| - From the moment we arrived at the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess, we were treated like 6-star clients. The check in process was smooth, professional and efficient. We chose to stay in a Casita Suite as it was our 1 year wedding anniversary. We were hoping for a very romantic, private, and comfortable luxury suite, and we certainly were not disappointed. Upon arriving at our room, we were very impressed with the quality of furnishings and style of the casita suite. It was lavish. Very private, overlooked TPC golf course, had a private veranda, a large living room with a fireplace, a large bedroom, large bathroom with a walk-in closet, large soaker tub, dual vanities, a safe, lush robes, it was beautiful.
We then called the front desk to see if there was a bell boy available to drive us around on a golf cart to explore the entire resort and see where the facilities were. Within 4 minutes, a gentleman named Dan was at our door to take us on a drive. He was wonderful. Fun, informative, even picked a few oranges off the trees in the garden for us to enjoy. So far, the experience was great! The gardens on the property were beautiful, fragrant, and filled with roses. The pools were beautiful, plenty of chairs, very clean with nice fireplaces and bars outside. There are gorgeous ponds on the property with Christmas lights and displays, and natural wildlife enjoying themselves. The grounds were very meticulously kept and beautiful.
Next, we enjoyed a dip in the private casita pool and hot tub, which had plenty of towels and comfortable chairs to lounge in, as well as a beautiful outdoor fireplace. Note: There is bar service at the larger pools, but not at the Casita pool.
That night, we enjoyed some drinks at the outdoor bar near the large Christmas trees. The outdoor area had a private fireplace per table to keep you warm. Great service, great drinks, great top shelf alcohol choices. Everything we really like, we were able to enjoy.
We returned that evening to a wonderful surprise in our room. We received a complimentary bottle of champagne on ice from the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess with a card congratulating us on our anniversary! What a wonderful thing to come back to! This was icing on the cake! We also called the front desk to ask if turndown service was included in the package we purchased, which was not, and that was just fine with us. But, after 20 seconds of hanging up the phone, we received a call back from the front desk stating that we will indeed be receiving a complimentary turn-down service, courtesy of the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess! WOW! We were beyond impressed!
We ordered breakfast in bed the next morning, and although expensive, the breakfast came at the exact time we had pre-ordered it for, and it was hot and delicious! We both had the Eggs Benedict and it was perfectly cooked. We enjoyed our complimentary bottle of champagne with the fresh oranges, and our breakfast in bed. Great way to start our anniversary day! Thank you Fairmont Princess!
After hanging out at the Well & Being Spa (see my review for that) we decided to check out the roof top pool (co-ed with bar & food service). The pool area was gorgeous, very clean, quiet. The bartender, Tyler, was friendly and welcoming, and very professional. He offered to make us a bloody mary. Although drinks up there are about $15 each, I couldn't resist the sound of a bloody mary. I am so glad I said yes because this was by far the BEST bloody mary I had ever had in my entire life! (And I am quite picky) Extra spicy, with actual chopped jalapeno in it, 2 large olives, absolutely perfect. We had a few more of those, and seeing as it was so slow up there, we started getting to talking with Tyler. He enticed us with a taster of this, a taster of that, we ordered more drinks, and ended up having an absolute blast with Tyler. We told him it was our anniversary, and the next thing we know, he had 2 huge beautiful pieces of chocolate cake delivered to us pool side, again compliments of the Fairmont! We cannot say how above and beyond Tyler went in making our anniversary experience at the roof top pool something we will always cherish! He really did not have to put in the effort he did, but because he did, it will be one of the reasons we will return for future anniversaries.
The Fairmont Scottsdale Princess from check in to check out, was a 6 start experience, and I must say, has ensured our return for every anniversary going forward. The Fairmont knows how to treat their clients. We have stayed at many 5 star Scottsdale resorts, and many luxury resorts around the world, and this was by far the best experience we have ever had at any price level we have paid. Thank you Fairmont Scottsdale Princess. Your level of attention to detail, professionalism, luxury offerings, and the simple "know how to treat your clients" has been greatly appreciated and noted. You made our first wedding anniversary absolutely perfect! We would not have changed
