The perfect honeymoon stay
My wife and I stayed here for four days following our wedding in the Scottsdale area for our "mini-moon" to kick off married life with some relaxation and alone time. We stayed in one of the spa villas. We couldn't be happier with our experience. First, the service was phenomenal, to the point where all the staff new us by Mr/Mrs even on our first day. Everyone was available and willing to make our experience better, from food, to drinks by the pool, to the spa, to room service, to bell desk. Second, the property and surrounding areas are beautiful. Third, the spa was a great experience--as part of our stay package, we got a significant amount of credit that gave us about a massage per day during our stay, and the folks at the spa were very good. Fourth, our villa was fantastic, including a great bed, tons of space, and a very nice outdoor bath that had candles lit by it as part of turndown service. We would highly recommend this resort anytime you are looking to have the best of comfort and service. We are already planning out return.

We could not have asked for a more perfect venue to host our wedding reception. We worked a lot with Leah and Jessica, who both were incredibly responsive and helpful (patient too!) for the months leading up to the big day. Jessica was there even on the day itself, with us every step of the way to make sure things were going the way we hoped, and they absolutely did. The food was excellent, the service was amazing, and they worked seamlessly with the vendors we had chosen because they had all worked together before - it was a well oiled machine. We felt very fortunate to have chosen Sanctuary for our celebration, and we couldn’t have been happier.

My husband and I got married at the Sanctuary a few days ago and could not have been more thrilled with this venue. The second i drove up, i knew that this is where we would be married. Not only were the grounds and views spectacular, but the people working there are incredible. From the friendly valet team, to the wedding set-up crew to the chef's team and servers, everything was top notch. Jessica, who i worked with on the coordination side, deserves special praise- she is a true professional. She is friendly and was on top of everything! She answered my questions do quickly and was a pleasure to work with. One of the main reason's why i chose the Sanctuary was for the food. I am a firm believer of "you get what you pay for" and this was no exception. The beef was phemonenal- and so many guests said it was the best wedding meal they had ever had. I can't wait to celebrate future anniversaries at this resort.
