🌵Andrew Kolikoff🌵December 13, 2014Pretty, but in my opinion, the designers were more successful in creating a brilliant & cozy event & convention center rather than a true resort. Very large & spacious and some nice restaurants too!
Bonus H.December 6, 2014Very relaxing....great HEATED pool (cooled in the summer). Holiday activities with letters to santa and free cookie making with pastry chefs!

Lana VenturaOctober 5, 2015One of the best JW Marriott by far. Breakfast is truly amazing with a lot of variety. Cocktails are excellent. Great ambiance at night: upscale but not too calm. Awesome gateaway!Definitely worth it!
George ArgiriouMarch 1, 2013Look into the Griffin Club. It's $75.00 a day per person for the length of your stay but well worth it. Open bar from 4-11 every day, breakfast, lunch, free wifi, access to the spa and jacuzzi, etc...
Kayla YoungNovember 18, 2013By far my favorite resort in the city! Great for a staycation or for visiting family members to stay at. Lots to do with restraunts near!
Colette O'BrienSeptember 22, 2014The luxurious comfortable bed and peace and quiet was just what I needed after a long journey from Scotland
Gabs MMarch 6, 2015Such a pretty hotel! Lazy river, pools, golf and spa. Everything you need for a great vacation!
Michael Antonio CanganelliDecember 28, 2014The Pool Bar food, drinks and staff were all very enjoyable!- Suhay OthmanMarch 20, 2013Wow! What a huge resort like a small town ! Impressed by the well- looked after fields. Good conference service but outrageous Valet parking !
Drea CastroJanuary 18, 2011Roy's has incredible food! The lazy pool is great too!! Love this place :) one of the prettiest hotel properties- event staff is great if u are planning a corporate event here- Host an event here. The conference service staff are the best in the business! They are a Pepsi hotel, but brought in Coke products for our Diet Coke loving employees.
Kevin SlavinApril 10, 2013There is a woman here named Shirley who made sure I was alright when she realized I'd got the flu. Went way above and beyond, this is very unusual and much appreciated.
Alexandre MunhozMarch 9, 2023Food is outstanding here which is highly unusual for those big chain event hotels.
Ideal spot for a convention - has huge convention center. Rooms are quiet.
The Lazy River is the best! Fabulous grounds with palm trees and desert landscaping are beautiful.- Gotta love this big and beautiful Spa! Serenity pool = awesome. Healthy and adult libations = outstanding. Massage therapy like no other = Happy, happy, happy. Read more

BEAUTIFUL resort but the walls are PAPER thin, you can hear the people in the room next to you talking.. Creepy. Ask for a private room without neighbors !!
TRAVEL SQUIRRELSeptember 2, 2011Lazy river is amazing!! Make sure to try the free fruit water by the marketplace yummy
The jury's in - this is Disney in the Desert. It's a good thing they're paying me to stay here!
- You had me a free laundry. 4th floor, detergent and everything!
Kathryne ShellerNovember 18, 2011Nice venue! Great fitness center in the spa and the bunnies on the ballroom lawn are delightful.
Lauren MarieMarch 8, 2011Be sure to check out the amazing spa!! Great fitness area and fitness classes!
Deidra BNovember 16, 2013Be prepared to pay $10 for valet parking (Cash only)! Also, even if you get it validated, they only take $5 dollars off! :-/

Much nicer than the Canyon Villas also on the property.
