The Perks

Four Seasons Preferred Partner benefits at Four Seasons Scottsdale

The program benefits are the same at every hotel. What changes is what they are worth. This is how each one works at this property.

01

Breakfast for two at Proof

Served at Proof, the all-day American restaurant, from 6:30 to 11:30 am on weekdays, and through the longer weekend brunch until 2:00 pm on Saturdays and Sundays. Otherwise breakfast is extra.

02

$100 hotel credit, $200 in suites

One credit per stay for dining or The Spa. Put it towards dinner at Talavera, sunset cocktails at Onyx, or the Nopal Massage, which uses warm gel from the prickly pear cactus.

03

Upgrade priority

Every casita is 45 to 46 sq m (480 to 500 sq ft), so an upgrade buys a better view or outdoor space: from a Deluxe Casita towards a casita with a wider view or a firepit patio, or into a plunge pool suite when one is free.

04

Early check-in and late checkout

Priority for both. With a 4:00 pm check-in, it decides whether a morning arrival can play golf first. The resort only guarantees an early room if the night before is booked, so we request it in advance.

05

VIP recognition

A welcome amenity and a VIP note on the reservation. We pass on tee-time requests, children's ages, pets and celebrations.

06

Combines with Four Seasons offers

The benefits apply on top of the Advance Purchase rate, up to 10 percent off, and the Arizona resident rate, 15 percent off with a resort credit and parking. We also price the Troon North Golf Retreat package against them.

Advisor Picks

Best rooms to book at Four Seasons Scottsdale

All rooms are casitas spread across a desert hillside, each with a kiva fireplace, a balcony or patio and a deep soaking tub.

The room to book

Premier Casita Room

46 sq m (500 sq ft) on the ground or second floor, with views of the desert, the mountain peaks or the pool, and a furnished patio with its own flat-screen television.

Desert evenings

Patio Firepit Casita Room

The same size on the ground floor, with a private firepit on the patio facing the boulder formations of the peaks. Desert nights are cool for much of the year, so the fire gets real use.

A private pool

Kiva Plunge Pool Suite

93 sq m (1,000 sq ft) on the ground floor, with a heated plunge pool, chaise lounges, a fire feature and an outdoor garden shower. The Oasis Plunge Pool Suite is the same size, with a chiminea fireplace on the patio.

Families and golf groups

Pinnacle Three-Bedroom Suite

The largest suite, 279 sq m (3,000 sq ft), with two king beds and two doubles for up to six adults and three children. The Jerome Two-Bedroom Suite, 186 sq m (2,000 sq ft), sleeps six.

Before You Go

Advisor tips for Four Seasons Scottsdale

01

Decide between nearer and higher

The 25 casita buildings climb a slope, and some are a longer walk from the lobby and pool than others. Ground-floor patios are easiest with children and pets; upper floors have wider views. Tell us which matters.

02

Book tee times when you book the room

Troon North Golf Club is not part of the resort. Guests get preferred access to its Monument and Pinnacle courses, but green fees are separate and tee times go through the club. Children under 15 play free after 3:00 pm with a paying adult.

03

Hike Pinnacle Peak at sunrise

The trailhead is about a 10-minute walk from the resort, so there is no need to drive. From May to September, go at first light; the concierge hands out a day pack with water and snacks for the walk.

04

Talavera is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays

The signature restaurant serves dinner only, Wednesday to Sunday. For a short stay early in the week, plan the Talavera night first, and reserve weekend tables when you book in winter and spring.

05

Plan the car before you land

North Scottsdale is spread out, and guests report long waits for rideshares out here. A rental with self-parking costs less per night than valet, while golfers can rely on the free Rivian shuttle to Troon North, first come, first served.

Timing

When to visit Four Seasons Scottsdale

Scottsdale is a winter and spring destination, and the resort's rates follow the temperature.

Warm, dry days and cool nights, peak golf season and the desert in bloom in spring. The busiest and most expensive months, so book rooms, tee times and Talavera early.
May to September
Very hot, regularly above 40°C (104°F), with monsoon storms in late summer. Rates fall to their lowest, and days revolve around the pools and early-morning hikes.
October to December

Four Seasons Scottsdale FAQs

What is the best way to book Four Seasons Resort Scottsdale at Troon North?

The best way to book Four Seasons Resort Scottsdale at Troon North is through a Four Seasons Preferred Partner travel advisor. The advisor books the official Four Seasons rate, with no booking fees, and the reservation adds daily breakfast for two, a $100 hotel credit and upgrade priority.

What are the Four Seasons Preferred Partner benefits at Four Seasons Scottsdale in 2026?

Daily breakfast for two per bedroom at Proof, a $100 hotel credit per stay ($200 in suites), a one-category upgrade when available at check-in, priority for early check-in and late checkout, and a welcome amenity with VIP recognition. The benefits combine with the resort's own offers, such as Advance Purchase.

Is Four Seasons Preferred Partner an official Four Seasons program?

Yes. Four Seasons Preferred Partner is Four Seasons' own program for invited travel advisors. The benefits are confirmed by the resort on the reservation, not added by a third party, and the rate is the official rate Four Seasons publishes.

Travel advisor vs Amex FHR vs booking direct: which is best for Four Seasons Scottsdale?

A Four Seasons Preferred Partner advisor and Amex Fine Hotels + Resorts (FHR) both add breakfast for two, a $100 credit and upgrade priority at Four Seasons Scottsdale. FHR also guarantees 4:00 pm checkout, but needs an Amex Platinum or Centurion card and a booking through Amex Travel. Preferred Partner needs no card, doubles the credit to $200 in suites and adds VIP recognition. Virtuoso advisors can book Four Seasons Scottsdale with the same core benefits, but Preferred Partner is Four Seasons' own in-house program, and its bookings get higher priority for upgrades and recognition. Booking direct at fourseasons.com costs the same and adds none of these, because Four Seasons has no points programme.

Can guests at Four Seasons Scottsdale play Troon North Golf Club?

Yes. Troon North is a separate club, but resort guests get preferred access to both 18-hole courses, Monument and Pinnacle, by Tom Weiskopf. The concierge books tee times before arrival, and a free Rivian shuttle covers the five-minute drive. Green fees, clubs and forecaddies are paid separately.

Which rooms at Four Seasons Scottsdale have a private plunge pool?

The Kiva and Oasis Plunge Pool Suites, both 93 sq m (1,000 sq ft) on the ground floor with a heated pool on the patio, and the two-bedroom Plunge Pool Suite, 186 sq m (2,000 sq ft). No casita has its own pool; the Patio Firepit Casita has a firepit instead.

Can you hike Pinnacle Peak from Four Seasons Scottsdale?

Yes. The Pinnacle Peak Park trailhead is about a 10-minute walk from the resort, and the moderate trail through the 60-hectare (150-acre) park takes around two and a half hours on the guided hike. Start early in summer, and carry plenty of water.

Can I bring my dog to Four Seasons Scottsdale at Troon North?

Yes. The resort accepts dogs and cats weighing up to 30 lb (14 kg), with a limit of two per casita. Ask for a ground-floor casita with a patio for easy access to the desert paths, and tell us in advance so the resort can prepare for your pet.

Does it cost more to book Four Seasons Scottsdale through Four Seasons Preferred Partner?

No. The Four Seasons Preferred Partner rate matches the rate the hotel publishes itself, and we charge no booking fees. The benefits are added at no extra cost.

Can Four Seasons Preferred Partner benefits be added to a Four Seasons Scottsdale booking I have already made?

Usually, yes, if you booked directly with the hotel. Send us your confirmation and the benefits can be added with the dates, rate, room type and cancellation policy unchanged. Bookings made through an online travel agency cannot be moved.
