Amenities
We spent three weeks working remotely from here. The location is close to hiking and the views in every direction were amazing! Danielle & John are wonderful hosts - welcoming, friendly, responsive, helpful and all around super nice people! Both are local Tucsonans and therefore have real insights on where to go and what to do, and very happy to share their knowledge.
Solana Spanish Villas is a wonderful mini-resort, it has most of the amenities of a resort, pool, pickleball, small get away spots on the grounds but none of the crowds. We were there for two months and even when it was full it didn't seem that there were many other people around.
We travel with two dogs and Danielle and John were more than welcoming to our pets. There is plenty of space at the resort to walk the dogs and right across the street is a small county park with a couple of miles of dog friendly trails. Their maintenance person often had treats on his cart and he quickly became our dogs' favorite person! Our dogs were very happy there.
Danielle and John have a real gem and we highly recommend a stay at Solana Spanish Villas. Catherine

This was a hidden gem! John And Danielle were awesome and friendly. The peace that you automatically feel when first driving in is serene. This place is absolutely beautiful and can't wait to see the finished results when the property is complete! We had the casita for my daughter and the boyfriend and Villa #4 for the husband and I. our younger children came to visit and there was plenty of room for all of us while we waited for our home to start repairs. Kids loved it and was in such a great area of the Tanque Verde Valley. Will definitely recommend Solana to friends and family as the best hands down! Wow! What an AMAZING property, a real hidden gem in the desert - located in a bosque on the outskirts of town. Close enough to the city, but far enough away so you don’t have the disturbances of the city. A unique “mini-resort” with a few casitas/villas on private property, 2 laundry facilities and a gorgeous pool, just spectacular! Everything you need for a perfect stay. . . We had a fully equipped kitchen in #4, great for cooking in-house. Including a bbq on the private patio. Part of the property is still being renovated and a pond is coming soon. The hosts are very responsive and great to communicate with. Extremely hospitable 😊 We are very much looking forward to a future stay!
