Sitting on 300 desert acres and laden with palm and cacti, The Phoenician, a Luxury Collection Resort is one of Scottsdale’s most desirable destinations. 

There’s an air of understated glamor at this self-assured resort: from the stylish ‘Mother-of-Pearl’ swimming pool lined with curtained cabanas to its famed afternoon tea and locally inspired wellness treatments at the 37,000-sq-ft spa.

There are plenty of activities to keep the whole family busy including an 18-hole Phil Smith-designed golf course, an athletics club and fitness center, live music performances, and wine tastings. 

Younger guests will love the dedicated Kid’s Zone, a swashbuckling pirate-themed aqua playground complete with a splash pad and a 197-ft waterslide.

The Phoenician boasts 645 rooms and suites and amongst its most desired is the Presidential Suite. Standing at a colossal 4,000 sq ft, it's one of the biggest suites in the state. 

The contemporary interior exudes a sense of calm with a muted color palette and mix of natural textures that pay homage to the resort’s desert locale. 

Upon entry, a large foyer leads to two modern and bright living spaces featuring floor-to-ceiling windows and glass doors with direct access to a sprawling full-length terrace with desert views. 

A separate dining room is served by a kitchenette and a butler’s pantry with a separate entrance. Both bedrooms offer access to the terrace through glass doors. 

The spacious master suite acts as its own apartment, with the king-sized bedroom leading to a separate living room and luxurious marble bathroom – both benefiting from their own separate terraces. The large second bedroom features two queen size beds, a marble ensuite and a large walk-in closet.
