US Airways - April 2013 - (Page 80)

Desert Delight Indulge at talkIng StIck ReSoRt. ★ talkingstick resort.com 80 april 2013 Scottsdale’s Talking Stick Resort is more than a hotel — it’s entertainment central. This 500-room, AAA Four Diamond resort offers so many diversions that you may never leave the property. Hit the links on two championship golf courses, then check out the pool scene. On the weekends, the property hosts hip pool parties. For a more tran- usairwaysmag.com quil setting, head to the open-air spa on the 14th floor. Choose one of the treatments inspired by the surrounding Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community, such as the Peaceful Healing massage that uses raw Pima cotton poultices filled with desert herbs to relax the mind and the body. To watch the sun set, head to the 15th floor where the signature fine-dining restaurant, Orange Sky, offers 360-degree views. (Tip: Book a table in one of the secluded high-back booths.) The equally impressive menu features premium-aged beef and fresh seafood, and a Wine Spectator–rated wine list. Talking Stick has ten restaurants and lounges, but don’t head right to your room after dinner. The resort is also home to one of Arizona’s largest casinos. Try your luck at one of 700 slot machines, ante up in the poker room, or buy in at the blackjack table. Gambling not your thing? See who’s performing in the 650-seat Showroom or in the Salt River Grand Ballroom. Upcoming shows include The Tubes (April 5), Dwight Yoakam (April 20), Foreigner (April 26), and comedian Gabriel Iglesias (May 3). The Grand Ballroom is part of the resort’s Conference Center, which accommodates groups up to 2,000. Talking Stick also offers 22 indoor meeting rooms and 50,000 square feet of outdoor event space. —Martha-Page Althaus http://www.talkingstickresort.com http://www.usairwaysmag.com
