Villa Blanca Mariposa is peaceful & beautiful. Loved the Southwest vintage decor and tranquil outdoor space. Personalized touches throughout. Short walk to UofA campus. Thank you Erica! ##### Shannon M.

Villa Blanca was the perfect place for our stay. Our trip was bitter sweet moving my youngest daughter from Califonria to Tucson for school. The accommodations were incredible, comfortable, relaxing. Erica is the friendliest host ever and has furnished the home with everything we needed and more - including a bottle of wine - delicious after a 16 hour drive. No more hotels when we come visit. Thank you, Erica! ##### Denise B. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [HYATT house Scottsdale/Old Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Phoenix-Hotels-HYATT-House-ScottsdaleOld-Town.h200678.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Alpbach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alpbach-Hotels.d4712.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hilton Phoenix Tapatio Cliffs Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Phoenix-Hotels-Pointe-Hilton-Tapatio-Cliffs-Resort.h2736.Hotel-Information) > > [The Tavern Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sedona-Hotels-The-Tavern-Hotel.h4638869.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Canyon Railway Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Grand-Canyon-Hotels-Grand-Canyon-Railway-Hotel.h1213311.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Paralimni](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paralimni-Hotels.d180436.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hostels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/aa/Hostels) > > [Hotels near Jan Breydel Stadium](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jan-Breydel-Stadium-Hotels.0-l6071055-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Ritz-Carlton, Dove Mountain](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tucson-Hotels-The-Ritz-Carlton.h2595547.Hotel-Information) > > [voco The Tuxon by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tucson-Hotels-The-Tuxon-Hotel.h206165.Hotel-Information) > > [Sky Rock Sedona, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sedona-Hotels-Sky-Rock-Inn-Of-Sedona.h12934.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn & Suites Phoenix/Scottsdale on Shea Boulevard](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Phoenix-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Suites-Scottsdale-On-Shea-Blvd.h22329.Hotel-Information) > > [Bespoke Inn Scottsdale](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Phoenix-Hotels-Bespoke-Inn-Scottsdale.h6152687.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Tennis Academy Mallorca](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tennis-Academy-Mallorca-Hotels.0-l553248621562488311-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels near Malmö Central Station](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Malmo-Central-Station-Hotels.d6045425.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hance Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Phoenix-Hotels-Sonder-Hance-Park.h37170591.Hotel-Information) > > [Starr Pass Golf Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tucson-Hotels-Starr-Pass-Golf-Suites.h846040.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus Sundial](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Phoenix-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Sundial.h64172.Hotel-Information) > > [travelodgeuk Hotels in Sidcup](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sidcup-Hotels-Travelodge-UK.0-0-d179510--bTravelodgeUK.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Paisley (GLA) to Ballasalla (IOM)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/gla/iom/glasgow-to-isle-of-man) ### Cars ### Activities ### Packages > [Agros Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Agros.d6340096.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General > [Visit Cayman Islands](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cayman-Islands.dx33) ---
