| - My wife and I decided on a quick 3 night getaway before the long winter in Detroit sets in. Heard from a friend about the Sanctuary so had to give it a try.
The reservation process was great. The concierge helped me via email find the right room, dates, etc. and made me feel valued throughout the process.
Got a Spa Casita facing the mountain. It was beautiful. Little patio, comfy king size bed, nice sofa, fantastic shower and bathroom. Wi-fi included in the resort fee worked great. Well stocked mini-bar, flat screen, DVD and stereo. Scented candles and all the little touches that make you just relax and know you are somewhere special.
The check-in was painless and friendly. Super helpful front desk folks and bellhops. For that matter everyone is friendly. Walking around the grounds every staff member says hello with a smile. You know the guest is king when you are walking along and the housekeeping people on a golf cart stop to let you by without noise, smile and ask how you are doing! Really nice touch -- well done Sanctuary on your customer service training.
Grounds are beautiful. 3 pools, well equipped gym, great spa, excellent bar, outdoor seating areas, outstanding food. What is not to love?
An easy 10 minute drive to Scottsdale and a million restaurants if you so choose.
We had a fantastic time. There is too much to write about but I hope you get the idea -- if you want to pamper yourself, relax and get treated like royalty for a few days, pick the Sanctuary. We like to try new places, but we will no doubt be back!
