Our History
A Historic Sonoran Treasure in Tucson
In 1929, John and Helen Murphey embarked on a journey, birthing a desert retreat named Hacienda del Sol. Inspired by Moorish architecture, they infused personal flair into its design. Initially, a haven for society's elite daughters, its halls echoed with names like Vanderbilt, Pillsbury, Maxwell, Campbell, and Westinghouse. Through the years, it has endured renovations and bred revelations. And today, the legacy lives on.
