts. We could not have asked for a better place to have a vacation. The house is so special - it is filled with Genii's beautiful paintings and there is something lovely wherever you look. We all had an absolutely amazing time here.

Conveniently located in the privacy of the Catalina Foothills Estates, the views from both sides of the house are breathtaking with sunrise and sunset over the distant mountains. The house is well appointed and provides every amenity you could hope for, and then some (the kitchen is way better equipped than my own). The furnishings and artwork make it warmer and more personal than most rentals. The design of the house allows for complete privacy between bedrooms. The pool is unique (including a wading pool) and spa are very well maintained. There are varied furnished outdoor spaces both in and out of the sun. We enjoyed the regular visits from the Great Horned Owl! The host was extremely available and attentive to all our questions. Thanks so much Genii for a fabulous stay and for anticipating our needs.
