Enjoy an authentic, adventurous and relaxing ranching experience in the magnificent solitude of
the Sonoran Desert, approximately one hour south of Tucson. The extensive property borders the
Buenos Aires National Wildlife refuge, where one can watch deer and antelope still roaming in
herds. 

Each building is made of hand-formed adobe (mud) bricks. The Hacienda houses a massive dining
room and four salons with fireplaces for guest relaxation. The adobe walls of the Hacienda are
more than two feet thick, providing a natural cooling protection from the summer heat and
warmth for the late night winter chill. This building is open for guest use twenty-four hours
a day, and guests are welcome to light a fire, sip a glass of wine or just sit and relax.

Known as the Old Adobe, the Cantina building is reputed to be the oldest building in the state
of Arizona. It has been occupied since the early 1700s. It was built as a mission outpost in
what was then New Spain to provide traveling Jesuit priests with supplies. The building is now
used for guest socializing.

Hotel amenities include the Mexican-style bar, fine antiques and international art, sitting
salons, pool and hot tub, gourmet Southwestern cuisine, and health club with full spa
treatments. Rancho De La Osa offers two scheduled horse rides per day, except on Sundays and
holidays. Rates quoted include all meals during your stay. Not included in the rates are
alcohol, espresso, soda and any other beverage not served as part of a regular meal. 

Each of the 19 guest rooms is unique. All rooms are adobe-style with Mexican antiques,
handcrafted pillows and bedspreads, private baths, porches, and separate entries. Some rooms
have a wood-burning fireplace. All rooms are ground level and open to mountain views. There
are no TVs, no radios, and few clocks at the property.
