This luxury golf community, located in the private San Tan Valley, seamlessly blends the good looks of the Old World with new-school amenities and features. Two standouts of Encanterra include the 60,000-sq.-ft. show-stopping La Casa Club and the Tom Lehman-designed 18-hole private golf course, while springtime brings the popular signature concert series, The Good Life Festival, which has attracted music fans from the around the Valley to enjoy acts like The Band Perry and Heart since 2010.  trilogylife.com.

What’s New: The second resort clubhouse, The Algarve, recently opened its doors at Encanterra. The club boasts 8,000 square feet, a resort-style pool, two bocce ball lanes, a multi-purpose room, a poolside bar, an event lawn and pickle ball courts. The Algarve is also home to Santorini’s Studio, an art studio where members can partake in workshops, art classes and make use of the kiln for pottery and clay work. Members can also dig into Tapas, the club’s new poolside restaurant.
