The Boulders is a cut above the rest. Just had an incredible breakfast, Tres Leches French Toast was beyond delicious, eggs Benedict looked like they were prepared for royalty and the Arizona Bloody Mary is a must have. Tomorrow golf, spa and more dining! Peyton, our server for breakfast, was so accommodating and gave us all the local knowledge as far as things to do and food to check out. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I'm a local and went out to the golf course with some friends here. We played the course for the second time (and came back because it's incredible). But we were treated with tons of generosity from Ranger Bill, who was our starter on the first tee and kept checking on us throughout the round. Apart from his work, he gave us incredible insight about the course and surrounding area for the future. We will 1000% come back to the course and resort in the future.

Ranger Bill makes this course a must visit. Mango frozen towels, great convo and always around to make sure we are having the best experience. I hope you run into ranger bill when you are here.

The location is amazing!!! Beautiful views wherever you look. Quiet and peaceful atmosphere. Our room was very clean and beautiful. The lighting was very relaxing. The only complaint we have is that we were under the impression it was a smoke free environment, however we smelled cigarette, cigar and weed many times and at all times of the day and night. We even saw a man smoking IN the pool and put his cigarette out on the pool deck🥴. This was definitely disappointing. Otherwise we would have given a five star rating. The food was amazing and the staff top notch.

An one of kind amazing experience the boulders resort! World class, a beautiful view on every corner. Golf cart rides no longer than a 5 minute wait. Enjoyed just walking around feeling good vibes from check in to check out. We will be doing this again so soon. We are locals to the area within 45 minutes. During summer perfect for my partner of 16 years. Not to mention i think we found place we wanna get married.
