Room

The Room has a private balcony or patio with views of the surrounding South Mountain area or the resort grounds. The resort sits against South Mountain in South Phoenix. Which outlook you get depends on the room you are assigned.

The Room has one king bed and one double sofa bed, which is queen-size, so it sleeps up to four guests. The king bed has a pillowtop mattress and premium bedding, and blackout drapes help with sleeping in. The sofa bed is in the sitting area, so it suits a couple with two children or two couples who do not mind sharing the living space.

The Room has a private bathroom with a shower and bathtub combination. It comes with towels, a hair dryer and free toiletries, so you do not need to pack the basics. The tub is handy for bathing younger children.

Yes. Arizona Grand Resort & Spa is family-friendly and welcomes children of all ages, and the Room can provide a travel crib for little ones. Connecting rooms are available if your group is larger than four. The resort's water park is a short walk away. Children under 12 there must be accompanied by an adult, and the thrill slides require a height of 48 inches.

The mandatory Resort Fee covers high-speed Wi-Fi, self-parking, access to the 20,000-square-foot Athletic Club, four water park wristbands, unlimited local and toll-free calls, complimentary golf warm-up balls and a USA Today newspaper on request. Pool towels, loungers and standard outdoor seating are free of charge. The resort's pools and water park are heated to the low 80s year-round.

Besides the sitting area, there is a desk with a laptop workspace and a phone. You also get a minibar, coffee and tea maker, in-room safe, iron and ironing board, and a flat-screen TV with cable, premium channels and pay movies. Housekeeping is daily, and room service runs during limited hours. Guest Suite Dining can bring meals from Lobby Grill and Aunt Chilada's Tempe to your room.

The water park is about a 2–3 minute walk from the resort, and the 18-hole Arizona Grand Golf Course is about a 5-minute walk. The Sedona, Camelback and Mountainside pools are open 6am–10pm, and the Adult Only Lap Pool is open 7am–10pm. Dining includes Lobby Grill (breakfast from 6:30am and all-day dining until 10pm), Aunt Chilada's Tempe for Mexican dinners, Rustler's Rooste for steaks, and Marketplace Café for Starbucks® refreshments and pastries. The Arizona Grand Spa is also on site.

Check-in begins at 4pm, with rooms guaranteed by 6pm, and check-out is at 11am. The guest checking in must be 18 or older. Resort guests can enter the water park from 12pm on arrival day and stay on after check-out, with bags stored by Bell Staff. This is subject to seasonal operation, and the park closes for a period around the end of December, so check dates if you are travelling over the holidays.

The resort is about 6 miles and a 10–11 minute drive from Phoenix's main airport. There is no airport shuttle, so use a taxi or rideshare such as Uber or Lyft, typically about $15–35. Self-parking is included in the Resort Fee, with no separate parking charge.

The resort does not accept pets. Service animals are the exception, though a $250 pet cleaning fee may apply. Wheelchair-accessible options are offered in this category.
