I love Arizona. We photographed our last wedding of the 2019 season in November and had the opportunity to soak up some sunshine (and eat the best French toast) at the Arizona Biltmore.

Caleb and I have been trying to think of a vacation for March. The Wisconsin winters are long, dull, and cold and by the time March comes around, we are pretty restless and in dire need of some vitamin C.

One of the places we keep looking at is Arizona. We went to Scottsdale last Spring for a getaway over with our friends Jess & Chris and it was a blast. We rented a condo, ate amazing tacos, and had some quiet time by the pool.

Whether you’re looking to take a trip with your friends or family, looking to go on a weekend getaway with your significant other, or maybe you’re ready to go on a solo adventure, I think Arizona is a fabulous choice.

Whatever you’re in the market for, I’ve rounded up six Arizona vacation resorts that will allow you to soak up some much-needed rest and relaxation while providing you with ample amounts of sunshine.

I searched the internet and read so many travel reviews and that is how I narrowed down the 6 resorts.

6 Best Rejuvenating Vacation Resorts in Arizona

Arizona Biltmore

2400 East Missouri Avenue, Phoenix, Arizona

The Arizona Biltmore is a dream vacation resort for anyone who takes delight in architecture or history. The Arizona Biltmore first opened on February 23, 1929. The historical resort was designed by Albert Chase McArthur, a Harvard graduate and a student of Frank Lloyd Wright. The Biltmore is one of the only existing luxury hotels in the world that was influenced by the great American architect and interior designer, Frank Lloyd Wright. Complimentary history tours are even provided for resort guests on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays at 10 AM.

We photographed a wedding here in November and it was SUCH an amazing venue and the perfect way to relax after a crazy wedding season. My favorite part of our time here was relaxing by the pools and taking a bike ride to the nearby restaurants just outside of the resort.

I liked that the Arizona Biltmore not only provides a rich sense of history to its guests, it’s also brimming with numerous amenities and services. The Biltmore is home to five phenomenal dining options, five dazzling swimming pools, two 18-hole Championship Golf Courses, and two tennis courts. At the award-winning Spa Biltmore, guests can even receive soothing organic treatments.

Staying at the Arizona Biltmore combines the elements of history, luxury, and relaxation.
