Scottsdale arizonaBaby It’s Warm Outside!
A Winter Retreat To Scottsdale, Arizona

by Tracy Phillips, Arizona Tourism Center

While most of the nation is battling freezing temperatures and shoveling snow, Scottsdale Arizona is basking in sunshine and experiencing warm temperatures hovering between the mid sixties to the mid seventies.  Perfect weather for all the great outdoor activities (yes, shopping is one of them!) that Scottsdale offers: golf, desert tours, Hot Air Balloon rides and more.  So shake off those winter blues and come to Scottsdale!

Now, where to stay…  Scottsdale is home to many fabulous resorts, one of which is The Scottsdale Links Resort.  Located on the famous TPC golf course, this resort is great for families, but is also perfect for a romantic getaway.  This all-suite resort offers: heated pool, hot tub, fitness center, grill areas, on-site activities and personal Concierge service.  One bedroom suites feature: private patio or balcony, full kitchen, washer/dryer and sleep four comfortably.  These suites really are a home away from home and with a full kitchen, one has the option of dining in room.  Also, The Links has two and three bedroom suites available, perfect for a guys golf weekend, girlfriend getaway or the larger family.  And of course, the resort is close to all the golf, spas, shopping and dining that has made Scottsdale such a vacation destination.

Other than simply enjoying the warm weather, there is so much to do in Scottsdale.  Of course Scottsdale is famous for its golf courses and winter is a great time to get out and play.  And don’t forget, Scottsdale has more spas per capita than any other city in the United States.  Also, with all those great shops & restaurants one could fill a week just eating and spending!  Looking for something a little more rugged? Scottsdale is surrounded by the beautiful Sonoran Desert and offers a myriad of ways to explore it: horseback, ATV, Hummer or Hot Air Balloon.  The Valley of the Sun also offers plenty of great museums, a zoo and an aquarium.  Or just lay by the pool and get a winter tan that will make one’s friends green with envy.

It is our belief that education starts at home and branches outward. Education leads to travel, and travel leads to understanding, tolerance, and appreciation of cultures and customs different to our own, and ultimately to world peace. Our company is further based on the principle that networking, communication, and helping others to promote and market themselves leads to financial stability; thus paving the way to better education, travel, and the spirit of giving back to the community."
