Four Seasons Resort Scottsdale

Hill Glazier's adobe-casita property opened December 1999 adjacent to Pinnacle Peak Park — 210 keys across 25 casita buildings, Whitespace on rooms, Wilson Associates on meeting spaces, BCDM on the spa, Paul Duesing on the kitchens. Talavera (Spanish), Proof and Saguaro Blossom anchor dining. Two Tom Weiskopf-designed Troon North courses (Pinnacle and Monument) five minutes by shuttle; 14-room spa with the Nopal Massage as the signature.

A Four Seasons resort spread across the Sonoran Desert at the foot of Pinnacle Peak, with saguaro-framed casitas and two championship golf courses. The definitive luxury desert resort, where the landscape is as much the design as the architecture.
