Reviews for Sanctuary Camelback Mountain Resort & Spa
Fantastic weekend getaway
Fantastic stay, room, view, service, food @ Elements are the best of the best. I booked a casita and dinner at Elements to celebrate my wife's birthday, followed by a couples massage the next morning. The entire experience was fantastic. So relaxing and enjoyed the time together.

Splendid Experience from start to finish.
A wonderful experience - as always. We have been here three times now and the experience is always spectacular. First off the resort is amazing in a fabulous setting. The staff is extremely helpful no matter what time of day. The rooms are beautiful. The bed is very comfortable and everything is very clean. We especially love the Quails and Hummingbirds that are all over the grounds. The restaurant- Elements and the Jade Bar are wonderful. The food is very good and the staff is great. The views from the restaurant at night are simply amazing. Highly recommend this place if you’re visiting the Scottsdale area.

Great getaway!
This was the most luxurious place to recuperate after a big running race. Outstanding service, getting picked up in golf carts, gorgeous views, and comfortable and clean accommodations! The complimentary classes still ran even though I was the only attendee in some of them!

Consistently high class
We travel here 2-3 times a year and always love the consistency we receive of high class service and amenities. Very close to everything from hiking(Camelbak Mtn right above you), shopping, golf, and restaurants. resort is just the right size for couples or families.

Not for me, but I’m probably better than you
Save your money and go anywhere else. I’ve been to AZ four times. Outdated hotel, insane prices ($22 for avocado toast and i accidentally opened a small sunscreen for $36), sub par restaurant and uncool bar. - Views are blocked - Over cooked my steak - Kids at their one pool - Men’s sauna room broken - Lawn guy blowing leaves every day at 730 am - Hollow rooms so heard my neighbors yelling - Dogs roaming I could go on. But maybe you have real low standards like the other people that stayed here.

Just returned from a trip that included a four-night package at Sanctuary Camelback Mountain. The level of service cannot be overestimated. At the pool it took no more than two minutes for someone to bring glasses of ice water with lemon - every chaise was covered with a lounge cover and a fresh towel waiting under an opened umbrella. The quality of the food was exceptional as well. I cannot tell you what a splendid experience this was. Thanks for the opportunity!
