The two-story Athletic Club, which will include a tennis center, activity center, and fitness center, is expected to be complete by March 2018, while work on the golf course, which will be reconfigured from 27 to 18 holes, will begin in January 2018.
The Phoenician, a Luxury Collection Resort in Scottsdale, Ariz., will soon begin a third phase of major enhancements, Experience AZ magazine reported.
The next phase of the renovation will begin next month with the construction of a new Athletic Club, which is expected to be complete by March 2018. A 10-month redesign of the golf course, which will be reconfigured from 27 to 18 holes, will start in January 2018, Experience AZ reported.
The two-story Athletic Club, exclusively serving in-house guests, will be located near the main drive on the property’s west side. Ground-level amenities will include:
• A Tennis Center with seven tennis courts, two pickleball courts and one basketball court
• A 2,100-plus sq. ft. Activity Center with arcade, TV gaming zone, board games, shuffleboard and movie screening area, among other recreational offerings
• A retail shop
• A refreshment area, serving grab-n-go items
The second level will consist of:
• A 4,600-plus sq. ft. state-of-the-art Fitness Center with Matrix workout equipment and a movement studio with “fitness on demand” technology, providing access to hundreds of virtual classes via touch screen, from yoga to spin
• Floor-to-ceiling windows, offering dramatic views of Camelback Mountain and the resort
Under the direction of architect Phil Smith, The Phoenician Golf Course will be completely redesigned and repositioned to create a consistent profile throughout.
The Phoenician was featured in C&RB’s May 2007 and and February 2017 cover stories.
The projects follow the summer 2016 renovation of all Phoenician main building guestrooms and casitas, the remodel of The Canyon Suites at The Phoenician, and the refurbishment of the resort’s signature public areas, including the main lobby, pool complex, spa and select dining venues, currently in progress, Experience AZ reported.
“The Phoenician has always been synonymous with iconic luxury,” said General Manager Mark Vinciguerra. “Working with our owner, Host Hotels & Resorts, we continue to evolve its original vision. Through these two exciting enhancements, we once again further our commitment to providing a guest experience that is beyond expectation.”
