Room, Resort View

Your windows open onto the resort's own grounds, with desert landscaping and the resort pools forming the vista. It is a view of the property itself rather than a distant skyline, which suits guests who want to feel the desert-resort setting from the room.

The room is offered with 1 King or 2 Queen Beds and sleeps up to four guests. Each bed has a pillowtop mattress, and blackout drapes help with sleep after a day by the pool or on the golf course.

The Resort View room measures 448 sq. ft. and is a one-bedroom layout with air conditioning and heating, so it stays comfortable through the hot summer months and cooler desert evenings.

The private bathroom has a deep soaking bathtub and a separate shower, plus bathrobes, complimentary toiletries and a hair dryer. Towels and bed sheets are changed on request.

With room for four and the option of two queen beds, it works well for families, and the resort is family-friendly overall.
