Situated on 53 acres, high above the Valley, Sanctuary on Camelback Mountain recalls an era when the finest resorts were elegant and intimate. Where ancient native peoples once gathered to make ceremonial offerings to their dieties, this Small Luxury Hotels of the World member offers today's kindred spirits an ambience of serenity and spirituality. In the desert-meets-manmade-oasis known as Scottsdale, Sanctuary's magnificent recreational facilities are equaled only by its locale.

Above the spectacular food, views and amenities, the staff made our stay a true delight. The spa treatment was incredible and everyone went above and beyond to ensure that we had a special experience. We were thrilled to invite friends and family to visit this beautiful resort with us.

There's only one restaurant but they try to have a diverse menu. I prefer choices of genre. Spa treatment using CBD oils was terrific. Not much nightlife (dancing, etc.) We did not use any of the sport facilities. Rooms are spacious and clean.

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.

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.

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!
