The Saguaro, Scottsdale

Recently placed on the Conde Nast’s Top 121 Best New Hotels of the World, the colorful, vibrant character of the Southwest is reflected in The Saguaro, Joie de Vivre's first hotel property outside of California.

Located in the heart of Old Town Scottsdale, within a thriving cultural hub that includes the Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts, the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art and numerous art galleries, The Saguaro's 194 guest rooms channel the palette of the indigenous wildflowers of Arizona. The bold Southwestern hues are the work of renowned architects Peter Stamberg and Paul Aferiat, of New York based Stamberg Aferiat Architecture, whose design connects six wings of guest rooms, a reception pavilion, the Distrito restaurant run by celebrity chef Jose Garces, and the intimate Saguaro Spa, which offers services such as massage, body scrubs and yoga.

Whether venturing out to the nearby world-class golf courses exploring the hiking trails of Camelback Mountain, or experiencing the exciting nightlife and culture of Old Town Scottsdale, The Saguaro is the perfect retreat – a thoughtful desert oasis where guests can relax with all of the comforts and sophistication of a boutique hotel. www.jdvhotels.com.
