Spa Profile: The Phoenician Spa

The Phoenician Spa is a luxurious retreat located at The Phoenician, A Luxury Collection Resort, Scottsdale in Arizona.

The Phoenician, A Luxury Collection Resort, Scottsdale is Arizona's premiere luxury resort, so it’s no surprise that the property’s award-winning spa is the highlight of any visit. Overlooking the majestic Camelback Mountain, The Phoenician Spa is nearly 40,000 square-feet and is a must during a trip to Scottsdale.

The Legend of the Phoenix is one of an iconic creature who rises from its ashes, stronger and more beautiful than before. Guests are invited to the spa to be renewed and transformed by their experience, much like the mythical Phoenix.

We met with Director of Spa, Sheryl McCormick, who gave us insight into all that The Phoenician Spa has to offer including amenities, her favorite treatments, and more.

At 80 minutes, the experience is 100% natural and vegan. Crystals and gem stones are placed around the body for healing energy. The service includes a gem polish exfoliation, enzyme peel, rose quartz gem clay application, and orange blossom oxygen infusion—finished off with golden ice globes over a collagen mask.
