Ritz-Carlton Resort at Dove Mountain

The Ritz-Carlton, Dove Mountain is one of eight hotels globally to be named to Forbes’ 2018 lists of the “Most Luxurious” hotels and spas. The golf and spa resort, which totals 310,000 SF and covers 850 acres, offers a quiet retreat tucked away in Tucson’s Sonoran Desert. The luxury five-story hotel features 227 guest rooms and 26 detached casita rooms with private patios and panoramic canyon views.

The resort includes high-end main and junior ballrooms, meeting rooms, and three premium dining options including a full-service upscale dining restaurant and a pool grill. Visitors can enjoy the full-service luxury spa with holistic treatments to relax and then visit the state-of-the-art fitness center with cardiovascular and strength training. The hotel offers 26 miles of hiking trails, tennis, and three sparkling pools—one of which includes a 205-foot water slide, the longest one in Tucson.

The hotel is a favorite destination for weddings, business travel, tradeshows, and travelers who want to enjoy luxury in a breathtaking setting in the desert. Embracing the style and feel of the desert southwest, the project’s finishes include mud adobe walls, mesquite flooring, and flagstone.
