The Wigwam Golf Resort & Spa

Frommer's Review

Located 20 minutes west of downtown Phoenix, this property opened its doors to the public in 1929 and remains one of the nation's premier golf resorts. It's a classic, with old-school gentility, but when the money all headed to Scottsdale, this place became an elegant oasis surrounded by tract houses. Like the Arizona Biltmore and the Camelback Inn, the Wigwam Golf Resort & Spa is an old-money sort of place, and the traditional-style golf courses are the main attraction. Most of the guest rooms are in adobe-style buildings, surrounded by green lawns and colorful gardens, and all of the spacious units feature contemporary Southwestern furniture and plush beds. Some units have fireplaces, but the rooms to request are those along the golf course. There's a Red Door Spa and a golf school.

Facilities: 3 restaurants (Southwestern, American, steakhouse); 3 lounges; 2 pools; 3 18-hole golf courses; 9 tennis courts; health club; full-service spa; 2 Jacuzzis; bikes; children's programs; concierge; car-rental desk; business center; salon; 24-hr. room service; massage; babysitting; laundry service; dry cleaning; executive-level rooms.
