The location is perfect for walking or running the loop and only a short walk to Trader Joe's. Perfect for a short or long term stay - we stayed four months and had everything we needed! The hosts are extremely welcoming and responsive to any potential needs. We would love to stay again if we are in the area! ##### Caitlin C.

Feb 13, 2024 #### The Hidden Desert Gem is a great place, in the best location, and the host was AMAZING! The Hidden Desert Gem is an amazing place to stay. Honestly, the property is more beautiful in person! The condo exceeded our expectations. Jeanne thought of everything you would want/need as a guest to make your stay away from home wonderful. As soon as we opened the door I smiled and knew we would be comfortable here. The experience overall was very welcoming and spoiling at the same time. Jeanne left a welcome note and a lovely surprise for us. She consistently reached out daily to check on us, which made us feel very special. Jeanne (and her team) are great hosts and have gone above and beyond in their hosting duties. I must admit it is hard to impress me and she receives a gold star. ##### Shaneetra G.

It was my first visit to Tucson and we loved staying at this gorgeous condo! Where do we start…. \*The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed and more! Pancakes yes please ;) \*The home is sparkling clean, stylish, modern and luxurious! \*5 star hotel quality bed, linens, towels and robe! \*The host is responsive and helpful throughout our stay! But wait there’s more….This was the perfect launching pad for all our adventures like visiting the Saguaro National Park and the zoo. I had to work part of the time and the WiFi was lighting fast w/ a work station that was completely comfortable for my hours in front of the computer. My family enjoyed walking on the river walk every night and we walked to St Phillips plaza for live music and dinner on the weekends. We loved our stay and highly recommend it to anyone. We will be back! Thanks for providing such a lovely stay! ##### Ashley A. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [El Conquistador Tucson, A Hilton Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Tucson-Hotels-El-Conquistador-Tucson.h15981.Hotel-Information) > > [CIVANA Wellness Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-CIVANA-Wellness-Resort-And-Spa.h841899.Hotel-Information) > > [Mesa Spirit RV Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Mesa-Spirit-RV-Resort.h61523213.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Camelback Inn Scottsdale Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Camelback-Inn-Scottsdale-Resort-Spa.h12821.Hotel-Information) > > [The Phoenician, a Luxury Collection Resort, Scottsdale](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-The-Phoenician.h10645.Hotel-Information) > > [Sonesta Suites Scottsdale Gainey Ranch](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Sonesta-Suites-Scottsdale-Gainey-Ranch.h200705.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Paradise Valley - Scottsdale](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-DoubleTree-Resort-By-Hilton-Paradise-Valley-Scottsdale.h25521.Hotel-Information) > > [ADERO Scottsdale Resort, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-ADERO-Scottsdale.h577892.Hotel-Information) > > [Andaz Scottsdale Resort & Bungalows](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Andaz-Scottsdale-Resort-Bungalows.h15614617.Hotel-Information) > > [Talking Stick Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Talking-Stick-Resort.h3374607.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Grand at Wild Horse Pass](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-At-Wild-Horse-Pass.h890737.Hotel-Information) > > [Apartment for rent on golf course will consider six months rental](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Condo-For-Rent-On-Golf-Course-Would-Consider-Six-Month-Rental.h35168627.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Adeline, Scottsdale, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Hotel-Adeline.h2615.Hotel-Information) > > [Scottsdale Plaza Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Scottsdale-Plaza-Resort.h240.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Scottsdale Resort & Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Hilton-Scottsdale-Resort-Villas.h7862.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Desert Oasis Villas, Scottsdale](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Sheraton-Desert-Oasis-Villas.h154318.Hotel-Information) > > [Gila River Resorts & Casinos – Wild Horse Pass](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Wild-Horse-Pass-Hotel-Casino.h2899888.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Club Vacations Scottsdale Resort by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Club-Vacations-Scottsdale-Resort.h11141.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Vacation Club Scottsdale Villa Mirage](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Scottsdale-Villa-Mirage-By-Diamond-Resorts.h98926.Hotel-Information) > > [Scottsdale Parkview Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Scottsdale-Parkview-Resort.h9531.Hotel-Information) > > [Mountain Shadows Resort Scottsdale](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Mountain-Shadows-Resort-Scottsdale.h16715713.Hotel-Information) > > [Wekopa Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Wekopa-Casino-Resort.h1246316.Hotel-Information) > > [Great Wolf Lodge Arizona](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Great-Wolf-Lodge-Arizona.h33725739.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Scottsdale Princess](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Fairmont-Scottsdale-Princess.h21894.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott Phoenix Resort Tempe at The Buttes](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Marriott-Phoenix-Resort-Tempe-At-The-Buttes.h82743.Hotel-Information) > > [The Scott Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-The-Scott-Resort-Spa.h2557.Hotel-Information) > > [Staybridge Suites Scottsdale - Talking Stick by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Staybridge-Suites-Scottsdale-Talking-Stick.h39626767.Hotel-Information) > > [Embassy Suites by Hilton Scottsdale Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Embassy-Suites-By-Hilton-Scottsdale-Resort.h98.Hotel-Information) > > [The Wigwam](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-The-Wigwam.h4965.Hotel-Information) > > [Scottsdale Camelback Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Phoenix-Hotels-Scottsdale-Camelback-Resort.h1184132.Hotel-Information)
