Arizona’s first Grand Hyatt is opening this October

With a phased full property renovation under way, Hyatt Regency Scottsdale Resort & Spa at Gainey Ranch expects to unveil its highly anticipated $115 million property-wide renovation and rebrand to Grand Hyatt Scottsdale Resort in early October 2024, marking the first Grand Hyatt hotel in Arizona.

Guests can choose from various room types to suit their needs, ranging from residential-style luxury casitas to king and queen bed accommodations and accessible rooms. Every guest room on property features a multi-purpose living space, a spa-inspired bathroom, and a private balcony or patio.

Optimal for groups of friends and families, the resort’s casitas offer separate living spaces for entertaining and gathering. They are also equipped with a kitchenette and dual bathrooms with sweeping views of the resort’s pool and surrounding golf course.

Culinary and more

Come October, the resort will debut four new food and beverage concepts – La Zozzona (Modern Italian Chophouse), Tiki Taka (global small plates), Mesa Centrale (Southwestern grill), and Grand Vista Lounge (lobby bar). The property has already introduced two new poolside concepts – Sandbar and H2Oasis.

The restaurants are spearheaded by celebrated chef and James Beard nominated cookbook author, Richard Blais.

Outside, guests will uncover a new aquatic wonderland with the resort’s upgraded 10-acre destination pool complex and expanded cabanas, offering a perfect blend of relaxation, excitement, and entertainment for visitors of all ages.

The 2.5-acre outdoor oasis features 10 unique swimming pools and a pristine sand beach. At the heart of the complex stands a thrilling three-story, high-speed waterslide, promising excitement for adventure enthusiasts of all ages, while a tranquil whirlpool spa offers a haven for relaxation seekers. For those looking for more activities, a beachside putting green provides a novel touch to this already exceptional escape.
