The open-air spa at Talking Stick Resort

The 13,000-square- foot hideaway on the resort’s 14th floor lets guests take in floor-to-ceiling views of the Sonoran Desert during treatments that incorporate local ingredients harvested from the SRPMIC’s gardens. Guests looking to rev up instead of relax can explore the

resort’s 240,000 square feet of gaming, offer- ing everything from 700 slots to the state’s largest poker room, appropriately named The ARENA for all the action enjoyed there. Five dining options — including the award- winning Orange Sky restaurant — satisfy groups’ every culinary craving.
