Royal Palms Resort and Spa

Frommer's Review

This gorgeous little hideaway has the feel of a Spanish villa that was transported to Arizona and is so romantic and beautiful that the moment you set foot in the first cloistered garden, you might imagine that you hear flamenco guitar. Located midway between Old Town Scottsdale and Biltmore Fashion Park, the Royal Palms was constructed more than 50 years ago by Cunard Steamship executive Delos Cooke and is done in Spanish mission style. Giving the resort the tranquil feel of a Mediterranean monastery are lush walled gardens where antique water fountains splash. The most memorable guest rooms are the designer casitas, each with a distinctive decor ranging from opulent contemporary to classic European. However, all the rooms are beautiful and have superplush beds. T. Cook's restaurant is one of the city's most romantic restaurants.
