Rancho Sonora Inn & Rv Park

We stayed here roughly, 5 months ago… This review was a combination from both my Alex and I.
There were pros and cons to this experience. Certainly the pale is kind of a historic remnant and very quaint. It’s about 8 miles south of Florence, out in the well… desert. There isn’t anything else of note immediately around the place. The small group of individual rooms around a courtyard or the more pricey Casitas are your choices. We were in the Alamo room of the courtyard, which featured a painting of the Alamo in Texas under siege and a few Alamo related books on the shelves. The room and grounds are very attractively kept up and nice to wander a bit.
The room was very nicely decorated, though i found all the chairs uncomfortable to sit in even though they looked nice. The bed was the same. very stiff and uncomfortable to sleep on. but it looked nice. The biggest problem for us was the hot room. The ac was on low when entering but still even at full force only late at night did it get a bit more comfortable and that was only under the AC blower directly.
The bathroom was hot and humid as the AC air never made the corner back around the the bath area. Really probably needed a wind AC unit in the bathroom or a re think of the general AC unit. No granted this was Arizona summer and even the hostess was not interested in talking about the weather, and most of these reviews and probably most of their business is in winter.
That being said most people won’t care in the winter months about the poor AC which made sleeping difficult with the uncomfortable bed. Add in that the refrigerator did not work and the ice machine was broken as well as a non working soda machine and well… you get the picture wasn’t much of a way left to cool off. I’m sure the basic continental breakfast was fine for most people as well. i must say the breakfast area was very nicely decorated… oh and cool compared to the room.
No didn’t complain of this but felt very much so that the owners preferred not to be disturbed after six pm. so… we have in summer a very nicely appointed in general room and grounds. but very hot and stuffy room with a hard mattress, hot bathroom, no working fridge nor ice machine nor soda machine that worked.
We commend staying in this place in the winter months because it is much cooler.

I stayed here for a wedding a couple years ago. We rented out the whole place and it was awesome. I would definitely recommend it!

Very nice room… super clean and comfortable. Quiet. Reasonably priced.
I will stay there again if in this area.

If you want to get off the grid and really relax what a cool place. It offers options from nice rooms to casitas with multiple bedrooms/​bathrooms and a full kitchen. There is no restuaraunt on the property, but a nice pool, wifi, etc.

The most relaxing bed and breakfast in Southern Arizona. Linda, the owner, is wonderful. She really goes out of her way to make sure you have a comfortable stay. And her dogs are charming too. You get so much more than what you pay for. The breakfast is technically a continental breakfast, but it really leaves you satisfied — yogurt, toast, fruit, juice, coffee, cereal, oatmeal, all kinds of good stuff. The beds are comfortable and the rooms are spotless. My favorite feature is the pool area — a two person hammock, spa with a little waterfall, and a grill that guests can use for BBQs. Lovely place to get away for a night or two… and really feel like you took a vacation.

This is our home away from home!
If you ever come near this area, you will not regret staying at the Rancho Sonora.
It is a nice place to get together with a family and can accommodate a large group of people.
We love staying at their casita, a self standing house. Everything is super clean and tastefully decorated. We stayed twice at Casita-​Ilsa. The Ilsa has a full kitchen with a eat-​inn counter, TV room, a comfortable bed and large bath tub.
There are also affordable motel rooms which are very charming.
They also have jacuzzi and pool.
My father in-​law stays at RV park for winter. He loves the community.
I love going there to see him, thanks to the comfortable and welcoming environment they provide there.

An adorable surprise of an Inn in the middle of absolutely nowhere. I was doing a long-​distance bike ride through AZ and booked a room here only b/​c Florence seemed like a good stopping point before a full-​day ride to Tucson. From the moment I rode up to the entrance of the courtyard, I was astounded. The courtyard has a tranquil appeal, complete with a water fountain to soothe what ails you. The room I was in (Dolores) was delightfully decorated and outfitted w/​the comfiest queen sized bed, TV, fridge, hairdryer, French soaps and shampoo, and vintage bedside reads. And in the morning, there was breakfast, during which Linda, the owner, offered me extra food to pack for my ride to Tucson. What a treat to have found this place. This would be the perfect place to take a quiet long weekend escape from the hustle of life and read, write, breathe and just be still. I intend to come back soon.
