Westroc

To ancient cultures, Camelback Mountain was a sacred place. Today, its shadows fall on a place where the human spirit is sacred. Westroc’s first venture, Sanctuary on Camelback Mountain is the end result of the transformation of a one-time celebrity tennis ranch into a unique luxury retreat, combining an enticing mixture of Asian and local influences. Located just outside Phoenix, overlooking the stunning vistas of Paradise Valley, Sanctuary offers easy transport to a blissful state of mind.

A truly un-hotel, guests can stay in a variety of casitas (small homes) nestled along the mountain and beside the spa. Each features sumptuous, modern styling and stunning panoramic views of the mountains and Valley. Other features range from outdoor balconies and kitchen alcoves to wood-burning fireplaces and private outdoor soaking tubs.

Groups and those wishing an extra measure of space and privacy can choose from a selection of luxury Mountainside Estates. These homes feature unique styling, open floor plans, multiple bedrooms, vaulted ceilings, private pools and hot tubs, gourmet kitchens, sky-lit bathrooms, and winding terraces high atop the mountain that afford breathtaking twilight views of Paradise Valley far below.

The resort’s centerpiece is Sanctuary Spa, an oasis for rejuvenation of mind and body. It features indoor and outdoor treatment rooms, a reflection pond, meditation garden, and private Watsu pool. Next door lays a state-of-the-art fitness center and movement studio. Certified instructors teach Pilates, yoga, and meditation classes, and provide fitness and nutrition consultation.

At the newly renovated elements restaurant with its cutting-edge kitchen, world-class culinary artists create sensory masterpieces from expanded seasonal menus that combine the best of local produce and ingredients with Far Eastern accents. Jade Bar and Edge offer intimate, stylish settings in which to toast beneath the stars.

For those seeking secluded respite within easy reach, we say welcome to Sanctuary.
