Earth house holiday rentals in La Joya

We had a great time at Linda’s place with our two kids. Her house is a lovely little museum where you feel cosy and at home. Very nice backyard where you can enjoy the sun and the peaceful neighborhood.

This place was incredible, beautifully decorated, extremely comfortable, and spotlessly clean. The views from the front sitting area were absolutely stunning, with a perfect line of sight to Study Butte and the Chisos Mountains. I loved the eco-conscious design of the home, it felt peaceful, intentional, and in harmony with the Terlingua landscape. The host was wonderful, extremely friendly and welcoming. She even took the time to teach the kids a bit about what it’s like to live out here, from conserving rainwater to reading the clouds. It added a thoughtful, personal touch that made our stay even more memorable. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a scenic, meaningful escape with comfort and character.

Our home in the desert! Lovely house, beautifully decorated, spacious, well appointed. Has everything you need for a comfortable and relaxing stay. We particularly enjoyed the sunrise, the sunset, the silence and gazing at the stars at night. The Wifi is not very strong but it works. The host is responsive and affable. Highly recommended!

This was a great place to stay! Franks was responsive and you're within walking distance to all the downtown stuff. Overall, it was great. If you're a light sleeper like me, then do note that you're close to the train tracks and the trains run all night. You will hear them. But I came here to get a feel for living in Tucson and I'm glad I stayed at this little house.

Great loft style condo, excellent location, walkable to everything. Nice big pool! On site pizza place was decent too. Would stay again.

Two very quiet rooms each with a bathroom. Very safe. Great location, a short walk to the beach. Wish I stayed longer. Will next time.

We had a great stay at this house! The backyard was peaceful and quiet and we enjoyed our time in the yard. There is a goat and horse who live next door and it was fun to stroll by and say hello to them! The house is very well maintained, comfortable, and a good layout. Would definitely return to enjoy this unique little town.

Oh my gosh. I loved the creativity and authenticity of the old best B&B. It is clear that this has been a passion project for Curtis. He has spent many many many hours creating these handmade Adobe without power tools. I loved walking through the cabin to get to the old West campus. It was like a portal going from conventional Tucson to 1800s Tucson. I liked having a separate cabin to myself. I really didn’t wanna leave. It’s so rustic and clever. It really reminded me of my Peace corps service in West Africa in the sub-Saharan desert. Water and electricity are limited and it’s a super rustic, authentic travel experience that everybody should try. Make sure you get trained on the compostable toilets before you arrive. I might not recommend this for the luxury traveler. But they could probably use the experience! :-)

It was a very nice spot, great views of the mountains. Very private; private patio. Every room was squeaky clean and kitchen had everything we needed. Diane was very nice and easy to communicate with. I will gladly recommend it and probably will use it for myself and guests coming into the area to visit.

I feel more at home here than at my own house. This property is a sanctuary. Surrounded by nature, unique art everywhere you look, balcony overlooking the entire town, the comfiest bedding, walkable to anywhere you need to go in Marfa -- I could really go on and on. But words don't even do this place justice - it's truly something that must be experienced. My family and I booked both of the houses on Robert's property (the hill house and the canteen) and being able to enjoy the entirety of the grounds and different hang out areas was incredible. Although located off the main road, we still felt secluded and like we had plenty of privacy! 10/10 would recommend to anyone needing a peaceful getaway. My family is in love with this property. I don't think we will stay anywhere else in Marfa. I can't wait to go back.

Samuel’s place was great for our weekend in Mesilla/Las Cruces. We have two dogs and prefer to travel with them, and his place was perfect! Not only a great yard, but also a large beautiful (and typically empty) park RIGHT next to the home. The house is all you need and temperature was always comfortable. Instructions were clear once we got there. The only note I would say is that the home is shorter because of its traditional style, so if you are on the taller side, I would move through the house carefully. Last thing we loved — there were very quiet and peaceful goats next door, and my dog treated it like TV. It was the most entertaining thing we could’ve done for the them. Thanks again! We will definitely stay here next time.

Monk and Simonne truly hosted me with care, and the courtyard of exquisite desert flora and fauna kept me captivated during quiet morning and evening reflections. This is the perfect spot for someone who wants a walkable neighborhood on a peaceful street, short drives to downtown and the U of A, and quiet space for reflection. The colors of the adobe interior are luscious. The kitchen was set up for someone who, like me, ACTUALLY intends to cook most of their meals. What a gem.

Another great stay in Marfa! Earth House was cozy and comfy, close to everything and had a great record collection. 😉 The team at Trans Pecos Realty was top notch, proactive and super friendly. They responded to any issue or request promptly and kindly. It’s so refreshing to be treated like a neighbor when visiting another city. It really makes all the difference.

We had a great time staying at Esther's place. It was a great location and walkable to coffee shops and restaurants, and we loved sitting on the nice, shaded backyard patio. My dog liked the park just across the street as well. Would definitely stay here again!

This was our second visit to Casa Cheruy and once again it was a magical experience. Demion is hands down the best host we have every stayed with. His responsiveness, attention to detail and thoughtfulness is truly impressive. Staying at Casa Cheruy is akin to living in a modernized American Southwest adobe museum. From the artwork to the furniture the home is steeped in beautiful historical glamour. We loved that the home's location was close to hiking, the famed Tucson biking/walking loop, groceries, shopping and restaurants. This is the perfect home base for visiting Tucson.

We LOVED our time at Gigi's place, which is truly special. If you don't like impersonal, cookie-cutter accommodations when you travel, look no further. Gigi's place is decorated in an eccentric but classy style, creating a cheerful, homey, welcoming feel. Even though it's central to everything in Tucson, you feel like you've stepped into an oasis once you walk through the door. We visited in early March, so while my daughter braved the pool, I stayed put on the amazingly comfortable loungers and soaked up the spring sunshine. I loved the sound of the wind chimes and the presence of two friendly cats. The kitchen is well-stocked with everything you need to cook, and you can choose to dine at the gorgeous formal table, the little table next to the kitchen, or outside on the back patio. One of the two bedrooms also has an adorable sitting room that opens to the private patio. We were sad to leave but will be back! I would never stay anywhere else in Tucson.

We greatly enjoyed our stay in Todos Santos! The property with 3 separate casitas was very cute and comfortable and we could tell they were putting in a lot of work to make it even better! Maddy was very responsive throughout our trip and they were able to address the few small issues we had promptly. The location is great, although it is not in the town center, there are a few great food spots and the beach within walking distance, and it’s much quieter than in the center. Would visit again!

We loved our stay at Zephyr's place. We could feel the history and love that was put into this private little oasis. It would not be for everyone, because it is very close to outdoor living, but that is the sort of thing we love! The plants and birds on the property were a special treat. The outdoor bathroom and shower were lovely, and the outdoor kitchen was a lot of fun. The neighbor dogs were pretty noisy at night, so bring your earplugs if you are sensitive.

beautiful and peaceful place

This was my first time staying at an Air bnb. I must say the standard was set very high. The vibe of the place just shimmers with authenticy. It felt like traveling through time. You can really get a sense for the passion and love the hosts have for life. Absolutely recommend!

Beautiful view, very quiet and friendly

Wonderful rustic Airbnb close to a lot of outdoor activities! Basic amenities but gets the job done. Cute decor and responsive host. Will return!

We spent just a few days at Nicole’s place and wished we could have moved in - it was a great layout for two friends, with the most comfortable beds, simple and beautiful furnishings everywhere, a perfectly stocked kitchen, an awesome backyard, easy off-street parking, and even on some unseasonably hot April days the whole home stayed cool and comfy. Already trying to figure out when we can come back. I also loved Nicole’s recommendations - so many of my favorites plus some cool new local spots to explore (the nearby bakery - sooo good!).

Gloria’s desert hideaway provided the most peaceful and tranquil stay imaginable. It is located right next to the West Saguaro National Park with amazing views and tons of wildlife to enjoy. The home itself is super comfortable with beautifully appointed furnishings and a well stocked kitchen. The dark skies are perfect for stargazing.
