Scottsdale

Scottsdale’s Sonoran Desert landscape and brilliant sunsets are restorative. It’s easy to explore top hotels, spas, shopping, and great golf, while the surrounding desert offers all-level hiking and adventures. The city is a top escape for winter and spring breaks, when the blooming orange blossom trees scent the air. Locals call it a “dry heat” in the summer, when the best hotels significantly drop their rates and chill their pools.
