Description

If you've come to Tucson to really be a part of the desert, this is an excellent choice. A modern adobe home surrounded by 5 acres of cacti and paloverde, Casa Tierra is on the west side of Saguaro National Park's Tucson Mountain District, and has fabulous views of a saguaro landscape and the surrounding mountains. Surrounding a central courtyard with a desert garden and a fountain is a candlelit, covered portal--a seating area where guests congregate. The rooms have queen beds, brick floors, and private patios; the family suite includes two bedrooms, a bathroom, a dining area, and a library area. Breakfast here is truly gourmet, ranging from stuffed French toast with prickly pear syrup to green-chili polenta. In terms of facilities, there's an exercise room and a common area with TV, stereo, and games. Another perk: an outdoor whirlpool spa that makes a perfect stargazing spot at night; a telescope is provided!
