About this property

Views!! Gorgeous 2 bedroom en-suite Casita in Starr Pass

Casa de Sueños is located in prestigious Starr Pass, a golf community minutes from downtown, but tucked away on the Tucson Mountain foothills. It’s located on a private corner lot atop a hill with gorgeous views. Inside, is southwest decor with exposed beams and a cozy wood burning fireplace. We have two suites separated by a large living space. The primary suite has a Cal King wrought iron bed and writing desk. The guest suite has 2 comfortable queen beds. The primary bathroom has a separate soaking tub and walk in shower. The guest bathroom has a shower/tub combination.

Step outside onto the patio and you will see why we fell in love with Casa De Sueños. It is located on a hill where you can enjoy vistas of the mountains and city lights. Glance to your left and you'll see the JW Marriott. The community at Starr Pass is surrounded by a world class, 27 hole Arnold Palmer course. Play amongst the majestic saguaros, enjoy a meal at the Catalina BBQ Grill on the green! Guests may access the JW Marriott’s pool collection which includes a lazy river, slide and spa for 45/day per person by reserving directly on the resort’s website. Rates are seasonal.

Our Casita is fully furnished with all the amenities of home. We are tucked away in the Tucson Mountains, yet close to the U of A and downtown. Take a drive west for just 10 minutes, and you'll lose yourself in the beauty of the Sonoran Desert where the mountains and sunsets are breathtaking. Head East, and in 10 minutes you're in the center of town, where culinary choices abound and you can find fantastic places for cocktails, live music and culture.

If you're looking for a hiking experience, Casa De Sueños is surrounded by trails. My favorite is the Lorraine Lee Trail at the mouth of the JW Marriott just up the hill from us. The views are spectacular! After a 1.8 mile morning hike, head to the JW for breakfast and pop in to the Spa, where you can enjoy the views.

Consider returning in the evening to enjoy a sunset and cocktail from the most fabulous patio in Tucson! There is horseback riding nearby, the Saguaro National Park and The Desert Museum. To escape the heat in the summer, or to play in snow in the winter, head 1 hour northeast and enjoy Mt. Lemmon. 45 minutes south on I-19, you're in the charming town of Tubac. Bring your passport, then head to Nogales, Mexico a short drive away. Casa De Sueños is our home away from home and we welcome you to experience the wonders of the Sonoran Desert and the rich history and culture of the Southwest.

Beautiful Casita
We rented this property for my brother and his wife so that they could be near our home while visiting us. They absolutely loved the casita. It was beautifully decorated and more than fully equipped with not just necessities but also special amenities like members' access to the JW Marriot Resort's pool and workout facilities, tennis rackets, a fully equipped kitchen, washer and dryer, etc. The casita was exceptionally clean and wonderfully updated. The owner did a wonderful job of providing information about the casita and the surrounding community. We couldn't be more pleased with our choice. We've already recommended this casita to others and plan to use this casita again for visitors.

Favorite Casita in Starr Pass
My family stays in Starr Pass at least once a year to visit my parents and have rented several casitas in this resort. This one is by far our new favorite. Check-in was easy, the place was clean, and the instructions were easy to follow. Everything inside felt newer and fresher than previous units we have stayed at. New furniture, appliances, floors, and bathrooms made it feel fresh and new. The kitchen had most everything you could need. The washer and dryer was top notch! The owner answered any question I had promptly. The back deck is lovely and has a great view of Tucson and the Sonoran desert. This unit comes with a pool pass (M-Th only) to the JW Marriott which my 5-year old son loved. We will return to this casita again!

A Great Time at Starr Pass October 2023
This casita is in a prime location, with great views toward the main JW Marriott Resort, as well as, across the valley toward the Catalina Mountains. A swimming pool and a fitness area are within a short walk. The Pro Shop and golf course, as well as a restaurant are just beyond the pool. Additional restaurants and a large swimming pool with cabanas, and a lazy river feature located at the main resort, are a short drive or shuttle ride away. The casita is clean and well maintained and the two primary En Suites served three adults and a teenager well. We enjoyed the Saturday evening music at the resort while having dinner and enjoying views of the Tucson city lights. Communication with Thelma was excellent. Terry

Great Location to JW Marriott
A nice two bedroom villa located in the beautiful setting of the Arizona desert. A short walk to the Starr Pass Loop Trailhead if you enjoy hiking. Also, a short walk to the country club which provides shuttle to and from the JW Marriott. We were in town for a conference, and found the hotel to be sold out. That's when I found this location. Wonderful accommodations!

Casita with great mountain views
Very comfortable casita with great views. Really liked the separation between the bedrooms- lots of privacy for each couple. Liked having access to the hotel as well. Only thing is we realized we prefer staying closer to the foothills on the other side of the 10.

Beautiful Time in Tucson
I stayed for two nights at this beautiful property with my daughter and 12 year old granddaughter. The casita was perfect for us! Very clean, well-equipped kitchen, super comfy beds, a nice patio, great decor and a perfect location. It included access to the pool area and a work out area which we did not use but will definitely take advantage of during our next visit, which we hope will be soon. Thelma was a terrific host and communicated with us before, during, and after our stay. I am an experienced VRBO guest and this property was one of the best I have seen. We will be back!

About the host

Hosted by Thelma Gutierrez

Host profile image
Welcome to Casa de Sueños which translates into House of Dreams. If you sit on the patio at sunrise or sunset, you'll know why we chose the name. The desert landscape and horizon changes colors before your eyes. It comes alive in shades of green, blue, pink, purple and red. It is a wonderful spot to find inspiration and peace, or to simply relax...
Of all the places I have traveled to, the Sonoran Desert has my heart. I was born in Tucson and raised near Starr Pass. I am a proud Wildcat, a
U of A graduate who now resides in California.
It was always my dream to return to Tucson, but until we do, we wanted to have a small piece of the desert to go home to... a cozy Casita we'd like to share with you.

Why they chose this property

This property is special because it is located in the area where I grew up, most of my family lives with a mile or so of Starr Pass. The area is absolutely the best because it is tucked away in the foot hills of the Tucson Mountains, yet it's a quick 10 minute drive to the center of town. It's also quiet and a perfect place for star gazing because of a low light ordinance. Perhaps one of the main reasons for choosing this location, is because it is near to an incredible desert trail named after my cousin and mentor, Lorraine Lee, a tireless civic leader in the community. If you visit Starr Pass you'll know "why this property."

What makes this property unique

We loved the layout - the fact that it's on the end, high on a hill, has exposed beams, rustic doors and saltillo tile. It reminded me of my travels through Mexico, complete with the two-toned painted stucco on the exterior! Mainly, I love the location. All it took was walking out to the patio and immediately, I fell in love with the views. On top of that, we're close to the pool, restaurant, gym and tennis courts. I couldn't imagine a better pace to be!
