Scottsdale, Arizona
We love creating unique travel experiences around the world, even if they are in our own backyard!
Scottsdale, Arizona is just a short flight away, but during the winter it might as well be half a world away; Scottsdale in the wintertime is as good as it gets!
On this fun adventure, we traded in our snow shovels, boots, and hats for shorts and golf clubs. After checking into the beautiful Pointe Hilton Tapatio Cliffs Resort, we went straight out to the golf course and played at the challenging Lookout Mountain Golf Club. Those of us who brought our clubs straight from cold storage needed a few holes to warm up, but it was hard to complain when we were enjoying sunny, 75 degree weather! Those who did not golf took advantage of the exceptional resort spa and hung out by the oasis of pools, waterfalls, and slides on the property.
In the evenings we enjoyed cool weather; perfect for strolling through the unique shops, eating at some of Scottsdale's incredible restaurants, and other fun activities such as watching a movie, enjoying the Super Bowl football game, and taking a late night dip in one of the resort's hot tubs!
This was a fun adventure - the hardest part was putting away the flip flops and knowing that on the other end of our return flight winter was waiting. All the guests had a wonderful experience and enjoyed their short but very pleasant time in the 'Valley of the Sun.'
