Resorts in Scottsdale, AZ

Get away to the desert for a few days of fun in the sun at one of our Scottsdale resorts. Take a break from the snow and rain of the cold and swap them out for the warm sunshine of Central Arizona. With 330 days of sunshine every year, there’s plenty of sun to soak up year round.

If you take your trip in February and March, you’re never far from an MLB Spring Training facility, as there are two parks in Scottsdale with two more in neighboring Mesa. Take some time for yourself to play some sports by hitting up any of the nearby golf courses. There are more than 200 golf courses in the Scottsdale area alone. Many of our top Scottsdale resorts have their own golf courses, so you don’t have to travel far to reach the first tee box.

Get out on the town to learn about the Old West at the Western Spirit: Scottsdale’s Museum of the West and the Scottsdale Historical Museum. Feel what it was like to walk down the streets of an old Western town with the vibes created by Old Town Scottsdale, which is a hot spot for small shops and local restaurants. Get the full experience by going horseback riding at one of the local ranches, where you can feel like the famous cowboys who settled the Valley of the Sun.

Spend your time enjoying nature with a hike in Pinnacle Peak Park, through the McDowell Sonoran Preserve, or up Camelback Mountain, which is named for its distinctive camel shape. If you’re willing to make the drive, Grand Canyon National Park is just three and a half hours north, with easy access to the Southern Rim. Tucson is less than two hours south, which has plenty of tourist offerings of its own.

For those who prefer spending time indoors and away from the heat, visit an aquarium, butterfly park, or the Penske Racing Museum. Shop to your heart’s content at Scottsdale Fashion Square, where you’ll find high-end shops that carry your favorite luxury brands. After you’ve spent a full day on the town, come back to your room at one of our resorts in Scottsdale and get a much-needed respite from the day’s activities.
