The Best Resorts in the World: 2024 Readers’ Choice Awards
"Scottsdale, Arizona boasts 333 days a year of sunshine and impeccably powder blue skies, and the almost always sunny weather reflects off the six glimmering pools of the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess. While the Spanish Colonial architecture of the resort is classically Southwestern, the pools are refreshing reprieves from the at-times record-breaking heat. Kids will have a blast at the Sonoran Splash Pool, with its twisting twin water slides, and at the adults-only Sonoran Landing Pool, older guests can lounge about on floating bean bags and oversized hammocks. Neutrals and umbers theme the various guest room and suite offerings, and views show off the estate’s golfing grounds, gardens, and lagoon. The Fairmont Scottsdale Princess is also just a stone’s throw away from Scottsdale’s arts and culture venues such as the Heard Museum, natural landmarks like the McDowell Sonoran preserve, and shopping venues such as the city’s Fashion Square." - CNT Editors
