This newly refurbished 2BR/1BA offers a comfy Queen size bed, large bathroom with a shower/tub combo, kitchenette with a fridge, microwave, coffee maker & coffee, ceiling fan, A/C, heat, shared patio, posh linens & toiletries. We’re less than 10 minutes away from the Biosphere 2 and 15 minutes from Saddlebrooke Ranch. It’s 35 miles to downtown Tucson and 45 miles to TUS. The space “Robles” means “oak trees” and we are blessed with hundreds of mature oak trees surrounded by the beautiful high desert of the Catalina Mountains, with Mount Lemmon to the south. Less than an hour northeast of Tucson and at 4500 feet of elevation, EL RANCHO ROBLES is the perfect place to escape the heat. Our beautiful oasis is covered in shade and is typically 12-18° cooler than Tucson!! El Rancho Robles was established in the 1920’s and has a rich history, including famous guests that have stayed here. Throughout the decades, more buildings and casitas have been erected and all have been renovated. Our 24 rooms and casitas sprawl over 21 lush acres. The Ranch is also a magical venue for weddings, meetings and retreats, with amazing spaces for your next event. Take a dip in our wading pond, walk our beautiful trails, play horse shoes, corn hole, and bocce. If relaxing is your goal, we got you covered! Book a massage in the cabana by the wading pool. Lounge in your yard, patio or porch or on one of our gorgeous lawns. Stargazing is quite spectacular in our dark sky. BBQ’s & fire pits are available. Don’t forget the s’mores!
