We were underdressed for this place. Our room key failed 3 times to work. The hotel needs to step up security late night on the pool to keep the kids in check from drinking at the pool in cups and bottles. There is a mini bar in the room at $$$ and no vending machines in the place (go to... More

The Montelucia Resort is off the charts wonderful. The setting, nestled in Camelback Mountain is awesome. It makes you feel like you are in the best part of Morocco. It sweeps you away and there is no reason to leave the property as everything is provided. There are options for all types of dining and room service arrived in less... More

it was a very tough decision, what with all of the many choices of places to stay in sunny Scottsdale, but we chose the Montelucia "campus" resort. I don't think I'd fight really hard to return there, but there are some great and some not so great things to say about my experience. The "ambience" of the place felt quite... More

I am a native-Arizonian and I love love love this resort. I've done several "stay-cations" here and am even planning my wedding here in the fall. When you enter the resort, you feel as though you've stepped into another world. The colorful Andalusian decor is beautiful and completely compliments the desert and Camelback Mountain backdrop. The rooms are spacious, beds... More
