Sanctuary Camelback Mountain

The place

Fifty-three acres of desert in Paradise Valley, with views in every direction. The 110 casitas and suites scatter across the mountainside in varied configurations — contemporary furniture, desert-inspired artwork, a metallic bathroom with a soaking tub.

An infinity pool holds the view; two satellite pools, tennis and pickleball courts, and a fitness center sit nearby. The Asian-inspired spa keeps twelve treatment rooms, a meditation garden, and a reflection pond — the quietest corner of the property.

Elements, the main restaurant, cooks seasonal fare from organic, locally sourced produce.
