During your Phoenix vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art
Scottsdale may be obsessed with art featuring lonesome cowboys and solemn Indians, but this boldly designed museum makes it clear that patrons of contemporary art are also welcome here. Cutting-edge art, from the abstract to the absurd, fills the galleries, with exhibits rotating every few months. In addition to the main building, there are several galleries in the adjacent Scottsdale Center for the Arts, which also has a pair of Dale Chihuly art-glass installations. The museum shop is full of beautiful items, most of which will fit in your suitcase.7374 E. Second St., Scottsdale. tel. 480/994-ARTS. www.smoca.org. Admission $7 adults, $5 students, free for children 15 and under; free on Thurs. Tues-Wed and Fri-Sat 10am-5pm; Thurs 10am-8pm; Sun noon-5pm. Bus: 41, 50, or 72. Also accessible via Scottsdale Trolley shuttle bus.
Phoenix Museum of History
Located adjacent to Heritage Square in downtown Phoenix, this state-of-the-art museum is one of the anchors of the city's downtown revitalization plan. It presents an interesting look at the history of a city that, to the casual visitor, might not seem to have any history. Interactive exhibits make this place much more interesting than your average local history museum. One unusual exhibit explores how "lungers" (tuberculosis sufferers) inadvertently helped originate the tourism industry in Arizona. There's also an exhibit on ostrich ranching.
Historic Sahuaro Ranch
Phoenix and neighboring valley communities started out as farming communities, but today there's little sign of this early agricultural heritage. This historic ranch in Glendale is one noteworthy exception. With its tall date palms, resident peacocks, and restored farmhouse, Sahuaro Ranch is a great introduction to what life was like here in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The old fruit-packing shed now serves as a gallery hosting temporary exhibits; tours of the main house are offered.
Westin Kierland Resort & Spa
Painted the color of the Arizona's red rock canyons, this new resort is located just off Scottsdale Road and adjacent to the Kierland Commons "urban village" shopping center. Throughout the resort you'll find interpretive plaques, artworks by Arizona artists, and historic photos that provide loads of insights into Arizona history and natural history. The convenient location and distinct sense of place make this my favorite of the Phoenix area's new crop of megaresorts. Guest rooms all have balconies or patios, and although the bathrooms aren't all that large, this minor inconvenience is compensated for by Westin's Heavenly Beds, which are incredibly comfortable, pillow-top beds. Excellent Nuevo Latino cuisine is served at Deseo, and there's a great cowboy-style bar as well. The spa specializes in skin treatments and has a wide variety of fitness equipment, a 24-hour lap pool, and a restaurant. Then there's the main pool area, which includes a long tubing river, a water slide, a beach area, and another large pool.Facilities: 5 restaurants (Nuevo Latino, American); poolside snack bar; espresso bar/ice-cream parlor; 2 lounges; 3 pools; 3 9-hole golf courses; 2 tennis courts; health club; full-service spa with 20 treatment rooms; 4 Jacuzzis; game room; children's programs; concierge; business center; 24-hr. room service; massage; laundry service; dry cleaning; concierge-level rooms.
Copperwynd Resort and Club
Although it's a ways from Old Town Scottsdale, this boutique hotel, high on a ridge overlooking the town of Fountain Hills, is one of the most luxurious resorts in the area. The hotel is surrounded by a rugged desert landscape, which is one of the reasons I like this place so much: You know you're in the desert when you stay here. The resort has a fabulous tennis facility and an impressive health club and small spa, and although there's no golf course on the premises, there is one adjacent. The views are among the finest in the valley, and the Jacuzzi tucked into a rocky hillside is as romantic as they come. All guest rooms have great views and feature a sort of European deluxe decor. Balconies provide plenty of room for taking in the vista. There's an excellent restaurant on the premises, so the distance from town isn't as significant as it might otherwise be.Facilities: 2 restaurants (New American, American); lounge; juice bar; 2 pools; 9 tennis courts; health club and full-service spa; 3 Jacuzzis; saunas; bike rentals; children's programs; game room; concierge; pro shop; room service; massage; babysitting; laundry service; dry cleaning.
Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa
For decades this has been the favored Phoenix address of celebrities, politicians, and old money, and the distinctive cast-cement blocks inspired by a Frank Lloyd Wright design make this a unique architectural gem. It's the historic character and timeless elegance that really set this place apart. Let the beautiful people and the new money have The Phoenician; I'll take the Biltmore. The wide lawns, colorful flower gardens, and views of Piestewa Peak make outdoor lounging here an absolute joy (just bring me a gin and tonic over at the croquet court). While the two golf courses and expansive spa are the main draws for many guests, the children's activities center also makes this a popular choice for families. Of the several different styles of accommodations, the "resort rooms" are quite comfortable and come with balconies or patios. Those rooms in the Arizona Wing are also good choices. The villa suites are the most spacious and luxurious of all. Afternoon tea, a Phoenix institution, is served in the lobby.Facilities: 5 restaurants (New American, Southwestern, American); lounge; 8 pools (1 with a water slide and 1 with rental cabanas); 2 18-hole golf courses plus 18-hole putting course; 7 tennis courts; lawn games; health club and full-service spa; 2 Jacuzzis; saunas; bike rentals; children's programs; concierge; car-rental desk; courtesy shopping shuttle; business center; room service; massage; laundry service; dry cleaning; executive-level rooms.
