Property
Westward Look started as Tucson’s first resort and continues to be one of its best with its stunning grounds, amenities galore, and recently remodeled rooms. Set on 80 acres, this resort manages to provide something for everyone from horseback riding in the desert to rejuvenating at their Sonoran Spa. Staying in one of these 241 guest rooms feels more like visiting a friend’s home than crashing at a hotel.

immaculate grounds and hacienda style architecture.
