The Worlds Best Spas

Marriott Desert Ridge Resort & Spa

START

The fires are lit. The water is flowing. The earth is flowering. The sky is limitless. Where all of the elements meet. The JW Marriott Desert Ridge Resort & Spa may be Arizona's largest resort, but it's also big on luxury. With 950 guestrooms (including 81 suites), this alluring resort is set on 316 acres in the Sonoran Desert where Phoenix meets Scottsdale and features sweeping views of the McDowell Mountains. The grand resort is the centerpiece of the Valley of the Sun's burgeoning northeastern corner.

Inspired by the grandeur of the Grand Canyon, Desert Ridge redefines the resort experience. Two 18-hole championship golf courses, Marriott's first Revive Spa, a 28,000 sq. ft. European-style spa and fitness center and four acres of turquoise swimming pools and shimmering waterways set the mood for a relaxing getaway. Panoramic views of crimson-hued mountains, fiery Arizona sunsets and the picturesque, cactus-studded Sonoran Desert only add to the resort's serene setting.

The elements of nature - fire, water, earth and sky - have been woven into the resort's architectural design to let every guest experience the pleasures of the distinctive surroundings. The soothing Sonoran Desert setting serves as the ideal backdrop for the resort's Revive Spa. The spa lobby is a two-story rotunda with a central water feature that flows directly underneath the open skylight two floors above, capturing the grand volume of the space. Water has the power to strengthen, to heal, to relax. Water is the inspiration for our stunning, two-story spa oasis devoted to your health and well-being.
