Booked our villa very last minute, staff was extremely friendly and punctual allowing us an early check-in. Villa had all we needed and more. Pool area was neatly maintained and was enjoyable for a day of sun. Thanks, Scottsdale IHG!

9.2/10 Wonderful! (1,001 reviews)

Overall it was a nice resort. The room was loud though. We got a room that backed a service road and the trucks would drive thru or go in reverse with a beeping sound. In the morning housekeeping was loud in the hallway. The grounds were neat and clean. The pools were nice but kind of misleading. I asked about pool hours and was told they are 24/7. While the pools are open the slides aren’t.

The room was clean, amazing view, comfortable bed and nice shower. Cleaning staff did a great job each day. All staff were friendly and helpful. Pools were awesome, food was amazing. Felt very comfortable and relaxed. For those who don’t mind walking, it is walking distance to shopping and ball fields. Highly recommend this resort.
