REVIEW OF MOUNTAIN SHADOWS PHOENIX RESORT
MOUNTAIN SHADOWS PHOENIX RESORT REVIEW
A wonderful hotel is a part of the joy of visiting a new (or well-known) city. Central Arizona and the Phoenix area are known for their luxurious resorts, complete with spas and golf courses. My most recent trip to Phoenix included a stay at Mountain Shadows outside of Scottsdale. This beautiful resort is located near Phoenix, Arizona, and offers a wide array of amenities and services.
ABOUT MOUNTAIN SHADOWS
Camelback Mountain and Mummy Mountain are perfectly visible from the grounds of Mountain Shadows, a boutique resort in Paradise Valley. The 1959 opening gave the hotel its name because of its geographic location. It has served as a tourist attraction for Hollywood celebrities, international travelers, and families who enjoy the sun in Arizona for many years. Despite having many different owners, the resort's name remained unchanged, even after it was closed in 2004 and rebuilt in 2017.
There is still a sense of the property's history as you look around it, even though it was completely reconstructed, reopened, and reopened in 2017. Mountain Shadow's long history and the beautiful landscape that it is situated in are considered when designing the resort, including its retro-inspired architecture and breeze blocks by the pool.
During our girls trip to Phoenix, Mountain Shadows was the perfect place to stay since it is an iconic and beloved destination for travelers to Phoenix.
