TUCSON, May 4, 2009 – Westward Look Resort, Tucson’s premier resort property located in the awe-inspiring Sonoran Desert, is welcoming guests to explore and experience the splendor of the west first-hand through a limited-time Dynamic Desert package. Starting at $269 per night for stays during the months of June, July and August, the package saddles guests with suite-sized accommodations in newly-renovated rooms, dinner for two at the award-winning GOLD restaurant, sunset cocktails for two, continental breakfast on the GOLD terrace and exclusive tours of the resort’s 80-acre estate.
“For many, a vacation presents a unique opportunity to not only kick-back and relax, but also a chance to try something new,” said Alan Klein, General Manager of Westward Look Resort. “Westward Look Resort provides just that – a chance to really experience your vacation. With night-vision goggle tours, guided hikes and access to a professional-grade telescope, a vacation here is sure to translate into lifelong memories.”
A lavish resort nestled at the base of the Santa Catalina Mountains, Westward Look Resort provides exciting opportunities to entice guests’ senses at every turn. Through the Dynamic Desert package, guests can participate in guided nature tours, observing more than 240 species of plants including cactus, jojoba and sage. Along the way, visitors might also encounter rabbit, raccoon, coyote, roadrunner and other desert animal tracks. Night-vision goggle tours led by Resort Nature Guides allow guests to experience nocturnal nature at its best, complete with interesting factoids about the nighttime habits of desert plants and animals.
In addition to a lush desert landscape, sublime sunsets and stunning skylines, Tucson, Arizona is also considered a top destination for celestial viewing. Many of the country’s top observatories are located here. Perhaps one of the most exciting components of the Dynamic Desert package is access to the resort’s on-site Celestron 2000 telescope. Through this exclusive feature, guests can spot faraway planets and even the Milky Way galaxy, which appears as a majestic band of white light arching across the entire celestial sphere.
Guests of Westward Look Resort this summer can also take advantage of unlimited access to the resort’s many amenities, including: basketball and tennis courts, a meditation labyrinth and three pools and whirlpools. Horseback riding facilities and bike rentals also offer guests the opportunity to explore the resort’s many nature paths and trails. After a day of exploring the resort’s unique landscape, Westward Look Resort’s Sonoran Spa and two restaurants, including the award-winning, recently revamped GOLD, offer the perfect location for guests to relax and reflect.
