Welcome to Central Arizona
For sunny days, starry nights, peaceful desert scenery and some pretty epic golf, you can’t beat Scottsdale, Arizona. From architectural wonders to award-winning museums, family-friendly attractions to wine-tasting rooms for the grown-ups, this enticing city appeals to all ages. Scottsdale carries with it a posher feel than some southwestern destinations – some even refer to it as “The Beverly Hills of the Southwest.” The luxurious overtones are evident in jaw-dropping Scottsdale vacation rentals, world-class art galleries and celebrity-chef restaurants. And yet, that luxe ambiance is never pretentious. In a place of singular beauty – both rugged and refined – residents and visitors find stimulating activities and company when they want it and peace and privacy when they need it.
Scottsdale vacation rentals provide visitors with that comforting sense of home while on vacation. These are sophisticated residences from which one can come and go easily, heading off to explore the Sonoran Desert or staying in to float in a private infinity pool. There are homes for every traveler’s group size, style and interests – providing a plush place to return to after a day out in Scottsdale.
For outdoor enthusiasts, Scottsdale is a dream. One of the biggest and best ways to enjoy the desert playground is exploring the McDowell Sonoran Preserve with 32,000+ acres of space for hiking, biking, mountain climbing and horseback riding. Take your pick from challenging Camelback Mountain or local favorites Tom’s Thumb and Pinnacle Peak for the best views.
All that outdoor desert exploration leaves one with a hearty appetite. Foodies and oenophiles flock to the outposts of culinary stars Charleen Badman, Matt Carter and Beau MacMillan. These and many other chefs here are among the best in the country and eager to show off their locavore-influenced menus to those who appreciate good food and wine. Many of these eateries can be found in the vibrant Old Town, the heart of the city and providing easy, walkable access to nine different neighborhoods.
When it comes to arts and culture, Scottsdale also loves to show off – and with good reason. Art aficionados adore the Scottsdale ArtWalk, which has been running longer than other art walks in the country. This free block party every Thursday evening introduces art fans to local galleries, enticing them with live demonstrations and complimentary wine and apps. The Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art is also a big hit – and free on Thursdays – both for its five incredible galleries and its award-winning minimalist design by Will Bruder. Theater goers can choose from a diverse lineup of performances at the Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts, while music types can see more than 15,000 instruments from around the world at the aptly named Musical Instrument Museum.
For golfers, Scottsdale boasts more than 200 courses, many located at luxury resorts. Experience the round of a lifetime under year-round sunny skies, teeing off in the Sonoran Desert in view of Pinnacle Peak at Legend Trail Golf Club, the top-rated, private Gainey Ranch Golf Club or on the championship Rancho Manana course, where the game leads players through parts of a historic dude ranch.
Families find entertainment for every age in Scottsdale, from the McCormick Stillman Railroad Park with its 5/12ths scale train ride, 1950s carousel and model railroad displays, to the OdySea Aquarium, where kids can see and touch sealife from around the world.
The best way to immerse oneself in the urban chic-meets-Old West charm of Scottsdale is with a private residence to call one’s own. Scottsdale vacation rentals offer the creature comforts of home, yet the luxury amenities and special touches that are so deserved on vacation. Guests can spread out with family and friends in desert-inspired homes with expansive living and dining areas, chef’s kitchens, private pools, huge picture windows to let in Sonoran vistas and more.
