Reviews for Sanctuary Camelback Mountain Resort & Spa
Nice experience at the sanctuary
Excellent stay at the sanctuary. Our room was very nice. Comfortable bed, furnished deck, nice seating area and excellent bathroom. The staff were great all around. Nice gym and we had great massages in the very nice relaxing spa. Only complaint was that we had difficulty enjoying the pool because each day we went we were attacked by flying gnats. Don't know if its the time of year or what, but the Hotel should spray the area to make it comfortable for its guests. But for this, my review would have been 5 stars.

NAIL SALON WARNING !!! ⚠️
First off to find the nail salon was very confusing but that wasn’t my entire issue. My main issue was they will convince you to try the Dazzle dry polish if you get Groupon of the deluxe pedicure please don’t listen when they say it’s just a $10 add on. It was a whole lie and I felt for my first experience that I was being lied to and it was hard to know if they were trustworthy after that since I go to pay and then I’m told it was a $35 add on. I emailed the management and nothing was done or told sorry on that experience… why does it seem so shady. Like I just don’t understand

Beautiful View and Lively Bar Scene
We stopped at Jade Bar for a cocktail. The best Old Fashion. They offer a happy hour with small plates. The view is beautiful, service impeccable, and bar lively. Valet or self-parking is available. A wonderful location for drinks or dinner - or both.

Nothing but the best!
Well I seen previous reviews and not sure why anyone would give a 4 let alone 3. I would say this place has it all figured out. Customer service, housekeeping, parking, the spa, diner, bar and area was fantastic!!!! We enjoyed Elements way much what a fantastic meal. ! We also had salads at Jade along with drinks. What a great job and very pleased with the meals. We were able to enjoy the spa amenities which were very relaxing. In addition we also took in a massage. “Joanna” rubbed all the aches in my back away. I could go on and on about this place as we have decided that going forward, this is the only resort for us. Thanks again to the entire staff!

Just returned from a trip that included a four-night package at Sanctuary Camelback Mountain. The level of service cannot be overestimated. At the pool it took no more than two minutes for someone to bring glasses of ice water with lemon - every chaise was covered with a lounge cover and a fresh towel waiting under an opened umbrella. The quality of the food was exceptional as well. I cannot tell you what a splendid experience this was. Thanks for the opportunity!
