So far we've had multiple opportunities to visit of the years and are never, ever disappointed with this beautiful town, which appears more like a village. We've done day trips and stayed weekends - the weekend is best 'cause it allows you to soak in more of the community, the hospitality, the conviviality and the atmosphere away from the hustle and bustle of the big city or urban sprawl - back to nature you might say. And our favorite place to visit is La Entrada de Tubac (Tubac's Entrance), rightfully so. Starting with the best coffee in town at Tubac Deli & Coffee, or an extra fine lunch or dinner at Elvira's, the quaint shopping of terrific and unique cooking doodads at Tumacookery, fabulous fine arts at Cobalt Fine Arts, the distinctiveness of Mas y Mas, and so many other establishments here. One can spend a day here and not see the rest of town. That's why a weekend getaway is our opt for most of the time. Great place to visit, beautiful place to enjoy.

Located in the back middle section of the downtown shops, you can't miss this spot because of all of the pottery and outdoor decor. My mom and I love this spot as they bring their pottery and ceramics from Mexico. It's obviously going to be priced up but it saves us from crossing the border and knowing we're getting handmade items. One of the staples of this place is their giant ceramic tiled skulls that they have outside. It's definitely picture worthy while here. While primarily this shop is decor and home/garden furnishing they do have some cute little gifts inside. I got one of my favorite skulls rings here many years ago and it's definitely a must stop shop when in Tubac. Just be aware they are closed Mondays and Tuesdays.

As far as I know, this is the first chain store to enter the Tubac shopping village. However, I was…read moreextremely happy to see it because the area could really use some more useful shopping options besides all the art galleries and pottery/metalwork stores. The fashions here were dubbed "resort chic" by the sales woman but most of the items seemed very low key and easy to wear. Comfy cotton tanks and tunics, pool cover up style dresses, boho maxi dresses and peasant skirts. Just the type of thing you want for summer in southern Arizona. They also had some really cute sandals and accessories. I am sure that they will get a lot of traffic from tourists staying at the nearby resorts as well as locals. I didn't purchase anything this time, since it was late and my hubby was getting impatient. But I did notice that they had a plus sized section as well as a discount rack so I am sure I will be back.

Once a month during college, every single trip…read moreto visit during a holiday, or during a trip home (once I moved away for work), we "had to" go to Gary's (Old Presidio Traders). "Had to." My grandmother would spend more than an hour, pouring over every single bracelet in the old pawn case. Every single one. She'd try on more than I care to think about. Sometimes, we'd have a dozen different cuffs on the counter, waiting for her to choose the one (or two) that she wanted. And of course, my mother and I got sucked into this game as well. While we stood around, trying to get out of the way of the tourists, my mother, grandmother, and I talked. "Oh, that'll be nice once it is shined up." "How's school?" "What about that one over there!" Vicki, Gary, and the others would chime in along the way. Over the course of more than 30 years of regular visits, we got to know Gary and the entire staff. They were always kind, patient, and funny. We learned how Gary would buy bags of old pawn, by weight, sight unseen. We learned about kids, grandkids, divorces, retirements, and that the folks who worked there were kind and funny people. We also had a darn good time. Between the 3 of us desert rats, we gathered an enormous collection of Native American (Mostly Navajo) cuffs, necklaces, earrings, and rings. ENORMOUS. Today, my grandmother is more than 100 years old and in declining health. When I look at her collection now, I see workmanship, quality, good prices, and the priceless: memories. OPT is an overwhelming treat. Take your time. Ask questions. Go for a walk, or go for lunch--then go back and get that piece you were eyeing. You won't regret it. (I attached a small sample.)

The clothing and jewelry are absolutely breathtaking. So much of what's in my closet comes from Cocosh, and every single piece gets compliments. Their collection is fun and unique, and I can only find it at Cocosh. But what really sets Cocosh apart is the people. The owners and employees are incredibly kind, warm, and genuinely eager to help. They go so far above and beyond. They have stayed open after hours just for me, and have even closed the store so I could try on clothes in the evening without any rush. That kind of personal, heartfelt service is so rare -- it makes every visit feel special. Cocosh Boutique doesn't just have gorgeous things....it has a soul.
