The new property will span more than 20 acres with 215 guest accommodations to boot. Rooms will include spacious suites, oversized suites, detached casitas and bungalows. Large windows with deep overhangs will emphasize indoor-outdoor living and showcase the desert’s iconic sunsets. Guest rooms will be connected by shaded walkways and lush courtyard gardens to create the vibe of a village.
The grand lobby will be located above the hotel and greet guests with views overlooking Camelback Mountain. A water feature will cascade down from the lobby and through the property to a 16,000-square-foot world-class spa with indoor and outdoor treatment rooms. The spa will also boast a private pool with a circuit of various jetted treatments plus a whirlpool, Vichy shower, rainwalk and cabanas.
To cool off, guests can soak up the sun at a nearly 400-foot pool, one of the largest in North America. A specialty dining concept will feature seasonal produce from the resort’s anticipated herb garden and 400-tree citrus orchard.
