Marriott's Canyon Villas - Phoenix, Arizona

Eldon M.

The Marriott Canyon Villas truly surprised me. I've stayed in many high end hotels... and this place isn't the newest, exotic or luxurious... however the energy here just feels really good. The colors, layouts, sizes of the buildings, rooms, ceiling height and areas feel just right. Open and airy, with water features to down out road noise, beautiful pools and hot tubs. Staff was great, seemed happy, personable, and communicated well with each other as when I was directed to the lost and found, they were already awaiting with my belongings. We felt so at home in our room and the grounds... we both had feelings we would miss this place. There is just something about it. Thank you for the wonderful stay.

We have stayed at Marriott Canyon Villas multiple times. We love the area and the resort is full of wonderful options for their guests. The pool water is always warm and the entertainment offered in the evenings is very enjoyable. They have puzzles to barrow as well as books to share at the front desk area. We used the outdoor grills and fire pits many nights. The pool area even has a large fire pit with TV and free standing heaters. Our family enjoyed corn hole, pickleball, and ping pong. The food/drinks at the pool area are reasonably priced and quite delicious. Our only difference from last year is that we didn’t have to scan our card to get in. I feel more secure when resorts are gated and monitored.

I travel ALL the time - a million miler on 2 airlines. Stay at a lot of hotels. This was one of the most unpleasant stays I've had in a long time. SO freaking loud. There were kids/people upstairs that - no joke - jumped off of beds and ran non-stop across their floor/our ceiling for the whole week we've been here. Had scooters going up and down the hallway outside. Most inconsiderate people ever. The floors are HOLLOW - you hear everything here. They ran a bath late one night and you could hear it filling the whole time - and since the tub is right by the headboard with no sound barrier, it was loud. THEN, the setup outside is bad - ping pong, shuffleboard, etc. in between buildings so people are right outside the door being loud all day and night and you have to keep curtains closed because they are close enough to see in. Supposed to close at 9pm but the management doesn't do anything to promote that - they leave all of the lights on and leave paddles etc available. People playing outside the bedroom windew until 11pm or so, had to call front desk to ask them to move the people along. A very simple solution - turn off the lights in the area at 9pm. If you like a little peace and quiet or simply to be able to sleep at night, don't stay here and don't buy here. They layouts are good for extended stay but not sleeping and constant running of kids above us kind of ruined the Christmas relaxation and rest. Won't be here again for sure.

Have stayed at several Marriott properties over the years and very pleased with this one. Beautiful property and the nicest and helpful staff you will ever know. Only wish is that they would have a restaurant on site but the food at the pool bar is excellent.

Saved by a broken water main. Only spent one night, but were able to cancel the remaining days with no penalty. Just an awful room. Cheap remodel, but still dated. Claustrophobic and smelled like an ashtray. Broken down bed with third world bed linens and pillows. Won’t trust TripAdvisor again. 4.5 stars, Marriott must be paying bots to write positive reviews.

We were excited to hear about the relaxation pool h sounded nice since it's my birthday. We're there now...it was great! Then about 5:30 pm a group showed up with their cocktails, said to each other that they knew it was a quiet place and proceeded to talk and laugh loudly. Discussions about their union negotiations, job issues, etc., including f-bomb punctuation. No security anywhere in sight, except a guy cleaning up a little before they came, and can't find a number to text to. I'm hesitant to call the desk within earshot due to retaliation because they seem like they are drunk and might be hostile. They are talking about sending someone for more drinks. Oh no😭

Stayed in 2 adjoining rooms, the space was great: full kitchen, 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths.
There were a few issues, including a washing machine drain hose which leaked all over the kitchen.. the staff came promptly to fix / clean it up. Then, there was a water main issue and we lost water for a number of hours.

However, the hotel is in a great location, very close to highway / shopping centre Desert Ridge. Old town Scottsdale ~20 mins drive.

The lobby was quite small. Lots of activities to do within the hotel, pools, volleyball, table tennis, gym etc.

Can't wait to go back, it's very quiet and peaceful. Rooms and property are very clean. The main pool and the Deck are the highlights, except if you play golf ⛳️. Different daily activities for kids , drinks and food specials.
