General Information

Experience the plants, animals, and history of the High Sonoran Desert surrounding Mi Gatita Bed and Breakfast. This pink stucco hacienda is set on land carved out of the historic Navarro Ranch, which still runs cattle close by, and overlooks Tucson and the five mountain ranges which surround it.

We're a small, relaxed, country inn, and we delight in offering small touches to make yours a pampered, relaxed visit: plush bathrobes, fresh fruit and fine candies in your room, a tray of coffee left outside your door as a pleasant wake-up, sumptuous yet healthy Southwestern cuisine, assistance planning your day's sightseeing.

Recommended in Fodor's "The Southwest's Best B&B's." Spotlighted by Phoenix Magazine's "Best Places to Get Away From It All."
