Desert Sunset in the shadow

Plenty to Keep You Busy

Retreat to a Resort Near National Parks + Endless Local Attractions

From Desert Trails to Grand Canyons

Make Kimpton Miralina your launchpad for discovery. Start nearby with Camelback’s challenging, fast ascending trails, or explore architectural icons like Frank Lloyd Wright’s Taliesin West Head north for a day trip to Sedona’s red rocks or the slot canyons of Antelope Canyons, or venture farther to the Grand Canyon to reset your sense of scale. Or instead stay local for culture and play at places like the Phoenix Art Museum the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art (don’t miss local light artist James Turrell’s mind-messing Knight Rise, inspiration for our own Desert Reveries stargazing oculi), spring training at Salt River Fields, or family favorites like the OdySea Aquarium and Butterfly Wonderland. As night falls, stargazers can chase clear skies across the Sonoran Desert or simply look up from Miralina’s terraces to watch the Milky Way move across the sky. Whether you’re chasing sunrise views or seeking cultural highlights, the Sonoran landscape makes every journey unforgettable.
