Scottsdale Camelback Resort (SCR) is a great place to spend a week in the spring! It is conveniently located for all the activities we enjoy in the greater Phoenix area.
The resort was built in the early 1980s, but the maintenance and upkeep make for a relaxed and upscale stay. The resort has tennis courts that were recently refinished, a great pool area (including a terrific kids pool), a small bar/cafe, a full exercise room, a beautifully landscaped grounds. There are activities onsite for all ages, too.
Check-in was quick and easy. We had a two bedroom condo with full kitchen. The unit had a new king-sized bed, new living room and dining room furniture, and felt like home for our week there.
This is NOT a hotel, so don't expect clean sheets daily and turn-down service. This is a timeshare condo with a midweek cleaning. You can get a variety of newspapers delivered to your door each morning.
SCR is close to several of the Spring Training ballparks and many local golf courses. The concierge can get you tee times. Old Town Scottsdale is just a few blocks away as is Fashion Square Mall and the Scottsdale River Walk. Restaurants, grocery stores, and shopping is all close by. You have easy access to Scottsdale Road, the 101 Loop, and the airport is less than 15 minutes using Scottsdale Road and the 202 Loop.
Even though the resort is right on busy Camelback Road, it is amazingly quiet.
The staff was friendly and helpful. We had no problems during our stay and will definitely return to the resort.
