"This is an older but well-cared-for time-share resort with a friendly staff and a surprising dearth of annoying sales folk." Full review

Guests here choose between studio and two- and three-bedroom units, though the 700-sq-ft studios are larger than many area hotels' standard suites and one-bedroom time-share digs.

8.0
"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.

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