Lonely Planet "Rooms in this gracefully aging 1930s resort are in hacienda-style casitas flanked by cacti and palm trees, and decorated in charmingly modern Southwest style." Full review
Rough Guide "1930s adobe resort a couple of miles east of downtown, tastefully restored to resemble a Mexican hacienda, with large, comfortable rooms and a good restaurant."
Gayot "Mature palm trees tower over the swimming pool, and there are lovely views of the Catalina Mountains off to the north."
Jetsetter "Hacienda-style digs in historic Tucson with a pool, desert gardens and modern American eats." Full review
Frommer's "The relaxing retreat looks a bit like a Mexican village, with narrow pathways winding between buildings. Guest rooms are in both hacienda-style adobe buildings, tucked amid cacti and orange trees." Full review
