Fort Lauderdale is a wonderful place to discover what Florida’s resort lifestyle is all about. There is so much to do and see, you’ll want to return time and again as you uncover the multi-layered facets of this attractive and diverse area. This diversity provides a warm, welcoming and inclusive atmosphere for every lifestyle. There are endless things to do and experience, and Marriott’s beach place is an ideal base for exploring the surrounding shops, restaurants, nightlife, museums, galleries, beaches, intracoastal waterway and downtown. 

Desert Ridge is located only 30 minutes north of Phoenix in a quiet, desert community hosting an array of charming shops and restaurants, and is set alongside the JW Marriott Resort with all its amenities such as world-class spa and golfing. The desert scenery and weather make this year-round resort a desirable getaway that offers numerous activities to suit everyone. There is so much to do, but whatever you choose, it will most likely be outdoors – so indulge in the comfortable weather and enjoy the spectacular scenery! Downtown Phoenix abounds with art and culture, architecture, and much more. Day trips include places such as the Apache Trail, Montezuma’s Castle, Cliff Dwellings, and Sedona – a remarkable sightseeing experience in itself.
