Four Seasons Resort Scottsdale at Troon North

Groups meeting at Four Seasons Resort Scottsdale at Troon North find the facilities in perfect harmony with the desert environment. More than two dozen indoor and outdoor sites overlook the mountains of Scottsdale, Arizona, by day and the city’s twinkling lights by night.

The largest space, the Pinnacle Ballroom, embodies Southwestern elegance with its rich desert tones. Floor-to-ceiling windows in the Ironwood Foyer take in breathtaking views of nature’s majesty, while the Ironwood Ballroom honors Arizona’s first inhabitants with a Native American theme. The trellised Fountain Terrace, Troon Lawn, and spacious Ironwood Terrace invite planners to stage outdoor events year-round.

Delegates start the day in 210 casitas housed in 25 adobe buildings, all blended into the saguaro-studded landscape. The rooms feature custom furnishings, many sourced from Mexican artisans; gas-burning fireplaces; the latest technology; and generously proportioned bathrooms with soaking tubs and glass-enclosed showers.

The property’s endless diversions start with superb dining, whether in-casita, at private parties, or at the three restaurants: Talavera for American cuisine, Crescent Moon for modern Mexican fare, and Saguaro Blossom for light meals by the pool. The list of pleasures continues with drinks and conversation at the Onyx Bar & Lounge, Native American–inspired treatments at the spa, misted sunbathing by the pool, hiking and biking on 150 acres of desert trails, and golf at Troon North’s two celebrated courses right next door. There are no packages available at this time.
