Thank you, Wayne and Marilyn! Our 10 day stay in your beautiful casita was wonderful! We had everything we needed, so much beauty around us and it was so peaceful. THANK YOU! Bill and Teresa

My wife and I were visiting our daughter at University of Arizona. We decided to go early so we booked this place for a little over a week. We were very happy with the location, the accommodations and its relative closeness to U of A. The Casita is situated on the hill and has good views of the mountains to the east. I brought my mountain bike and was able to ride right from the Casita up to and around Mount Lemmon. Wayne and Marilyn are very good hosts and this will be a regular stop on our journey to Tucson.

Place was exactly as described. Everything we needed (and then some) was right there. From early morning coffee while watching the sun rise to relaxing after a day of exploring the desert, this place was wonderful. Very comfortable even when the outside temperature was in the 90's. Quiet neighborhood, but close to restaurants, grocery stores, etc. A short drive to all outdoor activities. Our hosts, Wayne and Marilyn were the best. Never intrusive, but always available. Wayne shared videos of bobcat cubs that grew up on the property. Definately a place I'd like to return to. Highly recommended.

Beautiful views. Great sunrise and sunsets. Bountiful wildlife. Owner has feeders out for birds. Very quiet and isolated yet groceries within 2 miles along with restaurants. Beautiful porch patio for eating and sitting. Owners are great super hosts. Highly recommend.

I picked Casita Naranja for my week-long climbing trip because of its location to the Catalina Highway and Mt Lemmon, and I couldn’t have been more pleased. Close enough to Mt Lemmon to get quickly to the areas at which I wanted to climb but near enough to shopping and dining for great convenience. Very quiet and the hosts were fantastic. I’ll stay again without any hesitation.

We had a marvelous, relaxing week at Casita Naranja, a clean, comfortable, cool (temperature) and well-appointed guesthouse that is on the edge of Tuscon but offers a welcome sense of remoteness. Our hosts, Marilyn and Wayne, were cordial and generous. They were able to accommodate our early arrival, and brought us fresh flowers and cheese and crackers during our stay. We spent much of our free time enjoying our patio seating that overlooks the beautiful desert hills, watching and listening to the birds and soaking in the scenery. The casita is in a quiet walkable neighborhood and also provides easy access to hiking an other recreation at Mt. Lemmon, Saguaro NP, and Sabino Canyon. Highly recommended!

Casita Naranja is pure delight! The setting, decor, comfort all superb.... the hosts Marilyn and Wayne incredible! Fingers crossed we shall return soon. The best!!

This was our second stay at Casita Naranja and we love it! We are birders and nature lovers and we get our fill each time we've stayed. Marilyn and Wayne keep the bird feeders full and they attract a great variety of feathered friends! We even had a pair of nesting Great Horned Owls in the palm trees nearby. We also found a great group to play Pickleball with just a few miles away, so it was the perfect stay and respite from the cold midwest!

Wonderful casita in the beautiful rolling hills of east Tucson. Close to everything but in a very private location. Everything was provided and then some. We will definitely return!

Looking over our toes each morning the sun rose warm and bright. A complete kitchen would have allowed us to make more than breakfast, but the suggested restaurant list made cooking unnecessary. The owners were as attentive to our needs as we were to the Quail, Humming and many assorted birds at the feeder. Living in a desert forest close to town added to the real feel of being in Tucson.

Our family had a WONDERFUL Christmas at Casita Naranja. It is a beautiful and charming location. It was peaceful, with scenic views from the back patio, as well as some excellent bird watching opportunities.

Beautiful location, watching birds and wildlife, neighborhood walks rivaling any desert cactus museum. Casita was equipped with everything we needed for a Thanksgiving feast with family and friends. We needed a longer outdoor table, and Wayne and Carolyn provided it. When not on the patio watching sunrise or reading (many great books provided), the comfy media room was our lounging area. Very comfortable bed, sung to sleep by coyotes just letting us know they were there first. We really enjoyed this VRBO!

I stayed at Casita Naranja for two weeks while I visited family. The location was exactly as described and perfectly situated for my stay. I loved that it feels outside the city while still being close to everything. It is an extremely quiet location with beautiful desert and territorial views and was also perfect for my morning exercise and walks. I loved watching the sunrise from the bedroom and front porch. Regular visits from quail and other birds added to the experience and a beautiful bobcat made a visit as well. I guess she's a regular around the property. Wayne and Marilyn communicated so well both before my arrival and during, checking in to make sure I didn't need anything. The casita is well stocked with everything you will need and it was like a home away from home. I went shopping on my first day and cooked most of my breakfasts in their well stocked kitchen. Bed was extremely comfortable and the living room is outfitted with a large TV with all channels. I brought my Roku stick so I had my premium channels which worked great. WiFi was EXCELLENT, no issues whatsoever and extremely fast. Can't recommend this property or the hosts more and I will certainly be staying here again in the future when I come back for a visit! You won't be disappointed!

We are happy to have found La Casita. The location was quiet with a peaceful morning view of the Rincon mountains along with a variety of birds feeding nearby. The house was generous and very comfortable. Safeway was nearby. Our hosts Marilyn and Wayne were most kind and eager to provide anything we needed. We would not hesitate to return.

The casita is cozy and charming. Wayne and Marilyn were amazing hosts. Sitting on the patio in the morning and watching the sunrise over the Rincon Mountains was such a joy. We’ll definitely return!

From the beginning communication with the owners' was easy. Questions answered promptly and payment was easy. They greeted us with wonderful treats and keys to the casita. The casita was very clean and neat. Ample towels available with some toiletries and it was roomy for 3 adults. The shaded patio was perfect for hanging out with family, watching clouds build and rain fall. The casita was close to grocery shopping, restaurants, hiking, biking, a dog park, Saguaro National Park and Mt. Lemmon. The owners were close by and checked in now and then to see if we needed anything. We highly recommend staying here because we had a very comfortable and positive experience!
