Sanctuary Camelback Mountain Resort & Spa

Sanctuary Camelback Mountain Resort occupies the south-facing slope of Camelback Mountain in Paradise Valley — the wealthiest municipality in Arizona and home to the most exclusive zip codes in the American Southwest. The resort's hillside position delivers extraordinary panoramic views across Paradise Valley to the McDowell Mountains and distant Superstition Wilderness, with the Phoenix skyline appearing at night in the valley below. The Sanctuary Spa is a 12,000-square-foot facility featuring Finnish sauna, steam rooms, outdoor therapeutic pools terraced into the mountain face, and desert botanical treatments using local succulents and mineral clays. The infinity pool appears to spill off the mountain into the valley. The resort is consistently rated among Arizona's finest and serves as a preferred retreat for Hollywood studios filming in the Scottsdale area.
