This downtown Phoenix boutique hotel is a stunner. It’s described as an art-filled, luxurious-yet-approachable hotel that’ll fill you with delight and wonder. Staying at The Found:RE is like staying in an art gallery, and the best part is that the pieces are created by local Phoenix artists! Plus, the location is perfect–this hotel is right by stadiums, convention venues, cultural epicenters, and more. You’ll never be bored!

The Saguaro

In our opinion, there’s no better way to get in the summer mood than by staying at The Saguaro Scottsdale. Everywhere you look is filled with vibrant pops of color, and we guarantee it’ll put a smile on your face! Enjoy hangin’ by the pool, visiting the nearby coffee shops and restaurants, visiting the spa, the gym, or even doing Paddleboard yoga at the Picante on Thursdays. The Saguaro also has all kinds of summer specials that are perfect for booking a staycation.

The Graduate Tempe

Boulders Resort & Spa

This resort is described as a ‘desert playground,’ which makes it perfect for a summer vacay! When it comes to accommodations, Boulders offers Casitas, Executive Suites, Villas, Haciendas, and the ‘Villa Retreat.’ So, whether you’re going with a small group or a big group of friends, this hotel has the perfect room for you!

Mountain Shadows

We recently had a team event at Mountain Shadows and fell in love! Located in the heart of Paradise Valley, this resort has breathtaking views. If you’re looking to get away and get some R&R, the resort’s pool is the perfect place. Or, if you’re feeling a little adventurous, check out their event calendar, golf course, and other outdoor activities!

Hotel Valley Ho

Hotel Valley Ho is not your typical chain hotel! This urban resort is hip, vibrant, and is located steps away from Scottsdale’s dining, shopping, and art galleries. Its historic, yet modern feel is really the best of both worlds!
