Attended the Phoenix Business Journal's Best Places to Work luncheon at the Desert Ridge Marriott this week. The staff was helpful to find the event ballrooms and they did a good job at catering/ serving. They always do a great job here and have a nice facility. I've visited the spa several times and love that too! They have a sauna, steam room, and good masseuses! I'll go back for sure.
Nice place. Some of the staff was a little less than pleasant when helping. Lovely grounds. Don't understand why they spend so much time and wasting so many precious resources growing things like grass and birch trees in places where they aren't natural. Yes, I understand on the golf course, but otherwisenot so sure. The rooms were not as nice as they should have been for the price.
This is a great property. There are a couple minor shortcomings. The room service is limited but there are restaurants on site. My room was ground level and my cell did not work from my room for voice. They charge for phone calls but waived that charge when i explained my phone was not getting reception. Beers are $7. Staff is responsive. The food catered at our even was mediocre at best. But i recommend for a relaxing get away.
This resort is beautiful. The staff was amazing. The service second to none. There is so much to do that you don't have to leave the resort if you don't want to. They have several wonderful restaurants, a Starbucks, a gift shop, an amazing spa, golf, trails, several pools, and so much more. Our suite had amazing views where we could watch the sun rise right from bed.
I was at the JW Marriott for a professional event. Our ballroom was beautifully decorated. The food was delicious and the staff was; polite and professional. We had a wonderful time, and our event staff made it all seem effortless. Thank you!! We can't wait to come back for Christmas!!
I attend numerous conferences and professional meetings in a year and so far the JW Marriot in Phoenix is at the top of my list. I was a presenter at a recent event held there and it was well organized and extremely well executed. Top notch staff and a very high quality establishment. Great place. I highly recommend it.
I enjoyed the service and staff was great. Their spa was quite tranquil and spoke for a quiet afternoon with my wife. The children weren't too bothersome at the desert ridge pool areas. The lazy river was a nice touch. The golfing could've been better but that's just me talking about my stroke. Would stay here again
Fantastic experience and stay here at the resort. We stayed at the resort for the first time and just for one night. Took advantage of the summer deals they have. Superb property and excellent 5-star customer service. Staff is always smiling and ready to help. The pools are nice, lazy river is fun. The water slide is for kids under 10. It's small. My husband and I used their fitness center. We also went biking with family using their bikes from the sports store. They also let us do a late checkout upon request. We wanted to stay and enjoy the pool and other facilities. Rooms are big and also had a balcony with a view. Bathrooms are big and clean. Gift stores have a good variety and not super pricey. There is also a Starbucks on the property. In short, wonderful experience overall. Will surely stay there again.
Just spent four days at this property. A few standouts of the people who made it special. Jesse gave me a fantastic massage when I visited the spa. Aaron was our bellman on arrival and departure and was not only friendly but gave us lots of good ideas for things to do in the area. Arthur got us a table at the Meritage restaurant when it was fully booked and we had no reservation (magic!). We just moved to CA and are going to make this gorgeous hotel a regular destination.
Excellent experience all around! My wife and I had a great time for our staycation. The valets were courteous and professional (They have free parking as well if you don't want to pay). The lobby is luxurious and grand. The rooms were clean and updated nicely. And the best part of all was the resort and pool experience! Their water features were very nice and the lazy river was refreshing and relaxing. You can literally spend the whole day on the river. I highly recommend and we will definitely return.
Stayed for a work conference. Great place! Wonderful TV with gorgeous amenities, large rooms, comfortable bed, balcony, and heat bathroom. Tremendously delicious food. My only complaint is that the internet connection was too slow to steam 4k but otherwise it was perfect. Would attend again.

Great place to stay. I had a real estate conference here, and was very pleased overall.
Vitamin D- The pool area was clean, with friendly staff services and tasty drinks. There are a variety of locations around the pool(s) to relax and unwind. The restaurants and food are also good.
Lots happening working the grounds to keeps busy.
The rooms are lovely & quiet. The grounds are so well-kept and cared for. Lazy river, huge outdoor patios with pits are awesome.
The area around the resort is loaded with things to do also.
The price is a bit high, that's the only reason I shared 4-stars.
Setting up a booth for a medical conference, my associate and I were greeted by the hotel manager. He was extremely helpful and cordial and went above and beyond the level of service I had expected. An overall superb experience and excellent resort for any conference in a beautiful setting.
The amenities are amazing. The pool area and the lazy river are really nice. Pool side bar service is great as well. The room on the first floor had a nice patio. Overall a great experience. I hope to find a reason to stay here again.
