Drenched by the Arizona sun, the resort features a charming and intimate hotel, bedecked in rich tones and warm wood fittings. Leather chairs, exposed beams, and fireplaces are among the added touches that make Boulders stand out, along with the first class accommodation.

The resort boasts casitas, suites and villas, all of which are lavish and elegant; they are designed to ensure a sumptuous stay. Colour, design, and space are the three founding principles that have been perfectly combined at Boulders, which is undoubtedly among the highest regarded leisure or golf holiday destinations in the entire United States.

The Boulders Resort's renowned Golden Doors Spa is a haven of relaxation and revitalization, founded upon the quality of its massages, therapeutic baths and refreshing treatments. Health and lifestyle classes are scheduled frequently, including yoga, pilates, and Tai Chi instruction, unerlining the Golden Doors's status as a world-leading facility. This is complemented by the highly regarded tennis centrer on site.

Bogey's at The Boulder Club is a laid-back bar and grill for golfers, and is ideal for post-round refreshment. The Latilla is a renowned organic restaurant, whose tasting menu changes daily, and is paired with superb organic wines.

Our Recommended Courses

North Course

The North Course was designed by Jay Morrish, and affords great views of the Black Mountain. Carved through the great boulders and cacti, the North is considered by many locals to be among the most challenging in the local area, despite being relatively short at 6,811 yards. There are tees to suit golfers of every standard here, which has helped to establish Boulders as a firm favourite.

South Course

The South Course is more rugged than its neighbour, and although it was also formulated by Morrish, its character is distinctly different. Measuring 6,726 yards, the South is not long, but its slope rating of 140 underlines how challenging it can be. The signature hole is undoubtedly the 5th, with a green that is carved into a great outcrop of rocks. Playing golf in the late afternoon in Arizona is a special experience, as the sun sets behind the mountains.
