The Spa at Camelback Inn, the landmark wellness destination at JW Marriott Scottsdale Camelback Inn Resort & Spa in Paradise Valley, Arizona, is now officially open following a complete $25 million transformation, its most extensive to date.
Originally one of Marriott International’s first resort spas and a pioneer in Southwest wellness, the reimagined Spa at Camelback Inn enters a new era as a modern desert sanctuary. Guided by ariVéa, a holistic philosophy inspired by the natural rhythms of the Sonoran Desert, the experience now centers on four personalized Pathways to Well-Being: Detox, Soothe, Harmonize, and Restore. These Pathways shape everything from design elements and curated treatments to immersive wellness circuits and pathway-aligned culinary offerings.
Highlights of the reimagined Spa at Camelback Inn include:
A New Design Language: A seamless indoor-outdoor aesthetic reflecting the rugged beauty of the Sonoran Desert while encouraging deep relaxation and reconnection with nature.
The Wellness Circuit: An immersive indoor journey featuring a Himalayan salt sauna, aromatherapy steam cavern, experiential cold therapies, limestone infrared loungers, and a sunlit solarium with a vitality pool.
Wellness Waters: Launching in February, a trio of outdoor hydrotherapy experiences—one of the only fully integrated, multi-temperature hydrotherapy circuits in the region, set entirely outdoors.
Pathway-Aligned Treatments: A thoughtfully curated spa menu organized by the Pathways to Well-Being, incorporating indigenous ingredients like adobe clay and healing botanicals.
Ora Café: A new culinary centerpiece serving nutritionist-guided, pathway-specific fare and adaptogenic beverages.
