JW Marriot Starr Pass Resort and Spa – Tucson

Forget everything you think you know about Arizona casinos. If you've had the experiences we've had, they probably don't interest you. Between the standard long drive it takes to reach them, tchotchke-filled gift shops, smoky rooms, unimpressive fare and afterthought hotel rooms tacked on for good measure, these properties can leave a lot to be desired when it comes to creating an upscale guest experience. Well, prepare yourselves for an entirely new, ultra-luxe resort casino many have tried to accomplish in the Grand Canyon state to no avail- The brand-new Talking Stick Resort.

Romantic, intimate and friendly almost beyond belief, Turtle Island Resort is a world entirely beyond time and obligations. For adventurous island wanderers looking for a private paradise, Turtle Island is it. The resort makes up the entire island and is yours to explore. Turtle Island is a couples’ only resort except for a few weeks each year when families are invited.
