Homes with Casitas & Guest Houses in Bloomington, Utah
Bloomington sits on the southwest edge of St. George along the Virgin River and the Bloomington Country Club golf course, and it has a different feel from most of Washington County. Lots run larger, many homes back up to fairways or red-rock washes, and the neighborhoods date mostly from the 1980s through the 2000s, so detached casitas and guest houses are more common here than in newer, tightly platted subdivisions. With roughly 300 days of sun a year and winter highs that usually stay in the 50s, a separate guest suite works as living space nearly twelve months out of the year.
Buyers looking for homes with casitas and guest houses in Bloomington tend to fall into a few groups: snowbirds from Idaho, Washington and the Wasatch Front who want family to have their own space, retirees planning for a caregiver or adult child, and owners who want a home office or studio apart from the main house. Prices in Bloomington generally run higher than the St. George average, and a property with a finished detached suite often lands well above the median. Check whether the casita is permitted, whether it has its own kitchen, and how St. George city rules treat rentals, since short-term and long-term use can be restricted. Browse the active listings below to see which Bloomington properties with guest quarters are on the market right now.

Common questions
About homes with casitas & guest houses in Bloomington.
What's the difference between a casita and a guest house in Bloomington listings? ▾
Agents use the terms loosely here. A casita is usually attached to the main home or shares a courtyard wall, often with a private entrance and a bedroom/bath but no full kitchen. A guest house is typically detached — its own structure, sometimes over a garage — and more likely to have a kitchenette or full kitchen. Always check the MLS remarks for 'permitted ADU' versus 'guest quarters' since that affects rental and financing options.
Can I short-term rent a casita in Bloomington? ▾
It depends on the specific HOA and the city's nightly rental overlay. Most of Bloomington proper is zoned residential and does not allow nightly rentals under 30 days, while pockets near the Country Club and some newer Bloomington Hills sections have different rules. Long-term rentals (30+ days) are generally allowed, which fits the snowbird market well.
Do casitas in Bloomington usually have separate utilities? ▾
Rarely. Most are on the main home's meter for power, water, and gas, which simplifies construction but complicates renting them out as a true separate unit. A handful of newer custom builds in Bloomington Hills have separate sub-meters or even independent service — those tend to command a noticeable premium.
How does a casita affect the appraisal and loan? ▾
Appraisers in Washington County typically give value to a permitted, finished casita as additional living area or as an accessory dwelling, but they won't credit rental income unless it's a legal ADU with a certificate of occupancy. If you're using a conventional or VA loan, ask your lender how they'll treat the second unit before you go under contract.
Are casita homes more common in old Bloomington or Bloomington Hills? ▾
Both, but for different reasons. Original Bloomington (south of the river, built largely in the 1970s-80s) has bigger lots that accommodated detached guest houses and pool houses. Bloomington Hills and the Country Club sections lean toward attached casitas built into the main floor plan, often around a courtyard entry.
What should I look for when touring a home with a casita here? ▾
Check for a separate HVAC zone, the condition of the roof on the detached structure (flat roofs are common and need maintenance), whether the kitchen plumbing is permitted, and how private the entrance actually feels from the main house. Also ask the listing agent for the building permit history — unpermitted conversions are common in older Bloomington homes.
