Tucson is a lively oasis in Arizona’s Sonoran Desert, surrounded by numerous mountain ranges. The city of Tucson is as scenic as it gets, seeing as it’s surrounded by beautiful nature preserves and mountainous terrain, including Saguaro National Park, Mount Lemmon, and Tucson Mountain Park – making it an excellent place for renters who love mountain biking, hiking, camping, and rock climbing.
The University of Arizona is just a few blocks from Downtown Tucson, and the more than 40,000 students enrolled at the university contribute to the city’s eclectic arts, entertainment, and nightlife scenes. Downtown Tucson has undergone major renovations since the early 2000s, blossoming into a thriving hub of activity for residents and visitors alike.
The Davis-Monthan Air Force Base lies near the center of the city, and is one of Tucson’s biggest employers for armed service personnel and civilians alike.

First move in Moving in wasn't to bad at all the whole process was super easy from looking at, starting to rent,and actually moving in. I'm on the second floor so some stuff wasnt that easy to get up but all depends on what you bring/buy for the place. It's good sized and everything works fine other than paint drip here and there. Was super clean when I first looked at the apartment and everything.

Move in was fantastic My wife and I recently moved in and it was a very easy process and Naomi was amazing. We had furniture that got there before we did and she went above and beyond to make sure it got into our apartment for us. Overall we had an amazing experience with the staff and move in.
Move in was great. Was informed on everything going on from Naomi, she even helped us bring in furniture into our home which arrived before my husband and I did.
Everyone in the office was extremely kind and helpfull. We hope to part of the community very soon. Very nice group of people working in the office to serve the needs of the community
Our new home Very helpful in the front office we love our new home
Great Place to Live! I moved in almost 2 weeks ago and the staff in the office were so helpful. There were a few things needing to be serviced upon move in and maintenance was quick ,communicative and took care of the issues quickly. The area is very family and pet friendly and my neighbors are very kind people. The rent amount for the size of the apartment in this area is unheard of and I would recommend anyone to this community if you are looking for a friendly and comfortable location to call home.
Enjoying my new place definitely a easy process thanks too everyone in the office for your help
The front office was very helpful and understanding. I was able to get everything taken care off and start moving in quickly.
I love my new apartment very quiet and peaceful, great service and the staff is quite helpful.
Office staff is great and helpful.
Apartment walls are thin and you can smell the cigarette smell from the neighbors
Property Manager at Cantera, Responded To This Review
It saddens us to hear you have not been happier with your home. Please come by the office when you can. Our team would love to speak with you about your concerns and discuss how we can help you have more of the comfortable living experience you deserve. Thank you.
Their online payment service is set up in a way that if you mess up (like type in a wrong digit), it says the payment processed when it really didn't. So you think you've paid rent, but you actually haven't and you're building up a bunch of late fees. And they don't tell you that the rent is late until you've built up the maximum amount of fees. Usually places will give you notices/warnings like right after rent is due, but this place doesn't and that doesn't sit right with me. They have a serious roach problem and the pest control service they offer doesn't solve it. The apartments smell weird, and they're humid. The fitness center they advertise just has two treadmills and an old weight machine. The appliances are super old and don't work well. Most of the staff are ok, but the management is super unfriendly. They refused to negotiate with the issue with their website not processing the rent.
Property Manager at Cantera, Responded To This Review
Our team is always happy to help our residents whenever they have any questions or concerns. It sincerely saddens us to hear you ran into these issues around your home and were left feeling unhappy with your experience. We will continue working hard to provide our valued residents with the comfortable, high-quality living experience they deserve, so thank you for your feedback and we hope you're doing well.
I have lived here for two months and it is great! The staff is very professional especially Mokihana. I have absolutely NO COMPLAINTS WHAT SO EVER. Fast service plus they got me in right away! 10 stars **********
Large 1 bedroom 1 bath apartments. Good for the price. Good location near a sprouts and other shopping areas. Assigned covered parking is always good in AZ. Pretty good but nothing special.
