Hotels & Resorts in Arizona

Phoenix
It is impossible to stay at the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa and not be stirred to wander the hallways and soak in its unique history. A landmark in the Phoenix area for more than seven decades, it remains to this day one of the finest resorts in the western United States. [Review]

JW Marriott Desert Ridge Resort & Spa is surrounded by the pristine Sonoran Desert, but is just 20 minutes north of Sky Harbor International Airport. The resort offers 950 guest rooms (80 suites) with mountain, golf course and lake views. Two 18-hole championship golf courses, Marriott's first Revive Spa, a 28,000-square-foot European-style spa, and four acres of turquoise swimming pools and shimmering waterways set the moode for a relaxing getaway. www.jwdesertridgeresort.com
