Golf Vacations to Arizona
Tee off and experience all that Arizona has to offer
Arizona golf packages have plenty to offer, whether you’re here for the fairways, the scenery, or the amenities provided by golf resorts here. Best known for the picturesque Grand Canyon, the 1,450-mile-long Colorado River, and its cactus-filled national parks, Arizona is an understated golfer’s paradise.
Embarking on an Arizona golf vacation means you’ll have the choice of over 370 courses, with 250 of these in the Phoenix-Scottsdale mecca.
With awe-inspiring views, unique terrain, and world-class courses, the challenge will be choosing which resorts to visit on your Arizona golf trip. While Phoenix is the capital, the center of most golf vacations in Arizona is Scottsdale. Here, you’ll find luxury golf resorts, a year-round warm climate, and desert courses such as Grayhawk and TPC Scottsdale.
There’s so much to enjoy on a Scottsdale golf tour. After a day on the course, take a short drive to the iconic Grand Canyon, or visit Old Town Scottsdale and immerse yourself amongst the 1920s architecture and world-class attractions.
“Nowhere on this planet is the desert as fascinating as it is in Arizona”

The best golf in Arizona
The golfing action is centered around Scottsdale and Phoenix, but despite its tricky terrain, every corner of The Grand Canyon State offers an abundance of world-class courses to play. From Tuba City all the way down to Tucson, there are plenty of incredible golf courses in Arizona to choose from.
Scottsdale
When it comes to golf vacations, Scottsdale is one for the bucket list. The city, just outside of Phoenix, lives and breathes golf. Think pristine fairways, polished greens, and unrivaled views. Scottsdale really has got it all – including a PGA course.
Stadium Course at TPC Scottsdale is Arizona’s best-known golf course, home to the Phoenix PGA Tour and offering a par 71 experience. Other must-play golf courses in Scottsdale include We-Ko-Pa, Boulders, Grayhawk, Troon North, Kierland, Old Town, and Phoenician.
Phoenix
Situated West of Scottsdale, the wider Phoenix area completes the Scottsdale-Phoenix golf Mecca and offers an array of world-class courses in its own right. Among the best golf courses in the Phoenix area are Estrella, Wigwam, Quintero, Ocotillo, and AK-Chin Southern Dunes.
What makes golfing in Arizona Special?
Arizona’s golf courses span the depths of the desert to the foothills of its majestic mountain ranges. It truly does offer some of the most spectacular views around, but don’t forget to pack your sunglasses. The state boasts around 350 days of sunshine a year.
Often dubbed “The Grand Canyon State”, The Grand Canyon National Park is one of the 7 Natural Wonders of the World. A trip to the steep-sided canyon is an absolute must during your golf vacation in Arizona, but there’s an entire state waiting to be explored. There are 22 national parks across the state and the Sonoran Desert offers the unique experience of being the only place in the world to watch the iconic saguaro cactus grow.
Aside from its natural beauty, Arizona is also home to over 100 wineries producing 22 varieties of wine. It also hosts 3 of the best destination spas in the world – two in Tucson and one in Sedona.
