About this property

Hacienda near Ritz Carlton 360 views on 5 ac, all bdrms ensuite bathrms

Bienvenidos to Pasos del Cielo! - a unique opportunity to experience hacienda living with breathtaking 360 degree views and resort style amenities in a true southwestern retreat. Situated on five acres with over 5,400 sq feet of living area, the hacienda provides spaciousness and privacy - yet is just minutes away from the Ritz Carlton Dove Mountain, world-renowned Miraval Spa,
golf and shopping.
Stunning panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and desert make unforgettable sunsets and star-studded evening skies. Beautifully appointed with quality furnishings and luxury amenities, the home features 4 bedrooms (3 king, 1 queen) each with an en suite bathroom, a huge chef's kitchen, large great room, formal dining room, separate library, music gallery with piano, and office.
And whether you plan to play chef or have us hire one for you, you'll find the kitchen a pleasure. Fully stocked with every convenience and an island seating bar, it features a large prep area with two sinks, an indoor grill, six-burner gas stove, double ovens, and wine refrigerator all surrounded by hand crafted custom mesquite cabinetry.
Outside, the main 3000 sf patio area is like dehaving your own resort with a 50' swimming pool (see heating note below), built-in gas and charcoal barbecues with entertainment bar-- plus pool house with sauna, wet bar and outdoor shower. Guests enjoy evenings for s'mores and conversation around the fire pit, the sounds of the Spanish fountain, and the native flower gardens, orange, grapefruit and pomegranate trees. Two additional patios provide guests with quiet space for watching the birds and butterflies or just taking in the sun.
Upstairs, the 600+sf master suite is a private oasis with a balcony affording majestic views, a charming loft with wood burning fireplace and wet bar for toasting the sunset. The master bath also has its own balcony, walk in shower and jacuzzi.
Best of all, Pasos del Cielo offers the opportunity to relax and experience the beauty of the desert on your own five acres, hike and bike for miles outside your door, and play golf, shop and dine — just minutes away. As one guest said recently in his review, "There aren't many guarantees in life, but this is one of them, I promise you." I'm happy to assist with any special arrangements you might need and look forward to the opportunity of having you!
IMPORTANT NOTES:
- Minimum age of the contracting guest - 30 years. Because of the layout of the home and property, I regret that I can only accept children 10 years or older.
- Pool heating: If you would like to use the pool heating system, there is a charge based on season/weather due to the size of the pool and the cost of propane. Please contact me for any questions.

Hacienda Heaven

4 business colleagues attended an industry event taking place at the Ritz Carlton. We initially chose it for the close proximity to the Ritz. Everything else was a huge bonus! Close proximity to grocery store and restaurants. Hacienda is as described and better. While not completely remote, it is peaceful, relaxing, and quiet. Unfortunately, most of our 4 days were spent off property, but we carved out enough time to enjoy the spacious and well appointed home. Jan and Craig were gracious and responsive hosts, made us feel at home. Was able to feed the horses on site. It was a Hacienda Heaven.

Perfect Family Getaway

What a wonderful home and property this was! Large house with lots of space for everyone in our family. Sits in a quiet neighborhood and you feel secluded as it’s a gated property but grocery store and restaurants just a few minutes away. So much outdoor space to enjoy, especially the pool area and the HORSES! We loved seeing them every day. Jan was the most gracious host and quick communication if we needed anything.Highly recommend!

Luxury and privacy

This amazing 5 star property was just like presented on the site, except better! This home was designed fro opulent gatherings of groups of people where the host couple would have an enormous "owners suite" on the top level and the guest would all have their own private luxury appointed rooms, each with its own bath and shower. The amazing kitchen is designed fro group gatherings and comes complete with literally every kind of gadget you would ever need. A formal dining room added a special touch of ambiance for special candle light dinners. The sprawling pool was clean and refreshing and the massive pool deck included a pool house with a large steam sauna and a relaxation lunge as well as pool toys. The magnificent orange, grapefruit and pomegranate trees were abundant and supplied never ending amounts of fresh squeezed juice made in the provided juicer. Jan and Craig were the ultimate hosts and were always available but not intrusive. The 5 acre grounds provided privacy, places to hike and even a small stable with two horses! The location is close enough to everything and just far enough to be off the beaten path. This is a must rent property. You will not be disappointed, in fact will be amazed and will definitely want to return.

Western Tucson Hascinda

This home is exactly as advertised. There were enough bedrooms and baths for 7 adults in our family reunion. The kitchen was our gathering area. The outdoor areas were beautiful flowering enclaves. The sunsets and night sky enchanting. There were only two issues: the location of the house, and the intense afternoon sun. I chose the house on the number of bedrooms, baths, kitchen, price--not its location.I am unfamiliar with Tucson and had no idea it was so far away from the eastern side where family lived.The sun in late afternoon made cooking dinner a challenge--it was so intense we blocked the sun with a tray placed in the large window over the kitchen sink. That helped. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Great time in Tucson

Four couples in their late 60s-70s spent a week. The house met all of our needs for cooking, and eating and hanging out. The patio area and pool were large and beautiful. Nice views of the mountains. Hosts were great and very responsive to a couple of minor things that came up. We would definitely stay there again if we were all in Tucson together.

Amazing Home and Delightful Owners

Home is absolutely beautiful, comfortable, spacious, and welcoming. Property is amazing to include a horse stable with 2 horses (which we fed carrots). Count your horses before we left cause one of our friends wanted to take them with us. But with all the shopping we did, had no room for them in our car. Hahaha!!! Owners Jan and Craig are super sweet and took great care ensuring we all had a wonderful girls trip. Would definitely come back to this amazing VRBO.

Very private hacienda in the sun

Wonderful inside and out. Extremely spacious and well decorated. Large kitchen with all necessary implements, including a juicer which you can use for fresh grapefruit and oranges in season. The grounds are great, too. Lots of birds and the coyotes howled for us one night. Polo, the horse, welcomes apples and carrots. The owner, Jan, is nearby and always helpful if you need anything. We would definitely stay again when back in Tucson.

Pasos del Cielo ~ the perfect place to stay!

This is truly the most special place we have ever stayed. We were in Tucson celebrating our daughter's graduation and stayed here with family. From the moment we booked the place to the time we had to say goodbye, everything was just perfect!! The home is gorgeous, the views are breathtaking, and the outdoor entertaining area is just absolutely amazing!! Jan, our host, was so sweet and had everything ready to go for us. We were welcomed with a yummy plate of cookies, a bottle of wine, and a note congratulating my daughter on her graduation. We loved meeting Sierra and Polo, her two horses, as well! We would often take a hike at night around the grounds and watch the sun set. It was almost too perfect to believe! Jan's home has everything you need and was spotless! It has that perfect personal touch and southwest style to make it feel like you are part of its history. We will definitely be back!

About the host

Hosted by Jan

Host profile image
I've been very lucky to live in some wonderful cities from Hollywood to NY, Washington, DC, San Francisco, and Chicago and have enjoyed them all, but always had a vision of one day having a hacienda in the Southwest. All those places were important influences in my life and in one way or another contributed to coming to Tucson and finding my dream home and the ambiance that it offers. I've been delighted to have wonderful, fascinating people find their way here and it's a joy to share this magical desert and home with you.
