Favorite Luxury Resorts in Scottsdale #1 Andaz Scottsdale

 

 

Andaz Scottsdale Resort & Bungalows is an experience in luxurious cultural immersion, a new kind of resort that celebrates all things local with a mix of posh sophistication and a decidedly convivial spirit. Since the earliest recorded history of the area until today, Arizona has been a place where art and nature co-exist without boundaries. The design, color, and heart of Andaz reflect an environment open to possibilities — a refreshing mix of old and new, classic style and innovative amenities.

 

 

The architecture and design aesthetic of desert modernism evokes the masters of the mid-century era. There is a spectacular view of Camelback Mountain and the lush landscaping that flows throughout the 23-acre property. It’s this absence of boundaries that embodies the Andaz experience — inclusive, relaxed, stylish, creative.

 

 

Clusters of low-slung bungalows house 185 guest rooms and suites, each with its own front terrace, many with Mangaris wood-accented private patios, modern exterior furniture, and outdoor showers. Colorfully cushioned banco seating and teak tables are exactly right for enjoying morning coffee or an evening cocktail al fresco.

Weft & Warp Art Bar + Kitchen contains a glass-enclosed exhibition kitchen, which is an exciting invitation to a culinary arts experience that recalls friendly gatherings where everyone inevitably ends up hanging out in the kitchen. The open feel (and more gorgeous views of the pool and Camelback Mountain) features a kitchen table and high, countertop tables surrounding a plancha where Executive Chef Nate Larsen offers small and sharable plates that reflect local influences and ingredients in completely new ways. The serving pieces in the restaurant continue the artisanal theme, as many are handmade by Cattle Track ceramic artist Mary Van Dusen.

 

 

For the ultimate in customized spa treatments, Palo Verde Spa & Apothecary is a space inspired by the artistic culture of the Sonoran Desert that seeks to reuse and repurpose wherever possible. Every service and product takes its cue from native plants and centuries of holistic wisdom, harnessing the natural, healing powers of the earth’s most sacred resources.
