One of the top luxury resorts in Scottsdale! Staff gave impeccable service to help make my family’s holiday stay a success. Richard at the front desk was particularly helpful and we appreciate the extra mile he went for us to ensure our stay was enjoyable and memorable. Pool, food and amenities were top notch. Looking forward to staying here the next chance we get.

The rooms are very nice, unfortunately our room location was bad, likely one of the worst location in the complex. Had to take elevator to 3 floor and then take down stairs to access unit on the second floor, no direct access to 2nd floor units. Also the shops and restaurants are right across from our room and smoke and steak smell completely filled our room, as well as a trash truck came every morning before 6:30 AM to dump the dumpsters at the restaurant. Sink stopper did not work on sink, bathroom had faucet hose leaking inside cabinet. Housekeeping did not replenish coffee. Rooms are very nice just not the location we had.
