Property Description

Nestled in the high Sonoran Desert foothills north of Scottsdale, this celebrated resort blends so easily with nature that the local wildlife might never notice anything there. Only 160 individual casitas are shaped into the dramatic natural terrain. The private country club features two 18-hole championship golf courses, a tennis garden and the Sonoran Spa. And five distinctively different restaurants offer intriguing options for dining. No wonder The Boulders is consistently named America's top resort by readers of Andrew Harper's Hideaway Report, "a connoisseur's guide to peaceful and unspoiled places."

A lazy afternoon horseback ride through the rugged desert once roamed by prospectors and pioneers.

Exploring the wonders surrounding The Boulders on a mountain bike adventure or jeep tours led by colorful Native American guides.

The Sonoran Spa offers rock climbing instruction, hikes and nature walks...as well as treks to Arizona wonders like an old-time gold mine and petroglyphs carved in stone by long-ago desert dwellers.

One of the most appealing attractions at The Boulders is the resort's festival-style marketplace, el Pedregal. Just a short stroll from the main lodge, it offers a variety of intriguing shops, restaurants and galleries with art and other treasures that reflect the spirit of the Southwest.
