A very nice casita and location. A bit of a mix up in the beginning but the owner got it squared away. We enjoyed.

Loved this place! Larry greeted us when we got there and was very friendly and personable. The property is beautifully maintained. It was great to come back from the crowded parks to this very serene and quiet location. Thanks for the great stay!

Larry raises the bar. The Casita was wonderful. Everything we needed was provided. Comfy bed. Amazing views. Catio next door with sweet cats to talk to. Jackrabbits, grey fox, mourning doves, hummingbirds, red rocks, hike out the back door. We loved our home away from home even better than home ❤️ Thank you Larry, truly stellar home in every way. Thank you !!

It was tight but comfy. Coyotes were a hoot.

The Casita is small but just fine for a couple. The view out the back is a spectacular panoramic red cliff face. The location is a few miles outside Kanab on Hwy 89 but only a few minutes from gas, fast food, and the visitor center. Bryce, Zion, Lake Powell, North Rim and Grand Staicase are all less than 2 hours away. We had a great time.

We loved our stay at the Casita!! There was a folder full of ideas for things to help fill our days! Everything was just as we had hoped it would be! If we head this way again we will definitely get in touch with Larry to see what he might have available to fit our needs.

The Casita was exceptional. Very Clean, comfortable bed, quiet setting, nice to have a washer/dryer, all that I wanted and expected. I would highly recommend.

The Casita was very nice. It was clean, well-equipped to fit all our needs, lots of nice towels, dishes, wine glasses - when we couldn't locate a wine opener, we called Larry [the owner] and he was right over! Comfortable bed although it was small for us [we have a king-size at home]. Loved the towel warmer! Appreciated the access to a washer/dryer including all the soap, dryer sheets, etc. Overall, it is a small space but very efficient. The only suggestion we would make is to put a hook or two in the bathroom to hang clothes.

Knab is near some of the most special places we’ve seen. The casita was located well to access the hiking, parks and other natural wonders.

Great location, super-clean, very nice owner. We would come back again.

The Casita is a wonderful place and the views spectacular!! Larry is a wonderful host and helped us unload our groceries, plus gave us tips on local hikes! We really enjoyed our stay here!! The cats are an excellent addition and we even visited Best Friends!!!

The Casita was the perfect place to stay with easy access to the national parks. Larry was an excellent host and provided us with invaluable information for making our national park visits the best possible. Recommend this vacation rental to anyone.

Well cared for property.

This was the perfect place for us to stay to explore all the hiking around. Easy drives to Zion and Bryce Canyon. Lots of other state parks around. There was great hiking right out the back door too! Larry was awesome, came right over when we had questions. He was great to just talk to and gave lots of advice about places to go during our stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay for our honeymoon! We would definitely recommend this place to anyone!

Kitchen and bath well supplied. Great washer and dryer with all laundry supplies. Beautiful backyard. Great location for national parks and Glen Canyon area.

The casita was a nice quiet place with easy access to town. The streets had very little traffic which made it safe for dog walking. Having a full kitchen and washer and dryer were really great for our twelve day stay. I wasn't a fan of the noisy air conditioner but needed it because of the 100 plus temperatures. We have two suggestions: one, a bedside table with a couple of shelves or drawers and two, a hook on back of the bathroom door. Overall we were very pleased with the casita and Larry was a nice host.

The Casita at Purradise was built for concise comfort. It had every amenity that we needed for our stay. The Casita was the ultimate home base for our hiking experience in the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. The location was perfect for exploring. Also, the Casita has a picturesque and private backyard complete with trails. We enjoyed watching the jackrabbits in the early morning and the magnificent Utah sky in the late night. Larry, the owner, thought out every detail for a perfect vacation rental. We appreciated being able to share his home for our amazing Utah vacation.

Stayed at The Casita at Purradise for a week for our 20th anniversary. It was like home. The kitchen is the best stocked kitchen that we have stayed in. It is perfect for a couple, may be tight for 4 adults. We saw jack rabbits, roadrunners and even a coyote from the house. Great location for many hikes we did during the week. Larry was great to work with and made sure we had everything we needed. Would definitely go back.

We love the Casita!!! It could not have been more perfect and we really didn’t want to leave! It was so clean!! The kitchen had absolutely everything plus more than we have at home. The bed was wonderful to sleep in after each day of hiking. The bathroom had a great shower plus a towel warmer! We’ve never been spoiled like that before! The corner fireplace was great to add a little warmth when needed plus it added the perfect ambiance to this beautiful place. And speaking of beautiful, how special was it to go out on the patio each night and settle into super comfortable furniture and enjoy a glass of wine. I can just go on forever! We’re looking at gorgeous mountains, enjoying the hummingbirds flying around us and a bit later, we heard coyote pups howling in the distance. This place is fantastic! It’s very private and inviting. Larry is just super and very accommodating. He has a great notebook he’s put together to familiarize his guests with all the places to hike and good places to eat. He’s a genuine lover of animals and Tadpole was our very favorite. You have to stay at the Casita if you’re visiting Kanab! It’s a fantastic place to make many wonderful memories!

Very clean, quiet and secluded hide-a-way near Kanab UT. A couple of not-so-perfect items reduced the stars from 5 to 4 ... first, I could not find way to lock the door but this ended up not important since there were only two people at the home (me and one other female in the next door suite). I felt very safe and secure without the door locked. Then, I called the owner but only received voice-mail option and he did not return my call. The next morning I was able to speak with him and we resolved the key issue. TV settings were also inconsistent during the 3 days I was there so I gave up trying to watch TV. I could not locate the setting for WIFI either, apparently the name of the connection changed. Watching the jack rabbit outside the kitchen window, however, was fun :-) Last issue, I was not able to control the inside temperature and the second day was hot, so I opened the windows. Since this is a desert area, the temperature dropped to a comfortable level at night but was too hot during the day. My recommendation to owner is to meet with the temporary resident at the beginning of their stay and go over all of these instructions in addition to leaving the "Instructions" manual which was to me not very helpful. Overall, my stay was pleasant but lacked that "personal" touch that would have rated this stay a 5 Stars.

Owner Response

Patricia, I apologize for the issues you experienced. We try our best to meet every guest upon arrival and explain everything about the space, access to the Wifi, TV, door security, etc. We definitely dropped the ball in your case and I do apologize. I am not sure what happened with the Wifi, but it should not have changed during your stay so we will look into that. Here in the desert as we transition through the Spring, we are challenged with when to transition from our radiant floor heating to cooling. If we do this too soon and have a freeze, we can damage the systems since they are evaporative. However, this year it seems we made the transition too late and for that I apologize. We strive for the best experiences for our guests so I apologize to you for dropping the ball here. Larry

My wife and I stayed at the "Casita" for five nights and it was perfect for two. The Casita was clean, and nicely decorated, along with all necessary amenities. The location was centrally located with respect to Grand Staircase Escalante, Zion, Lake Powell and several other locations for hiking or other recreational activities. I would definitely stay there again and recommend to others. Thanks for a great stay!

Thank you Larry for sharing your beautiful home! I enjoyed my stay in the Casita, it had everything I needed and more. I loved the location backing up to the beautiful cliffs. Vladimir and Jarvis, my BF sleepover guests enjoyed their hikes right out the front door.

Purrfect little casita with everything you could ever need. The neighbors are very quiet too🐈. Very conveniently located for visiting Best Friends and surrounding Parks.

My husband and I traveled to explore the national parks and wow, what a great location. Our Casita was very private and was central to everything we wanted to do. Larry was great! He gave us a warm welcome and provided us with many useful travel tips for our stay. The Casita was clean, and had all of the comforts of home. We can't wait to go back, and have recommended this property to all of our friends who are planning a similar trip. Thank you for a great vacation, we really enjoyed our stay.

Immaculate!! Casita is well maintained and provides all the essentials. A comfortable bed at the end of a busy day is a must and you won't be disappointed. And having a washer/dryer is fantastic, especially after volunteering at Best Friends! I can't say enough about the owner, Larry. When the key lock box wouldn't open, I had to call him. Without hesitation he said he be there in a few minutes even though he was at a function. Larry was quick to attend to a couple of very minor issues and immediately did what was needed. He could not have been more accommodating. I look forward to visiting Kanab again and hope that I'll be able to stay The Casita at Purradise!

We stayed here for a week during our cross country trek to see the Southwest. The casita was just right for the two of us and a great place to come home to after visiting Bryce, Zion and the North Rim. Kanab had their annual Cowboy Round up while we were there... Real cowboys, vintage stage coaches in the parade and actual cowboys on horseback guiding a herd of longhorns right down main street to start the festivities. This is a Private setting with accurate pictures. Scenery right out the back door was beautiful while relaxing on the patio. Owner on site, but not intrusive. Washer dryer a plus.

What a great place to stay. The property was immaculate! The owner, Larry, was very nice and helpful. Located in Kanab, Utah, it is in the center of all kinds of activities. It was a very peaceful and unique place to stay! Highly recommended! Rob and Sue K

A lovely place. Self-contained, quiet, relaxed and away from the city, but close enough to get supplies (five mins or so). The casita was clean, well-equipped, tidy and fitted-out to a high standard. The back yard stretches for miles, and was great for kids. Larry, the owner, was friendly and there if we needed anything. Parking is fine and easy. Finding the place was no problem at all. The internet was fine, and fast enough. Washing facilities etc. were all easy enough to use. It really is a great place to stay. We were a family of four and there was plenty of space. The bbq is easy to use and the patio area is lovely. Highly recommended.

30 years ago already, my husband and I experienced Zion National Park for the first time. We camped, hiked, and splurged for dinner at the lodge before going back to our tiny tent. A picture of me in The Narrows has been one of my prized possessions ever since. Now, wanting to give that same experience of a lifetime for our two nearly grown daughters, our family of four stayed at Larry's Casita for four nights and I can honestly say, mission accomplished. The Casita was lovely, clean, and simple yet perfectly detailed. Larry is a gracious and thoughtful host and the level of care and commitment to this place is evident in every corner of his property. It is the cleanest VRBO we've ever stayed in, inside and out. We greatly enjoyed morning coffee on the patio, listening to the coyote puppies in the early morning hours, and watching the antics of his kitty tribe at any moment. We did not even know of Best Friends Sanctuary before staying here, but ended up taking a tour (initially out of respect for Larry) and found ourselves fascinated by the whole place - conceptually, organizationally, and visually - very impressive. Kenab in general was just right for us - great restaurants when we wanted them (Rocking V was awesome) and decent grocery stores when we didn't, thanks to the excellent appointed kitchen at the Casita. We could definitely see coming back for a week and doing a deeper dive into the town itself and surrounding area aside from Zion, Escalante, and the Grand Canyon. We hope Kenab does NOT turn into another Springdale or St. George and appreciate being able to visit such an authentic, functioning town so close to so many "main attractions". We went to Zion early (left at 6:30 am) and we went to Zion late (left at 4:00 pm) - both times were perfectly magical. Did the Narrows in the morning, and Angel's Landing in the late afternoon - neither were obnoxiously crowded - even in August. Even on the full tour buses, we enjoyed knowing that everyone there had made the decision to spend the time and money to see something natural and magnificent - how great is that? The Coral Pink Sand Dunes were an unexpected pleasure - just sayin'. Thank you, Larry and kitties, for a new and equally lovely set of memories and we hope to see you again in WAY less than 30 years!

Owner Response

Wow! I am truly humbled by your kind, gracious and generous words. I adored having your family here and thrilled to share this special place with you. I am so glad that your family had the chance to rekindle memories and make new ones and hope your delightful girls will cherish that and one day return with their own families. This is why I like hosting so much and I'm especially happy that you discovered Best Friends because of your stay here. I wish you the best and send you my sincere gratitude! Larry

Very neat and organized casita. The location was excellent. We could make day trips to Bryce, Zion , Coral Pink Sand Dunes and of course Grand Staircase Escalante was in the backyard. Visited Best Friends Animal Society too. Thank you for everything.

My wife I and our two pets were sooo comfortable in Larrys little home. We visited Zion , Bryce and Friends Sanctuary. Highly recommended

We found the Casita very comfortable and clean, with an extremely well-equipped kitchen. The location is extraordinary, with a stunning view of red rocks cliffs and blooming cactus right out the back door. We loved the hiking trail that started right in the back yard, as well. Larry was an outstanding host, very accommodating and responsive. The nearby town of Kanab is sweet with plenty of good restaurants. Being near to Zion, the Grand Canyon, and Best Friends made this an ideal location.

Larry has thought of everything to make his visitors vacation stay peaceful, restful and in a beautiful location. The casita is spotless and has everything you'll need. The view from the Casita is magnificent. If you're planning a trip to the Kanab area I can highly recommend staying at the Casita. We would definitely stay at Larry's Casita again.

My wife and I stayed 9 nights at the casita. We hiked locally and visited Zion, Bryce and the Grand Canyon. I mountain biked in Hurricane and Red Canyon. Kanab is a nice small town with many conveniences. Larry was a perfect host. He provided valuable information about restaurants and parks. The Casita was spotless and well supplied. We would highly recommend these accommodations to anyone wanting a central location with privacy. If we are fortunate enough to return to the area we will definitely stay here again.

We came to Kenab because of it's central location to so many National Parks. We fell in love with Kenab and it's history and spending time at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary. Larry is a fantastic Host and just a really great person. His furry children kept us entertained with their visits when we sat on the patio, enjoyed the view. Returning to Kenab is a must for us and when we do go back, we hope to stay at the Casita at Purradise once again

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Larry's beautiful Casita. It's in a great location situated up against gorgeous red cliffs. The view is amazing. And Larry is an excellent host giving us great info on everything from hikes in the area to places to eat. The Casita is a cool, comfortable and convenient place to stay during your time in the Kanab area.

The Casita is a super clean, quiet, well-equipped, well-managed vacation home in a great southern Utah location. We stayed at for one week. It was our "base of operations" for day-trips to attractions nearby, such as Zion and Bryce National Parks, Staircase-Escalante and Pipe Springs National Monuments, Glen Canyon Dam and Navajo Bridge, etc. By the way, at the Navajo Bridge we were able to view a mother Condor caring for her egg in a rock wall next to the bridge! We highly recommend this property.

Larry was very friendly and his home and location was perfect. The unit is very well cared for and clean. Great Communication !

Larry provides a home away from home with all the amenities. The Casita had everything one would need for an extended stay, including personal touches like the heated towel warmer, gas fireplace, and water & food bowls waiting for our dog to name a few. It is a beautiful location with a picturesque view right out the door. Our dog Misha, as well as us, enjoyed watching the jackrabbit that was there every morning while we had our coffee. You will not want to stay anywhere else while visiting Best Friends, Zion, Bryce, and the Grand Canyon. We will definitely book here again when we are back in the area.

I just left from my 2nd annual stay in the Casita. It was amazing! The views and location are purrfect and Larry is a gracious host. The Casita was spotless and full of all of the gadgets and amenities that I needed for an extended stay. I made good use of the new shoe dryer; it was helpful after a long, wet hike in the snow. I am already planning my 2018 trip!

A view you can't get in town. Marvelous hike straight out the door up to fabulous petroglyphs. Very quiet and private. Owner attentive without being intrusive.

We stayed at the Castita for three nights while exploring the Grand Canyon, Zion, and Bryce and it was perfect. The gas fireplace kept us warm along with the in-floor heating. I'm going to be investing in a heated towel rack after experiencing hot towels out of the shower first thing in the morning. When we return to Kanab to explore Zion, our favorite park, we'll be booking the Castita again for sure.

Great little place only 5 minutes from all the restaurants and shops in Kanab! We drove up to this well-maintained property to our own little parking spot. Larry met us himself and gave us a tour of the casita. It was extremely clean and had great features like the fireplace, heated floors, heated towel rack and modern appliances. He really thought of everything. It was very well stocked - full kitchen with plates, cooking utensils, cleaning supplies, etc. and even shampoo, conditioner and body wash in the shower. We had camped for a couple days before reaching the casita, so it was nice to have a warm place to relax and even do our laundry (soap provided!). We didn't get to use the outdoor fire pit but the set up outside was spectacular too. Thank you Larry for your exceptional hospitality!

We had booked Larry's Casita to use as a launchpad to Zion, North Rim, Lake Powell BUT once we arrived in Kanab... We realized what an amazing location it was in itself and all there was to do right here! From the moment we arrived, Larry was more than helpful! He walked us into the Casita area on his property and explained the casita from AC to heat and then asked about our plans in the area. He then brought out the notebook and went through the best tour group to groceries to Best Friends to restaurants! Even where to buy the best cookies at the North Rim! The casita was such a retreat! Walk out the back door to beautiful red rock butte, a hike on Larry's property, stargazing at night and even a fire pit with wood in it! Inside it is just as the photos show a nice sized living/kitchen area with all the cooking utensils you need to even cook a main meal. TV and wifi were excellent which is not always the case in our Southern Utah travels so far. If you are headed to this beautiful area... Lucky you... And do not hesitate to reserve the Casita at Purradise! You won't regret it! PS We did see a huge jack rabbit each morning out our back door to add to the fun!

This is our second year staying at the Casita at Purradise We spent 5 nights this year. We were in Kanab to volunteer at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary (you MUST take a tour even if you are not there to volunteer. The place is amazing!) so the fact that Larry works there played a part in our choice. In fact, we scheduled our vacation around the availability of the Casita.There were 3 of us and the Casita was plenty big. We took the bedroom with the comfortable double bed and our daughter slept on the sofa bed, usually with our sleepover dog for the night. Larry does allow sleepover dogs from Best Friends at no additional charge. From the fully stocked kitchen, to the hair dryer, shampoo, conditioner and soap in the shower and a heated towel rack for nice warm towels, the Casita has everything you need for a wonderful vacation. It is well equipped, spotless, and private. The surrounding scenery is gorgeous and the area is quiet and peaceful. The stars are amazing at night. Larry is a wonderful host. He is there if you need him but he does not intrude. He even worried about us when we arrived at Best Friends late one day.The info book has menus from area restaurants but we ate mostly fast food in since we had sleepover dogs who were not approved for patio dining at the restaurants in town. The kitchen is fully equipped if you want to cook but after a day at Dogtown we were too tired. Also, the price is right. The Casita was cheaper than most of the motels in town that allow sleepover dogs and there was no traffic noise. We will definitely stay with him again next year and recommend him to anyone staying in this area. He also has a new cabin next door that is larger but it was booked for all of October.

We had such a wonderful time at the casita. I forgot my laptop and had to write a paper for school, and Larry set me up an area to use his personal laptop so I could get my work done. The view of the mountains was exquisite and we loved the little cat sanctuary.

The property is landscaped so beautifully. The house is designed to compliment the area from the exterior in its architecture and color palette as well as the interior. The best compliment I can bestow is if I could live in this area I would want a place like this one.

We look forward to sending our friends and family there with no doubts that they will be blessed by the opportunity. Thank you for three wonderful nights an beautiful mornings. The surroundings were fantastic.

The owner was very friendly and immediately replaced a lost key. The Casita is clean and well equipped. The location is very convenient for Lake Powell, Bryce, Zion and the Wave. Space is limited. Max. Persons: 2.

The Purradise casita was purrfect. I was impressed with the quality of everything, such as the hardwood floors, granite countertops. The casita has a washer and dryer, it was nice to be able to was my clothes. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The television gets direct tv so there was lots of channels to pick from. I can tell that Larry puts a lot of care and thought into making the casita comfortable for his guests. He seems to cover every detail, such as having a first aid kit available, a flashlight, spices and condiments for cooking, shampoo and body wash available, a binder full of information about the Kanab, etc. The property has beautiful views, a nice outdoor seating area with a grill and fireplace. My favorite part was the amazing catios, I loved seeing the kitties. If I travel to Kanab again I will definitely stay here.

My favorite part was the amazing catios, I loved seeing the kitties. If I travel to Kanab again I will definitely stay here.

I love staying at Larry's property and the Casita was perfect for me this trip. It had all I needed to be comfortable and it was great to be able to bring dogs for sleepovers from Best Friends. The dogs and I enjoyed walking on the path from the property onto BLM land loving the views. I wasn't feeling 100% well while there and I was SO comfortable getting extra rest in the comfortable bed and the evap cooler kept me perfectly comfortable. Wendy Wardlow

The Casita at Purradise was the best spot for our trip to the West! This was our first stay in Kanab, but I hope not the last! Larry was beyond in hospitality....he provided for all our needs. He quickly helped us with personal time to point out local places of interest, as opposed to leaving brochures or advertising papers. The accommodations were excellent. The décor, essentials for bathroom, bedroom, kitchen and living room were all focused to make our stay most comfortable. You even can hike directly from the patio area, or just sit and listen to the quiet. Plenty of wildlife to view in area. Its location is wonderful to use as a base to travel around. (Zion, Lake Powell etc.) There is a marvelous Best Friends Animal Sanctuary to visit. There are some adorable cats living next door. No matter what your interest this home and friendly town surely can provide or guide you to find it! If your into history be sure to visit the Heritage Museum at local library building, and walk down memory lane....Plenty of eats, good service, and welcome smiles. Now what else could you want in life?

The Casita is perfect! We were at the Casita for 6 nights. Those were the best 6 night's sleep that we both have had in years! The views from the patio are fabulous and visiting with Larry's furry children was one of my favorite highlights of the day. The location could not be more ideally located for day trips to the Grand Canyon, Zion & Bryce Canyon National Parks. A visit to Best Friends Animal Sanctuary is a must (We actually spent 2 afternoons there. Little Hollywood and the Heritage House in Kanab, Dinner is Sego's is not to be missed, nor is lunch at the Thunderbird in Mt Carmel or a stop at Forschers German Bakery in Orderville for pastries & sandwiches to take for picnics in the parks. And the tour of Pipe Springs National Monument is a fascinating history lesson. Larry is such a gracious host. He went above and beyond and the house is very clean and comfortable. Thank you for being a huge part of making our 30th Honeymoon the best trip yet!

My husband & I stayed at the Casita at Purradise in the middle of May 2016. Larry was an excellent host & the Casita was wonderful. Very nice finishes and the touches of home. Kanab was a very good central location for us to visit Mt. Zion, Bryce Canyon, Glen Canyon, & the Northern Rim of the Grand Canyon. Perfect!!

I recently returned from a 5 night stay at this lovely casita. It was well appointed, very clean, comfortable and private. The casita had everything I could possibly need, and then some. I especially appreciated the washer and dryer (stocked with plenty of detergent, fabric softener, etc.) so I didn't have to return home with dirty clothes. Larry was a great host and I will definitely stay here again in the future. Thanks Larry!

Really enjoyed my stay at Casita. As a base of operation, it is well positioned for easy access to Zion, Grand Staircase-Escalante and the Paria Canyon-Vermilion Cliffs areas. After a long day of hiking, it was nice being able to return to the comfortable accommodations and surroundings of the Casita. Larry is the perfect host and enjoys sharing his knowledge of the area and strives to make sure all of your needs are met. Kitchen is well stocked and property is clean and well maintained. Looking forward to coming back for another visit soon.

The Casita was a great location for us to visit Zion and Bryce and also take road trips over the mountains and see Utah's terrific scenery. The accommodations were clean, the kitchen and bathroom well supplied. Great places to walk our dog. The views were wonderful and we loved the quiet.

My sister and I really enjoyed staying here. It's a short drive from Kanab, convenient to Zion, Bryce, Best Friends and North Rim. Beautiful views right outside the windows! Comfy little place, washer/dryer is a major plus. We would definitely stay there again!

I stayed for 5 weeks and the Casita was perfect for an extended vacation! Larry was tentative and willing to provide whatever I needed for my extended stay. The Casita is a short and beautiful drive to Best Friends and all other attractions in the area. When I returned after a long day of volunteering or exploring, it was nice to sit with a glass of wine with the great views right outside my door. Larry took great care to stock the Casita with anything you could possibly need for any length of stay! I have already made plans to return next year and can't wait! Thank you Larry!!

The place looks brand new. The kitchen has full fridge and stove with oven microwave and toasteroven. Some spices teas coffee food storage. Laundry soap provided. Bath soasps and schampoos are there too. The host (Larry) came in and welcomed us at arrival and gave us some area trip tips. I cannot say enough good things about the place. Locsted in the back of a neighborhood it has privacy it's quiet, but yet close to things to do. Highly revommend !!! ( We were 2 adults 2 teens we brought an air matteess but the couch turns in to a bed so two smaller children could have room on it. )

This place was great. Entirely peaceful, located in a beautiful area amidst the gorgeous red rock formations. The kitchen is stocked with all the cooking supplies you could need as well as some condiments and tea. The view outside the window on snowy days was beautiful. Great heater/fireplace. Larry was very helpful and accessible. This place is definitely a gem located about 10 minutes from the quaint town of Kanab and about 15 min from Best Friends Animal Sanctuary.

This place is so nice! So many extras, you'll feel like you're back at home: WIFI, washer/dryer, full kitchen, cozy fireplace, comfy bed, heated floors, etc. If I were to build my own custom home for two, it would look just like this casita. Larry is very friendly and helpful. But gives you complete privacy if that's what you're looking for. Great location if you're into hiking. There are several suggested trails and books in the casita. We spent our days hiking with this as our base. I'd come back in a minute and miss the beautiful Kanab night sky. So pretty!

A completely joyful stay! Quiet, endless bright stars in the night sky, stunning red rock cliffs all around, lots of trails that start literally right out the door and lead into the lovely desert, sparkling clean accommodations with everything a person could want/need, tasteful accouterments, cute fireplace (and effective!), wonderfully helpful and accommodating host (Larry)... 5-star experience!!!

We had a wonderful visit at Casita Purradise. It was the perfect size for the two of us and had everything we needed. Larry was a great host, providing recommendations for places to go and things to see. Really enjoyed our last night there, grilling on the patio and enjoying the beautiful view from the sitting area and the peace and quiet.

Owner Response

Thank you for you kind review. You are the nicest couple and a joy to have here.

The Casita was perfect for my husband, daughter and I while volunteering at Best Friends. All our sleepover dogs loved it too and thought the sleeper sofa was quite comfy. Larry was available to explain things and answer questions but did not intrude. He has provided everything you could want-shampoo, conditioner and soap for the shower, hairdryer, lots of tissues, dish-washing soap and detergent for the washer, plenty of hangers for clothes, coffee, tea, and condiments, and a flashlight by the door for late night dog walks. It is so quiet and peaceful here. I loved relaxing on the patio and watching the cats play in the catios after a long day of volunteering. The view is spectacular. The stars were so bright at night without competing lights from town. We look forward to returning next year. I would highly recommend Larry and his wonderful Casita for your stay in Kanab.

Owner Response

Thank you guys sooo much! You're wonderful to have and I am so happy that so many dog got to go on sleepovers! Hopefully, next year in the Cabin, if its possible to take a pair you can do that!

The perfect location for visiting the national parks in Utah.

Have nothing but positive things to say about our stay. Very quiet and private location but minutes from town. Was nice to have the cats greet us as we came and went.(Made me miss my fur babies a little less) The house was very clean and had all the basic needs for a week away from home. Will stay here again when we go back to do more hiking at Zion, Bryce, and Grand Canyon!

The Casita at Purradise is small but very well appointed and comfortable, just a few miles out of town in a very quiet location with beautiful views. Larry's a warm and gracious host with lots of good advice for local hiking etc. The only surprise was I thought the description of "sleeper sofa" meant it would be a fold-out sofa, but it wasn't (or if it was, we were too incompetent to figure out how to open it!). However it was plenty long enough to sleep on. Kitchen is extremely well equipped. It's about a 20-30 minute drive from Best Friends Animal Sanctuary if you're planning to visit or volunteer there. I would definitely stay here again on a future visit.

Owner Response

Thank you for staying with us and your kind review. I am so sorry about the sleeper sofa. While I have pictures of it in both positions in the information book, I will also add some instructions on using it. By pulling the back all the way forward you can either set it up as a bed or return it to the couch position.

Staying at the Casita at Purradise felt as if I was staying at home. Larry thought of everything one could possibly need and ensured it was available. The rental is only a couple miles outside of town, just a quick jaunt to the grocery store or gas station. There are walking/running trails right out the door. The scenery is absolutely gorgeous. Just a wonderful place!

Beautiful, clean and quiet, AND with a stunning view right out the casita's back window. I stayed a few days while volunteering at Best Friends with my kids, and Larry made sure to let us know he was always available if I needed anything at all. His personal attention to me and my children's well-being was greatly appreciated 1800 miles from home!

Larry's place is perfect! We are seasoned VRBO renters and Larry has one of the best properties out there. His attention to detail gets an A+++++. Like others have written, the views are amazing, his property is pristine and it's centrally located to all the best that UT and AZ has to offer. Providing the big stuff is easy but Larry goes the extra mile and provides the little things that will make your stay so comfortable. All the things you need in a kitchen including foil and saran wrap and storage containers. Need to do laundry? He provides the soap and fabric softener. He even provides shampoo and body wash and ample facial and toilet tissue. I really felt like I was at home! There wasn't a single thing that I was missing.

We really enjoyed staying at The Casita for 8 days. It was a comfortable safe place for our little dog to spend time while we were exploring and hiking Zion, areas around Hwy 89 and Bryce. We appreciated the kitchen stocked with cooking pots and dishes. It meant we ate what we wanted and weren't at the mercy of restaurants. It it a cozy little home away from home. Larry was great giving us tips on places to visit and hike. Good value for what you get. We would come again.

The Casita was a wonderful home-away-from home for my two kitties and I. The cats were especially fond of the gas fireplace and the heated floors. I was a fan of the kitchen area, which came stocked with all the cooking tools I needed--including a corkscrew! I also loved the on-site washer and dryer, and the roomy closet in the bedroom. We'll be back for sure!

The Casita was a nice, secluded place to stay for our trip hiking in a couple of Utah's National Parks. It was a nice distance from Zion and the Buckskin Gulch (30 miles), but a little too far from Bryce (70 miles). The Casita itself was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Larry is a great host--very helpful getting guests settled in and a great source of information about the area. It's a huge improvement over a hotel and a comparable price--stay here!

I spent 10 days at the Casita at Purradise - absolutely great! Quiet and private, 7 minutes from Kanab, 20 minutes from Best Friends Animal Society (where I volunteered), hiking right out the casita door (my dogs loved it!) and very comfortable as well as reasonably priced. Larry was kind and informative, but not intrusive. I heard nothing but good things about him from people I know at Best Friends. Couldn't ask for more in a place to stay -- I definitely will return to Larry's Casita at Purradise!

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at The Casita, and highly recommend it to couples and singles (it's a small one bedroom -- perfect for two people and a pet). The location was an easy drive into town and Best Friends Animal Sanctuary (the reason for our visit), while mornings and evenings at the Casita were secluded, quiet and relaxing. The views from the patio are stunning -- love all that red rock. The kitchen had everything we needed, and Larry was very kind and helpful. We even got to bring back Bruno, the sweetest pit bull ever born, from Best Friends for a sleepover. He loved The Casita, too. I can't wait to return to Kenab, in part because it would mean a return to Larry's Casita!

Owner Response

Thank you for staying with us and more importantly, volunteering with Best Friends. I am sure Bruno had a great time! Please come back and see us again!

My time at the Casita was magical. It had everything I desired... and so much more. Meticulously clean full kitchen (with high-end cookware and dinnerware), washer/dryer, cute living room with gas fireplace and satellite flat screen TV, comfy bed, beautiful patio set-up with upscale furniture, stunning fire pit (flames come shooting out of gorgeous blue rocks)... and did I mention how peaceful and quiet it was??? The stars came out nearly every night since there's no "light pollution." Larry, the owner, is the kindest, most conscientious and accommodating person and cares so much about the people who stay at his Casita. Absolutely marvelous experience!!! Thank you, Larry... :-)

Meticulously clean full kitchen (with high-end cookware and dinnerware), washer/dryer, cute living room with gas fireplace and satellite flat screen TV, comfy bed, beautiful patio set-up with upscale furniture, stunning fire pit (flames come shooting out of gorgeous blue rocks)... and did I mention how peaceful and quiet it was??? The stars came out nearly every night since there's no "light pollution." Larry, the owner, is the kindest, most conscientious and accommodating person and cares so much about the people who stay at his Casita. Absolutely marvelous experience!!! Thank you, Larry... :-)

My wife & I stayed here for 4 nights in the beginning of November. This is a separate area off the rear of the owners house - so it is very private! It has beautiful views out the back towards the red mountains. Place is equipped with everything you need ... from a fireplace, to a towel rack warmer, to a wine opener. You just need to show up. Larry, the owner, was gracious enough to take my wife and I on a hike behind the house, up the mountain, to see Anasazi sites & petroglyphs on his day off. Highly recommend this place!!

I do travel a lot and I always rent from vacation owners after I read all the reviews first. That's why I am an honest believer in genuine reviews. I just came back from this piece of heaven with my lovely furry companion and friend Maya.She loved this place as much as me. Amazing vacation spot for nature and animal lovers. Beautiful and clean casita provided with love and care and all the necessesities. The hot rack towel is a nice touch. Wonderful , kind and caring host, ready to help if in need. Amazing Red cliffs views from the patio, you can just hike out the door, exploring the surroundings, finding Anazasi pottery or pertoglyphs, or you can go on nearby hikes. The Milky Way rising over the Casita and a nice warm firepit on the patio is a nice end to your day. Very safe to walk at twilight and take stunning pictures of the sunsets descending over the quite city of Kanab .Very close driving distance to Best Friends Sanctuary , Mt. Carmel and Zion. If you want tranquility, privacy and a safe, cozy ,quite place then this casita is your Purrfect Purradise.Me and my furry companion will miss it a lot! Much love to my favorite cats Tadpole and Jack.. I loved socializing with them each morning...Thank you so much The Casita at Purradise for having us...I shall recommend this place to all my loving friends... we shall be back soon!

The Casita was the perfect place! As previous reviewers have stated, star gazing, privacy, kitchen, laundry, etc. The owner was helpful and makes you feel at home.

We had an exceptionally nice stay at the Casita at Purradise. The Casita is very nice and most accommodating. The owners were especially nice folks too and that really was the icing on the cake. We highly recommend the Casida to anyone who may be interested. It is central to everything that we wanted to do and more!!! We would surely do a repeat visit at any time. We sincerely appreciate the opportunity to have stayed there. It made our trip the best. Thanks!!! Meg & Tony

Purradise is an excellent adjective to describe this little casita. Situated in the most beautiful area of Kanab where the cliffs in all directions are outstanding.it is small but has everything one would need a comfortable bed, free wifi ,a full kitchen and the seating outside to relax.Larry has beautiful areas for his cats and a I was able to go over and talk to them! Larry was very helpful with any questions and knowledgable about the area. Just lovely.

The Casita at Purradise was a purrfect fit for us during our recent trip to Best Friends Animal Sanctuary where we spent a week volunteering. Larry was a gracious host and the casita was a good value in a great location. The view of the vermillion cliffs from the patio was awesome and the propane fire pit added a nice touch of atmosphere in the evening. The casita had EVERYTHING we needed and it was great for overnight sleepovers with kitties from the Sanctuary. We will definitely consider staying here again on our next trip to Kanab.

Thank you for your kind words, staying with us and most of all, volunteering with Best Friends and helping the cats! I look forward to seeing you next year!

We had a great stay at the Casita! We usually do hotels or a travel trailer so this was a little different experience for us. I was so pleased with the decision. It felt like we were staying with a close friend even though we had never met the owner before. There where a few hiccups but everything was taken care of right away. On our last day we were suprised with a gift card for ice cream for any inconvence we may have experienced. Perfect base camp for lots of adventure!

The Casita was perfect for us. It was centrally located to Zion, Bryce, and Grand Canyon for our daily excursions to hiking. At the end of the day, we could relax and watch the sun set on the red cliffs of the back yard. The kitchen was fine for two people and we cooked most meals in. The owner was very helpful in suggestions and in any problems we encountered. He even loaned a power cord I had forgotten. I highly recommend this location.

My friend and I stayed here for 10 days in May. The unit is well-appointed and a great value. Having a kitchen allowed us to save $$ on food and the washer/dryer came in very handy. The casita's view is BLM land and provides nice hiking or star gazing opportunities. It is a bit outside of Kanab and about a 30 min drive to Best Friends (with construction). I would absolutely stay here again.

we arrived at the casita for a 10 day stay to a warm welcome from Larry, and the perfect home away from home. the accommodations were just what we needed and the heated towel rack was a lovely bonus on those cool utah evenings! :) on our next round of volunteering at best friends we'll be back for sure!

Owner Response

Thank you for your feedback, staying with us and most of all, volunteering with Best Friends! We hope you'll return in the future and choose to stay with us again!

I had a great time at this house, and will never forget my stay there. It is small, and I can't imagine fitting three adults in there comfortably (you will get in each others' space and possibly on their nerves!) but for a couple, or one or two people plus kids, this is perfect. By stocking up on groceries and cooking in, I think I saved enough money on eating out to pay for the rental! Larry is kind and knowledgeable and happy to give you tips and share his experience/expertise if you ask. He keeps the rental immaculately clean, and I know this without a doubt because I was able to stay there with someone EXTREMELY allergic to cats without any reactions (he has several cats in his own home, and rents to people who are adopting from Best Friends, there have definitely been cats coming through :)) I can't stress enough what a wonderful host Larry is, and he's got a very special place in a wonderful location. It's so relaxing and beautiful, and do yourself a favor and use his outdoor fire once before you go - it's quite the experience! This is a hour away or less to Bryce and Zion, and the drive is pleasant and goes by quick. Thanks Larry. Hope our paths cross again someday.

This review is of the booking process and communication with the owner, but not of the casita itself, since we had to cancel our trip to Kanab and our intended stay at the Casita at Purradise. From the initial inquiry, reservation and payment of deposit, to cancellation and refund of deposit, the process was rapid, uncomplicated and essentially flawless. Larry's responses were immediate and he was always anxious to accommodate - an ideal host. Thank you, Larry. We certainly hope to visit in the future.

Owner Response

We are sorry you weren't able to visit and I'm happy we were able to handle your transaction as you needed.

Staying at the Casita at Purradise was better than I could have imagined. The owner was very nice and helpful getting us situated upon our arrival. Afterwards, the entire stay at the Casita was in privacy. With access to a fire pit just outside our door, a great set up of the Casita and beautiful weather it all made for an amazing stay and a memorable honeymoon. The Casita was comfortable and just outside of the town of Kanab. It is also conveniently placed near several outdoor attractions. Within one to two hours you can find yourself in one of several National Parks, like Zion, Bryce Canyon and the Grand Canyon. There are plenty of things to do in the area and coming back to the Casita after a day outdoors was very relaxing. The owner was very personable and made our stay comfortable and easy, even giving ideas on things to do in the area. Southern Utah is a beautiful area; one week was not nearly enough to explore!We appreciate the hospitality we were given and look forward to visiting again in the future!

We were here to relax and just enjoy the area! What a treat the Casita was! Thank you Larry, for the best place for our vacation. It was so clean and beautiful. We so enjoyed just looking out the window and seeing the beautiful red cliffs behind, and hiking right out the back yard into the paths there, and we were so lucky to see a herd of Doe's walk right past the window, what an awesome treat. We loved the privacy we found there. It was so nice to have a kitchen to make our own romantic meals. Wish we could have stayed longer, for we still have lots to do in the area. Larry is a great host, Thank you!!!

The Casita was very clean and well layed out. Excellent location, close to the major state and federal parks. The only reason I did not give 5 stars is my travelling companion who slept on the fold out couch said it was very uncomfortable.

Owner Response

Thank you for staying with us and the helpful feedback. We will look into options to increase the sleeping comfort on the convertible sofa and I apologize that your travel companion was not comfortable.

The Casita was a private and peaceful escape. The property is in a beautiful location and is convenient for day trips to parks and natural wonders. Larry was welcoming and helpful - a great host. I recommend visiting Best Friends Animal Sanctuary - it makes a great day trip if you volunteer with the animals. Zion National Park was spectacular and only an hour's drive from the Casita passing through beautiful scenery on the way. We enjoyed dinner at The Rocking V restaurant in Kanab. Breakfast at Nedra's Too was good.

What a lovely property. Absolutely spotless and new. And the view!!!! I was pressed for time but had a lovely run each morning with my dogs just by using the subdivision roads. The casita feels very private and the property itself is set on several acres and feels remote while being a couple minutes to town. We would love to come back in warmer weather when we could stay and just sit on the back patio and soak in the view in the evening. It is cozy but has every amenity you could ever need. So happy with this choice.

My husband I stayed at the casita for 6 nights with our dog. It was a wonderful place to base out of for our week of hiking in the Kanab area. The casita was clean, comfortable, very quiet and private. For us, backing up to BLM land was a huge plus as we were able to walk our dog every day right out the door. In fact one of our favorite hikes that week was a hike Larry took us on to some petroglyphs. I would highly recommend this place and we plan to return when we are in the Kanab area in the future.

A vacation to SW Utah, including our stay at the Casita at Purradise, was the perfect way for my husband and I to start the new year! We loved the casita! It was comfortable, warm, neat, and clean, with attention to every detail in construction as well as furnishings. The casita is very private, peaceful and quiet, nestled into the natural surroundings of SW Utah, and convenient to the many natural wonders in the area, including hiking out the back door onto BLM land and the coral cliffs. Staying at the casita at Purradise was part of an awesome first-time experiencing the beauty of SW Utah. Thank you, Larry!

We had a great time at the casita! It was clean and comfy, and it was a great joy to wake up to such breathtaking scenery out our back windows each morning!! Larry was an excellent host, and even stayed on the phone with me all the way until I got to his home after taking a turn down the wrong road in the dark! I will be recommending his casita to anyone I hear of planning a trip out that way.

After leaving a week of heaven on earth on our houseboat on Lake Powell we stayed at the Casita 2 glorious nights so we could visit Best Friends Animal Sanctuary on our way home. We didn't expect heaven on earth to continue! But we had just that as we had beautiful views and gorgeous hiking right out our door! The Casita is fabulous and the hosts have thought of everything to make the stay perfect! And to top it off they are animal lovers and allowed our canine crew to stay as well! Thank you! We hope to be back!

If you have just a slight consideration of visiting this area, stop what your doing right now and stay here. The hosts are wonderful and informative and the place is very peaceful and comfortable. There are countless things to do here including visiting the many national parks, Best Friends (pet) sanctuary,hiking etc. Our stay was for only 3 days and if it were 33 we would still tell you it wasn't enough. We will be back. It just won't be soon enough for us.
