Casita in Civano

We stay here at least once a year! Our son lives nearby and we love the privacy here. Scott and Kalei keep their property clean and welcoming. We always have everything we need. The neighborhood is close to Saguaro East, stores and restaurants. We enjoy walks to Civano Nursery and throughout the planned Civano area. This is a great place for a couple to stay for a Tucson visit!

Active Sun Break

What a great spot for enjoying all that Tucson and the beautiful landscape around it have to offer! After days spent biking and hiking, it was wonderful to return to the casita for a quick dip in the neighborhood pool and then enjoy the quiet patio for the evening. Kalei was so welcoming and had great recommendations for fun things to do (thanks, Kalei, for suggesting the film festival!). The casita was spotless and had all of the amenities needed to have a comfortable stay. The view of the mountains is lovely and there are several peaceful areas for enjoying the warm mornings and evenings. We highly recommend the casita, both because it is such a lovely place and because it is hosted by wonderful people.

Casita Extraordinaire

Our casita stay was the absolute best as were the hosts, Scott and Kalea! We could not have found a more desirable and beautiful place to spend our vacation. The mountain views and the proximity to a wealth of restaurants and natural desert attractions was a complete delight. We even got treated to a desert thunderstorm! We agreed that when we return to Tucson again, we will assuredly be coming back to our newly "adopted" casita and a side of Tucson that we had not known about until this May vacation.

We have stayed here 3 times and will continue to book here as long as we have family in the area. The casita is always neat and clean, linens are so nice and the kitchen suits our needs. Kalei and Scott are great “hosts” and provide any info to help make your stay a good one! Thank you again for a perfect visit to Tucson

Very cozy, comfortable accommodations

We were traveling to Tucson for a wedding that was at Saguaro Buttes nearby. The casita was up a flight of stairs where we found a nice sitting area. View to surrounding homes were lovely. Casita has plenty of space for us with queen bed, private bath, living room and kitchen. Full fridge and stove (we didn’t use) All amenities we wanted were there—soft linens and towels, Keurig coffee maker, etc. Quiet neighborhood, close parking spot.

Lovely weekend

My daughter & I found this property to be perfect for our long weekend together; the unit was spotlessly clean and well appointed; we loved the neighborhood and its walking paths, including the one the leads to a tiny, family-run bakery. It was quiet and relaxing; we enjoyed hearing the local owl and coyotes. Scott & Kalei were very responsive and helpful.

This is our second stay this year at the cute one bedroom casita. Perfect place to stay when visiting family. Extremely clean, good A/C, perfect for two adults. Very close to Saguaro East. The owners are always on top of everything and willing to offer suggestions of things to do in Tucson. We will definitely be back!

Awesome room

This was exactly what we needed. This property was able to house myself in the bedroom and the added benefit of a sofa bed for my son, which many places did not offer. The room was VERY neat and the sponsors went out of their way to ensure every possible amenity was available. It was also priced lower than other places offering less. I would highly recommend this to anyone. Just so you know though, there are stairs that need to be climbed to get to the room. Would definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Scott and Kalei Harmon

Host profile image
We moved to Tucson 15 years ago from San Diego and love the relaxed and friendly vibe of the desert. Scott is a San Diego native and Kalei was born and raised in Hawaii. We love to meet new people from all over the world and are happy to answer questions or make recommendations. If we are out back having a bonfire, you are welcome to join us. Of course, we respect your privacy if you prefer to keep to yourself. Scott loves to golf and watch all sports (he's an encyclopedia of stats) and Kalei is a professional photographer in addition to her "day job" as a speech-language pathologist. We hope you enjoy your stay!
