Last weekend I escaped to Scottsdale for a long weekend to visit friends and recharge.
It was my first time in the Scottsdale/Phoenix area that I can remember, so I didn’t know what to expect. I ended up having a wonderful time.
The city surprised me with a variety of excellent restaurants, charming shops, and several attractive hotel options—perfect for a short getaway.
If you’re planning a trip to the Scottsdale or Phoenix area, here are my recommendations from a four-day visit, based entirely on places we ate, shopped, and stayed.
Warning: expect lots of colorful photos!
