Imagine coming home to the enticing fragrance and romantic warmth of a wood-burning fireplace. . . enjoying a room service breakfast on your balcony overlooking the spectacular scenery of the High Sonoran Desert. . . or sunbathing by the pool and looking up at a mountain of boulders where a waterfall trickles down through the sun-drenched rock. That's what you get at The Boulders.
The Boulders is a desert hideaway, which blends so easily into its surroundings that it seems to be part of the natural landscape. The 160 guest quarters at The Boulders are adobe casitas, each one individually styled and shaped to fit into the terrain. Each has a patio, fireplace, wet bar, and refrigerator. The casitas are all clustered conveniently around the main lodge.
The Boulders is one of the best golf resorts in the country, its two eighteen-hole courses winning Golf magazine's Gold Medal Award. But there's more than just duffing. The Boulders also has eight tennis courts, a full service spa and health center offering personalized fitness programs, and two swimming pools. Or you can go for a trek on the hiking and jogging paths. Horseback riding, jeep tours, and hot air ballooning are also available.
But you can't just play all day. You've also got to eat. The Boulders has five restaurants. The Palo Verde serves regional cuisine enhanced by the spectacular beauty of the Sonoran terrain. Situated in the main lodge, the Latilla Room has its own waterfall. The formal room has a large picture window looking out onto a cascading water-fall and boulders. Sunday brunch features mesquite-grilled specialties served outdoors. You can also enjoy meals at the Cantina del Pedregal and the Bakery Cafe. The Boulders Club has a view of the golf course and the Sonoran foothills. Live entertainment is featured in the Discovery Lounge.
The Boulders was named favorite American resort by subscribers of Hideaway Report for eleven years in a row. They say that once you've stayed at The Boulders, it stays with you forever. If you like it enough, you can buy a house in the surrounding residential development.
