Dive Into Summer at This Retro-Chic Hotel
With summer just around the corner, pack your sunglasses and swimsuit because Scottsdale, Arizona is calling your name! Things are heating up in this desert city and the retro-chic Hotel Valley Ho is the perfect place to call home base this season.
Set on 10 lush acres, the vacation vibes are on point at this midcentury modern retreat. Private balconies, terrazzo tile baths and a desert-inspired color palette create a luxurious sanctuary to wind down for the night after busy days. Summer guests can enjoy everything from live music out on the pool deck to seasonal, pineapple-inspired spa treatments. And with a location in walkable Old Town Scottsdale, all kinds of summer fun is at your fingertips! Here are five reasons we’re headed to Hotel Valley Ho—one of the best hotels in Scottsdale.
1 | Summer Poolside Live Music + Parties
Name a better duo than pool parties and summer. Hotel Valley Ho knows a thing or two about throwing epic summertime bashes. You’ll find a vibrant live music scene at the OH Pool, with a swanky playlist to pair with your cocktail as you lounge in a luxury cabana. Not to mention, there’s a lineup of live DJs spinning Friday through Sunday from March to September. Seasonal events are scattered across select weekends throughout the year with curated themes like Christmas in July. If the OH Pool is where all the action is, then Hotel Valley Ho’s OHasis Pool is the place to be for those long leisurely naps, lulled to sleep by the sound of trickling fountains. There’s no better feeling than falling asleep in the sun and waking up sun-kissed and glowing.
2 | Culinary Delights at ZuZu
Sleek, modern and elegant, with neon lighting and intricate woodwork, ZuZu isn’t your typical desert restaurant. From weekend live music and celebrity chef dinners to their famous Show Stopper Shake, there’s always something exciting happening here. For brunch, try the sharable Cinnamon Roll Bread Pudding or oversized Carne Asada Breakfast Burrito. In the evenings, chef-curated dinner specials shine, like the Lobster Carbonara and Sticky Icky Pork Spare Ribs. But, if you’re feeling bold, The Wheel dining experience is the star of the show. This playful, interactive culinary adventure features a six-course spread, with refreshing cocktails that complement select courses. Nashville Hot Chicken, Filet and a Tartare Duo are just a few sample items featured on The Wheel menu.
3 | Summer Savings!
With summer earmarked as the official season for travel, saving a few extra dollars never hurts. Designed specifically for frequent visitors who just can’t get enough of Hotel Valley Ho, the 20-30-40 Deal rewards guests for their return visits. Snag this exclusive offer before Sept. 30 for 20% off your first summer stay, plus if you come back, you can get 30% off your second and 40% off your third. Alternatively, turn your two-night stay into three with their 3rd Night Free offer!
Did someone say bach party? Grab the girls and treat the bride-to-be with Hotel Valley Ho’s Sip + Splash Bachelorette Package. This all-in-one special includes a nightly $200 food and beverage credit to cure late-night cravings, a bottle of prosecco and a round of poolside cocktails. Plus, you’ll save 10% off your massage or facial when your girl gang books six or more 60-minute treatments.
4 | Seasonal Spa Specials
Tropical cocktails, sunbathing and trips to the farmers market are on repeat this season. The only thing missing from the ultimate summer bucket list is a couple of spa treatments to maintain that healthy-girl glow. Fortunately, the VH Spa has you covered with its slice of summer specials that will leave your skin feeling hydrated and radiant from June until August—for a sweet summer discount, we might add! Their Pineapple Daiquiri Facial features Skin Script’s Pineapple Enzyme Mask that exfoliates, softens and brightens. Vitamin C, a cooling gel mask and chilled quartz stones give your skin an extra boost of collagen and antioxidants.
Pineapple is the theme of summer at this elegant spa, and their Massage + Pineapple Foot Treatment smells and feels as divine as it sounds. The full-body massage will work out any kinks and the pineapple enzyme wrap will leave your feet feeling soft, prepped and ready for sandal season.

5 | Walkability to Old Town Scottsdale
Hot girl walks will forever be a trend for us! When you’re not lounging poolside or indulging in one of Hotel Valley Ho’s signature shakes, get some steps in and stroll into Old Town Scottsdale. This iconic area has more than one neighborhood hotspot that’s worth popping into. You’ll find your midday pick-me-up at Berdena’s, a stylish craft coffee house that knows how to make a killer honey lavender latte.
Beat the summer heat with an ice cream cone from Jeni’s Splendid Ice Cream, or indulge in some retail therapy at The Mercantile of Scottsdale—an adorable boutique featuring local artisan pieces that will satisfy all your Pinterest home decor dreams.
