A brand-new pool area debuted at Mountain Shadows Resort Scottsdale. Its new adults-only Sunset Pool boasts Camelback Mountain views and sits at the western end of the resort surrounded by lush desert landscaping.

 

“We’re thrilled to debut this stunning and sleek new pool area,” said Andrew Chippindall, vice president and general manager, Mountain Shadows Resort Scottsdale. “It’s a beautiful addition to the resort, enhancing the boutique luxury experience we pride ourselves on offering to our guests.”

The new pool area offers craft cocktails, light poolside fare and plenty of chaise lounges. Facing West, it makes for an amazing place to soak in sunset. It feels like swimming in relative Sonoran seclusion any time of the day. Mountain Shadows Resort Scottsdale also features The Citizens Club with two 75-foot swimming pools, as well as cabanas, daybeds, a pool bar and daily fitness classes.

 

The boutique resort in Paradise Valley, Arizona, is home to 183 guestrooms, a desert modern design, a luxury wing with 37 condominiums and suites, Hearth ’61 restaurant (with Executive Chef Charles Wiley at the helm), an 18-hole golf course with a grill and lounge, art exhibitions at The Gallery, and indoor and outdoor event space.
