Carefree Hotel Guide - Hotels with Spa in Carefree, Phoenix

"First room we were given hadn’t been remodeled, which wasn’t clear when booking online that there was a difference between room types. I would highly recommend requesting one of the upgraded rooms, as the older rooms aren’t in the best condition. The property is currently partially remodeled and it seems like they’re still working through some updates around the property. We can’t wait to see everything once it’s fully finished. That said, the overall property is great. We loved both pools, and the restaurant/bar area with the large grass lawn was a highlight—our kids loved having space to run around. The water park was awesome, especially the lazy river. We also really hope they don’t get rid of the second pool in the north building—it was a great place to swim at night. It did seem like a few things were closed during our stay, but we were still able to get food and drinks by the pool without any issues. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back!"

"Service was fast and food was good"

"Adero was a great place to explore & take in the beauty of Scottsdale. The onsite restaurant was fabulous for breakfast & dinner, and the pool was beautiful."

"Was a nice surprise to have tea and coffee making facilities in the room - you don’t find this is America very often! Rooms were a touch tired but perfectly comfortable and functional "

"Overall, we had a great time. A few opportunities for improvement though: 1. We weren’t aware that if it was low occupancy, they have people order on the breakfast menu instead of having the buffet open. The only time this happened to us was on our very last morning, where we had a plane to catch. The buffet being closed was not something we accounted for so I was a little upset with this. 2. We had a leak in our ceiling above the bathroom sink. Maintenance came to fix it once, but the problem persisted. Thankfully that was only an issue for the last two full days we were there. 3. The cafe near the main pool turned me away for a beverage after 11am on a Monday morning. It was our last full day and I wasn’t able to get a drink by the pool, which was a major bummer if I’m being honest. The people at the cafe said I could walk down to the restaurant, but I was looking for the poolside drink delivery. I had mentioned it a few times to my wife leading up to going down to the pool that morning, so that too was also a bummer. Overall, we had a great time, as I mentioned. Other than those few things, we very much enjoyed our time. Thank you! "

"Resort was clean and staff were great. I am really into working out and the fitness room had everything anyone could need"

"Good stay, hard to justify the price. The staff were genuinely excellent — warm, attentive, and knowledgeable. Our Fairmont Gold room overlooking the TPC Stadium Course 6th hole was a great touch. The Gold lounge, though, was perpetually overcrowded with one coffee maker to serve everyone. At $1,000+/night, our expectations were high — and a few things fell short. On arrival, the resort was hosting a 600-person conference. Guests whose rooms weren't ready were sent to the pool — right where we were. Service collapsed; our server walked by for hours saying "I'll be right there" without ever stopping. When my wife complained, security suggested we leave. Both sides could have done better, but the resort created the situation by overbooking itself. The patio door to our room wouldn't lock on arrival, and by day two it wouldn't close at all. Two hours and multiple calls later, someone finally came — got it to close, but never to lock. We were told parts needed to be ordered. That's a real problem for a door with direct outside access to your room. The location and most of the staff were genuinely great, and a cheaper stay would've softened our reaction. But at this price, these weren't minor inconveniences — they were failures. We won't be back."
