Scottsdale Plaza Resort

The Scottsdale Plaza Resort is an oasis of tranquility that captures the essence of scenic Arizona. Graceful Spanish Mediterranean architecture and décor create a cozy, private estancia-style feel. Take a dip in one of five heated pools located throughout the grounds, smooth out your stroke on the resort’s private putting green, or just experience the warm desert breezes and views of Camelback Mountain. Clusters of rooms and suites are tucked among peaceful courtyards that are surrounded by fragrant, indigenous flowers, seasonal plantings, 50-foot palms & eucalyptuses.

Scottsdale is located in the beautiful Sonoran Desert at the foot of the scenic McDowell Mountains. It is bordered by Phoenix to the West, the Tonto National Forrest to the North, the McDowell Mountains to the East, and the Salt River to the South. What to do during your conference downtime? We have a few ideas...

Spring Training

Spring Training baseball under the warm Arizona sun has been a tradition for devoted fans since 1947. Scottsdale is home to the San Francisco Giants, Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks.
