Royal Palms Resort and Spa

Excellent facility with great character, nice cooled pool and wonderful bar/restaurant atmosphere. Had a wonderful week there.

Just completed a work retreat at Royal Palms in July, and despite Phoenix's record-breaking heat, this resort delivered an exceptional experience thanks to outstanding staff and facilities. The Good Incredible Staff Performance: The entire team at Royal Palms truly shined during our stay. From the front desk to housekeeping, everyone went above and beyond to ensure our comfort despite the challenging weather conditions. Their professionalism and warm hospitality made all the difference. Pool Area Excellence: The pool staff deserves special recognition - they maintained impeccable service and kept the pool area pristine even when temperatures soared above 110°F. The pool itself was a welcome oasis, perfectly maintained and beautifully designed with palm-lined areas that provided some relief from the intense sun. Meeting Facilities: The resort's conference spaces are top-notch for corporate retreats. The Spanish Colonial architecture creates an inspiring atmosphere for strategic planning and team building. Air conditioning was excellent throughout all indoor venues. Dining: T. Cook's restaurant provided excellent meals, and the mixology classes were a fun team bonding activity in the evening. The Reality Check July Heat: Let's be honest - Phoenix in July is brutally hot. We're talking record temperatures that make outdoor activities challenging during midday hours. This isn't the resort's fault, but it's something to plan around if you're considering a summer visit. Bottom Line Royal Palms Resort excels at what it can control - service, facilities, and atmosphere. The staff's dedication to excellence, even under extreme weather conditions, speaks volumes about this property's commitment to guest satisfaction. While July might not be ideal weather-wise, the resort's indoor amenities and exceptional team made our retreat successful and memorable. Would I recommend? Absolutely, though I'd suggest visiting during cooler months if possible. For summer retreats, plan indoor activities and take advantage of early morning or late evening outdoor time. Perfect for: Corporate retreats, strategic planning sessions, luxury getaways (just not in peak summer!)

Wonderful secluded get away. T Cooks and Mixup are on the property and make for amazing evenings. Will definitely be back again!
