"The hospitality of the hosts was exceptional." The accommodations were VERY comfortable. Thick towels and a comfy mattress made it that much better. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay over the three-day, two-night Labor Day weekend. What an enjoyable place for a getaway from the bustle of the city. Enjoying the pool and walking along Aravaipa Creek was at once delightful and restorative. The sunset on our first evening was amazing!
Such a quaint, beautiful, relaxing spot. The rooms are rustic yet comfortable in the way you want. And the staff could not have been friendlier nor more helpful. For a great experience the trip is definitely worth it.
My wife and I stayed in the Mountain Casita for 2 nights recently. It was a wonderful experience. The casita is extremely comfortable, private and artistically decorated. The meals prepared by the staff were unbelievable… better than any restaurant. The setting and grounds for the orchard and casitas are absolutely beautiful. We hiked into Aravaipa Canyon from the west entrance and really enjoyed it. I would highly recommend staying at Aravaipa Farms . It’s a very relaxing and wonderful experience
Hidden Gem and less than a two hour drive from the Valley! Shelly and I loved our return trip to Aravaipa Farms Orchard and Inn (AFOI). Everyone was friendly and helpful, especially Angelina! The dogs are fun to be around - Cootie, Desi, and Guillermo! The fruit and fresh baked bread is delicious.The hike into the Aravaipa Canyon was as enjoyable as the last time. Looking forward to another stay at AFOI!
What a magical place! Off the beaten path, private, and beautiful grounds. The staff are amazing! My family absolutely loved our stay!!
I stayed with friends over the weekend and it was a memorable one because this place is so peaceful, beautiful and inviting. We had a meal delivered the first night that was just delicious. The second day/evening we made all of our own meals. Great kitchen and wonderful "farm table to accommodate all of us comfortably. Our casita was decorated with charming SW ceramics, paintings and other decor. The bathrooms were super clean and stocked with great cotton towels. Beds super comfortable. Two of the best things to happen while we were staying at the Inn. First the beautiful butterflies that greet you upon arrival and second the delicious pears that we picked ourselves in the orchard.
What a magical place. Beautiful guest casitas, lovely property, lovely host. Quiet, tranquil, extrememly comfortable bed, cozy. Really nice place to chill :)
Awesome place, close to Tucson. 1 1/2 hour drive. Green trees and water running some times during the year. We rented the Treehouse for 2 nights, very cozy and relaxing. The chicken happy hour was great, we met the other guests and the farm chickens! We hiked a trail on the property, strolled the orchard and swam in the pool, a bit chilly but felt good on a hot day. We ordered the meal prep, breakfast, lunch and dinner. The food was amazing, very flavorful! They worked with my gluten allergy with no problems! We will be planning another trip with the family. Heads up, If you plan to hike Aravaipa Canyon, make reservations well in advance of your stay at the farm. Enjoy!
