Wake Up. Walk Outside. Play Quintero.
Most stay and play golf packages in Arizona put you in a hotel miles from the course. At Quintero, you walk out your door and you are already there. Your casita is on the property. The first tee is steps away. The desert is quiet. The round starts before you reach for a club.
Quintero is one of the only public championship golf courses in Arizona with luxury on-site lodging right next to the course. Rees Jones design, with bentgrass greens at elevation, and private accommodations within the property. It is the most complete golf getaway in the Southwest.
