Old Town Scottsdale

Exploring Old Town Scottsdale truly affords you the opportunity to delve into everything magical the Arizona desert has to offer. Fill your days by exploring unique boutiques, appreciating art, and local jewelry created by locals, and treating yourself to treats at some of the local coffee shops and bakeries. Take time to appreciate the breathtaking sunsets that paint the desert sky before embarking on a night filled with fun and adventure. With renowned restaurants, the weekly Scottsdale ArtWalk, and the pulsing nightlife located in the Entertainment District – you’ll never find yourself without something to do. Unless of course nothing is what you’re after, in which case we highly recommend finding a picturesque outdoor seating area, a refreshing beverage in your hand, and settling in for some entertaining people-watching.

Where to Eat

Start your day off right with a caffeine fix at one of Old Town’s favorite coffee shops: Press Coffee or Cartel Coffee Lab. Armed and ready for the day, you can’t go wrong when it comes to walk-in dining options. If you’re craving some comfort food and good, old-fashioned nostalgia, stop in at Sugarbowl, an Old Town establishment that’s been around since 1958 and incidentally a rite of passage when it comes to ordering diner food and dessert. If you’re a foodie whose conscience won’t allow you to get a traditional diner burger, head to Farm & Craft for organic, gluten-free, and vegan options. Or opt instead for some of the hot dining spots with featured chefs, such as Matt Carter’s The Mission, Bernie Kantak’s Citizen Public House, or James Beard Award-winning Charleen Badman’s FnB.

Where to Play

Old Town offers an eclectic mix of local boutiques, luxury retailers, and just happens to be home to one of the country’s largest and most luxurious malls. Take a stroll down 5th Ave for some shopping or feast your eyes on some Avant-garde pieces with touring exhibitions, including a permanent installation by James Turrell, on display at the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art. For all things local and unique to Arizona, head to Sphinx Date Co. Palm & Pantry for some one-of-a-kind souvenirs for everyone at home. And when it’s time to escape the heat, Fashion Square Mall is THE PLACE to go, offering shopping, dining, and even a state-of-the-art movie theater for when you need to put your feet up.

How to Get Around Old Town Scottsdale

The beauty of Old Town Scottsdale is that it’s easy to park your vehicle and explore all of the city’s downtown hub by foot, by trolley, aboard a street-legal golf-cart taxi, by E-Bike, or Go Luxe with Go Rentals.

This is a great rental. It was well stocked, clean and in great condition. The layout is great. We were a family of 4 so everyone got their own room and bathrooms had dual vanities. There is another bathroom with shower downstairs that we did not use. This could comfortably accommodate 3 couples; 4 if wouldn't mind using the bunk bed room. The kitchen was well stocked. We only cooked one evening but kitchen had everything we needed including common spices and some olive oil. Condo had shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion, hand soap, dish soap and Keurig coffee pods. Condo is close to main part of town so we could have easily walked but Moab wasn't busy during our visit so we were able to easily find parking and drove most places. Cruiser bikes looked to be in good condition but we did not use them. The pool is closed for the winter but the hot tub worked and was well maintained. Garage at the condo was tall enough to accommodate our SUV with topper box and garage opener is included. Property management was by "Empty Spaces Vacation Rental Management." They were very professional and communication was excellent. That part of the experience exceeded a typical "host" for a VRBO. I wish they managed more properties in other locations (they manage some in Crested Butte, Havasu and Grand Mesa). I would absolutely stay at this condo again.

This property is located within waking distance to Main street downtown and is just a short drive to all things fun outdoors. It is very clean and has great amenities. Our kids loved the little play area! They felt they had their own special space away from us parents. This property really has all you need for a great vacation!

This was our first stay in a VRBO and it was exactly what we were hoping it would be. Super quick response from management, very easy process all around. Would definitely stay here again.

We were a group of two families with 4 adults and 3 children (11, 11 and 13). The house is well decorated, very clean and provided comfortable furniture for both relaxing and sleeping. There is also ample parking for up to 4 vehicles (2 car garage + 2 driveway spots). We had two cars, a RZR and trailer all of which we were able to fit at the property. The back patio overlooks a park with several trees which in my opinion is one of the best patio views in the development. Communication with the rental management agency was very clear and made that part of the experience effortless. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this property.

We’ve stayed in hotels and condos in Moab and this was our best location yet. The condo is great with enough room for friends and family to all be together and enjoy each other’s company, but with rooms and bathrooms that allow for some downtime. We chose this unit because it was right next to the pool and we had kids with us. Best choice ever. We could be cooking on the grill while the kids (older kids) could swim. The kitchen was very well stocked and there were loads of towels and even games to play. We would come back to this property again for sure.

Awesome stay for our annual family trip! At first glance, it looked small (like the yard and pool etc) but once we got going we found it to be more than enough for our family and we had quite the clan. The pool is great for families with kids because there is a large step/pad on one side where my two year old could walk around and still be in the pool with everyone else. The yard has a fun playground for toddlers, and a nice lounge area where we played games. The house was super clean and comfortable, and great for the family to hang out. Parking galore. Plenty of things we needed like towels and blankets, etc. Great hosts! The location is good too, not far from stores or attractions like the London bridge. Would absolutely stay again if we come back to Havasu!
