Why works for a corporate retreat.

Scottsdale is built for group travel. The resorts are designed around meetings and events, the weather is close to guaranteed for most of the year, and Phoenix's airport has direct flights from almost everywhere.

Why it works for groups

Large resorts with ballrooms, casitas, pools, and golf make it easy to keep a whole group on one property, from working sessions to awards dinners.

What to do

Desert jeep tours, sunrise hot air balloon rides, golf, spa days, and dinners under the stars.

Things to know

Summer is extremely hot, so most groups plan between October and April. Spring is peak season and books up early.
