During your Phoenix vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Taliesin West
Frank Lloyd Wright fell in love with the Arizona desert and, in 1937, built Taliesin West as a winter camp that served as his home, office, and school. Today, the buildings of Taliesin West are the headquarters of the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation and School of Architecture.Tours explain the campus buildings and include a general introduction to Wright and his theories of architecture. Wright believed in using local materials in his designs, and this is much in evidence at Taliesin West, where local stone was used for building foundations. With its open-walled buildings and patio areas, Taliesin West also showcases Wright's ability to integrate indoor and outdoor spaces.Expanded Insight Tours ($16-$22), behind-the-scenes tours ($45), guided desert walks ($20), apprentice shelter tours ($30), and night hikes ($25) are also available at certain times of year. Call ahead for schedule information.In downtown Scottsdale, you'll find Wright Downtown, 7079 E. Fifth Ave. (tel. 480/990-7710), a shop that sells reproductions of Wright designs and also has lots of books about the architect.
Casa Grande Ruins National Monument
Located outside the town of Coolidge not far from Florence, this national monument preserves one of the most unusual Indian ruins in the state. In Spanish, Casa Grande means "Big House," and that's exactly what you'll find. In this instance, the big house is the ruin of an earth-walled structure built 650 years ago by the Hohokam people. It is speculated that the building was once some sort of astronomical observatory, but this is not known for certain. Whatever the original purpose of the building, today it provides a glimpse of a style of ancient architecture rarely seen. Instead of using adobe bricks or stones, the people who built this structure used layers of hard-packed soil, which have survived the ravages of the weather and still stand in silent testament to the Hohokam's long-ago architectural endeavors. The Hohokam began farming the valleys of the Gila and Salt rivers about 1,500 years ago, and eventually built an extensive network of irrigation canals for watering their fields. By the middle of the 15th century, the Hohokam had abandoned both their canals and their villages and disappeared without a trace.
Arizona Historical Society Museum in Papago Park
This museum, at the headquarters of the Arizona Historical Society, focuses its well-designed exhibits on the history of central Arizona. Temporary exhibits on the lives and works of the people who helped shape this region are always highlights of a visit. An interesting permanent exhibit features life-size statues of everyday people from Arizona's past (a Mexican miner, a Chinese laborer, and so on). Quotes relate their individual stories, while props reveal what items they might have traveled with during their days in the desert.
Hotel San Carlos
If you don't mind staying in downtown Phoenix with the convention crowds, you'll get good value at this historic hotel. Built in 1928 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the San Carlos provides that touch of elegance and charm missing from other downtown choices. Unfortunately, bedrooms are rather small by today's standards, and the decor needs updating. If you're up for a splurge, check out the suites, which are named for celebrities that stayed here in the hotel's heyday.
Cave Creek Tumbleweed Motel
Located in the heart of rowdy Cave Creek, the valley's wildest and most western community, this little motel is nothing fancy, but it still seems to stay packed for much of the year. Be sure to book early. Although the guest rooms have a bit of western character, the popularity of this place is due in large part to the fun atmosphere of surrounding saloons and cowboy steakhouses. Although it's at least a 30-minute drive from here to Phoenix, the desert is a whole lot closer here than it is to Phoenix and Scottsdale's budget motels.
Pointe Hilton Tapatio Cliffs Resort
If you love to lounge by the pool, then this resort is a great choice. The Falls, a 3-acre water playground, includes two lagoon pools, a 138-foot water slide, 40-foot cascades, a whirlpool tucked into an artificial grotto, and rental cabanas for that extra dash of luxury. If you're a hiker (as I am), you'll want to make this your first choice in the area. The trails of the North Mountain Recreation Area begin on the edge of the property, and from here you can hike for miles through the desert. The resort also has a golf course, though it is a short drive away. All rooms are spacious suites with Southwest-inspired furnishings; corner units are particularly bright. Situated on the shoulder of North Mountain, this resort has walkways and steep roads (get your heart and brakes checked); at the very top of the property is Different Pointe of View, a pricey restaurant with one of the finest views in the city. This resort is slightly more adult-oriented than the nearby Pointe Hilton Squaw Peak Resort, but is very similar.Facilities: 3 restaurants (Mediterranean, American, Mexican); 2 poolside cafes; 5 lounges; 7 pools; golf course; 2 tennis courts; fitness center (extra charge); small full-service spa; 8 Jacuzzis; sauna; steam room; bike rentals; seasonal children's programs; concierge; car-rental desk; free shuttle between Pointe Hilton properties; business center; room service; massage; babysitting; laundry service; dry cleaning.
