Afar Magazine "There’s plenty to keep you busy on property, including five dining spots, but the very best way to pass the time is at Joya Spa. " Full review
Travel + Leisure "With its graceful plazas and arcaded walkways, this 35-acre retreat located at the foot of Camelback Mountain so resembles an Andalusian pueblo blanco that you’ll forget you’re in Arizona." Full review

"Mixing Spanish influences with the surrounding Sonoran Desert...stay here is certainly a break from the daily grind -the property is a bit removed from the hustle and bustle of Phoenix and Scottsdale." Full review

When you need to unwind, soak up the rays by one of the resort's three pools or book a treatment at the Joya Spa. For many visitors, the highlight of their accommodations was the in-room private patio or balcony — If you can, request a room overlooking the mountain for the best views.

Frommer's "With the red rocks of Camelback Mountain looming overhead and architecture inspired by Spain's fabled Alhambra, this resort is one of Arizona's prettiest getaways." Full review

If you like peace and quiet, ask for a room in the Bocce Garden Village (and have a bocce court right outside your door).
