Samantha, I have recently traveled to Tucson, AZ and my experience was so enjoyable that I wanted to share it with you and other bloggers. I don’t recall Tucson featured on any of your shows and thought it would make a great segment!

The Marriott Starr Pass Resort was a JW property and a true diamond in the desert. I’m talking classy yet friendly, luxurious yet family-friendly, and fun yet intimate. Since it’s surrounded by mountain and desert land, I got to do some hiking, biking and I even went horseback riding. There are options for every skill level.

Starr Pass also has had a gorgeous spa, the Hashani Spa, with a diverse menu of services and a very educated, experienced staff. I enjoyed hot stone massage in a private outdoor area in the morning. How about that for a great escape?

The 27-hole Arnold Palmer Signature Golf Course on property is awesome. My husband said the views were some of the best he has ever seen on a golf course. We ate at all of the restaurants: Primo, Catalina Steakhouse and Signature Grill. Primo is known around town for using only the freshest, local organic ingredients. I wasn’t a believer until we ate there. The food was perfect. The chef came out to make sure everything tasted delicious, which of course it did. Catalina Steakhouse was tasty – and I’m not even a steak lover! Signature Grill has a great outdoor patio. Sitting on the patio for breakfast was relaxing and enjoyable. Salud, the pool bar/lounge, held special tequila tasting every night at 5:30. The flavor of tequila changes daily. What a great way to kick back and have some fun.

This resort is 5-star all the way around. I would highly recommend you check it out. I’m sure your audience would love it as much as we did! We love your show – you are amazing!
