Pampered at the Palms

Last weekend, I decided to indulge in a relaxing weekend at the Royal Palms Resort in Scottsdale, Arizona. After spending the day by the beautiful pool and lounging in the steam room, I got a classic 60-minute massage at the resort’s Alavdora Spa.

The massage room was filled with candles, aromatherapy and the most comfortable massage table. The massage was relaxing and felt great on my problematic lower back. In addition to working out the kinks in my problem areas, the massage therapist educated me on ways to relieve my back pain at home. I was extremely pleased with the service, setting and results. The simplicity, elegance and cleanliness of the resort added to my experience at the Royal Palms and Spa.

Located at the base of Camelback Mountain, between the Biltmore and Old Town Scottsdale, the Royal Palms offers citrus garden and fabulous outdoor water fountains. The resort includes 119 casitas, guestrooms and villas as well as the famous T. Cook’s Restaurant, a fitness center and meeting salons.

The Royal Palms is located at 5200 East Camelback Road in Phoenix.
