Through Labor Day weekend, guests are invited to have a rockin’ good time at The Scottsdale Resort, with wallet-friendly rates as low as $99, plus tax and resort fee, per night. Though the resort offers many of the amenities of much larger resorts (think beautiful accommodations, luxury cabanas at a relaxing pool area, top-notch food and beverage), The Scottsdale gives off a more boutique vibe. Meaning, there’s more opportunity for utter relaxation as opposed to jetting from one end of the property to another, from one floor to the next.

A day at the resort is best spent hanging poolside in one of the luxury cabanas, which are available for rent daily and feature a food and beverage credit at Twisted Vine Pool Bar & Grill. The cabanas are stocked with fruit, ice-cold water, comfy seating and a TV, and an attendant is on hand to take food and drink orders and help with any needs you may have. Order a southwest chicken salad for a just-right poolside lunch and sip on a pina colada (because if you can’t have a pina colada poolside, where can you?) Tuck away in the cabana to read a book or sprawl on reserved loungers to take in live tunes from the Mark Long Band which bring stellar covers that range from Jimmy Buffett to The Rolling Stones. Once the sun goes down, the pool is still the spot to be as it hosts rock ‘n’ roll-themed movies all summer long, like “The Buddy Holly Story” and “Walk The Line,” on Friday and Saturday nights. (Especially fun if you have kids in tow, The Scottsdale hosts games, like life-size beer pong, cornhole, horseshoes, bocce ball and ping pong, in its courtyard a few steps from the pool area as well.)
