Phoenix Resort Reviews
Arizona Biltmore Resort and Spa
This historic Phoenix resort is known for its unique Frank Lloyd Wright design and its colorful, celebrity-filled past. A lovely setting, luxurious atmosphere and diverse amenities make this a favorite Arizona resort.
Are you searching for an Arizona kid friendly vacation spot? Then Pointe South Mountain is the place for you. Kids will love the 6-acre water park with its 8-story waterslide and flowing river ride. There’s also golf, tennis and horseback riding. Even the spa has services for kids.
Sheraton Wild Horse Pass Resort
Reminiscent of a Las Vegas style resort, Wild Horse Pass creates a unique atmosphere by blending nature and Native American culture. Arizona’s largest casino, two golf courses, a Native American-inspired spa and lovely pools are all near a recreation of the Gila River - connecting the modern with the ancient.
Scottsdale Resorts
Located just north of Scottsdale, this sprawling Scottsdale resort is set amid magnificent, 12-million year old boulders. The Boulders is consistently ranked as one of the top U.S. resorts for its famous golf course, fine dining and Golden Door Spa. Find out if we agree.
Hyatt Regency Scottsdale Resort at Gainey Ranch Review
Hidden in the middle of Scottsdale, the Hyatt Regency combines good service, ten pools and nightly entertainment into a top Arizona resort. The Hyatt’s great blend of amenities and chic Spa Avania makes this one of our favorite spots.
This historic Arizona resort is known for its old Southwest style, flower- and cactus-filled gardens, great spa and friendly service. However, change is coming to the Inn with it’s $45 million, 10-month renovation which will include a new lodge, restaurants and room upgrades.
Sophisticated yet casual, the Kierland has plenty of amenities – pools, spa, golf, fine dining - in a compact space. Its emphasis on Arizona history and kid friendly and pet friendly programs make it a well-rounded and fun north Scottsdale resort.
Sedona Resort Reviews
The Amara is a small boutique property in the heart of Uptown Sedona, located on the banks of Oak Creek. A convenient location, lovely setting, “Zen meets Pottery Barn” atmosphere and stylish gourmet restaurant make it a sophisticated and romantic Sedona resort.
What makes Enchantment Resort so "enchanting" is its spectacular red rock surroundings. Set in Boynton Canyon and surrounded by wilderness, Enchantment blends luxury amenities and the fantastic Mii amo Spa in a casual setting. Rates are high but worth it for those looking for a secluded getaway near town.
Conveniently located at the eastern end of Sedona, the Hilton sits at the edge of a playground of red rocks, shopping, golf and New Age activities. The all-suite rooms with kitchenettes and easy access to all of Sedona’s attractions make it great for families and long term visitors.
Tucson Resort Reviews
Hacienda del Sol Guest Ranch Resort
You’ll get a glimpse of the old Southwest when you stay at this small, historic property nestled in the heart of the Santa Catalina foothills. Adobe buildings, a desert setting and Southwestern accents make Hacienda del Sol more traditional than modern.
Hilton Tucson El Conquistador Golf and Tennis Resort
You’ll want to make sure to use the bell service at this popular but maze-like Tucson resort. This family-oriented property is great for tennis and golf enthusiasts too with three golf courses and pro tennis facilities.
Starr Pass is the newest Tucson resort in 18 years. This huge resort and conference center complex has every amenity in an elegant Southwestern atmosphere. Tucked up against the Tucson Mountains, it’s a bit of a drive to get out there but the setting makes it worth the time.
Built literally into the base of the Santa Catalina Mountains, this luxurious, pet-friendly Arizona resort brings the desert right outside your door. Guests come from all over the world just to play on its famous golf courses.
The elegant Spanish Mission style La Paloma is a popular Arizona resort. Arizona vacationers enjoy its gourmet Southwestern restaurants owned by award-winning chef Janos Wilder and access to the private La Paloma Golf Course. Locals love its low summer rates and its pools.
Spread out but not built up, this Tucson resort is open, peaceful and has lovely city, mountain and desert views. We liked Westward Look's easy access in and out of town, good mix of amenities, friendly service and parking right outside our room.
