Scottsdale, AZ

Are you looking for a place with warm temperatures and a to-die-for party scene? Then Scottsdale, Arizona is perfect for you. Even during the winter months temperatures here sit at around 70F, meaning you can count on taking part in many activities without bundling up before you leave your hotel or Airbnb.

We highly recommend you start off with hiking the McDowell Sonoran Preserve to experience a stunning desert vista without melting under the heat. Remember, Scottsdale also has many parks if you’re into more leisurely activities such as slow walks and picnics.

If you’re visiting in January, make sure you don’t miss the Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Event. In February there’s the Arabian Horse Show to look forward to and in March there are plenty of Spring Training baseball games going on.

And if this New York Times quote won’t convince you, we don’t know what will “a desert version of Miami’s South Beach.”
