Below are highly recommended condo/condo‑style options for a Scottsdale golf vacation, grouped by area and type (luxury, resort/onsite golf access, and value/group rentals). I’ve included why each is good for golf, typical amenities, and booking tips.
Top picks
- Westin Kierland Villas — Kierland / North Scottsdale (resort condos, great for groups)
- Why: Villas attached to The Westin Kierland Resort give easy access to Kierland Golf Club and the resort’s concierge for tee times, plus pools and full villa kitchens — convenient if you’re traveling with a group. Good balance of resort services and condo space. (expedia.com)
- Four Seasons Residence Club Scottsdale at Troon North — Troon North / high‑end North Scottsdale
- Why: Luxury residences near Troon North Golf Club with Four Seasons service and mountain views — ideal if you want premium lodging with easy access to one of Scottsdale’s top courses. Great for players seeking upscale comfort and on‑site/resort concierge help with bookings. (buyatimeshare.com)
- The Golf Villas / vacation condos near Troon North & Boulders — North Scottsdale (golf‑centric rentals)
- Why: Multiple condo complexes and private villas market themselves specifically to golfers because they’re minutes from Troon North, The Boulders, Grayhawk and other premier courses — many hosts offer golf packages or coordinate tee times. Good choice when your main goal is to play multiple top courses. (apps.VRBO.com)
- TPC Scottsdale / Old Town Scottsdale condos & vacation homes
- Why: If you want to play TPC Scottsdale (Champions/Stadium) or be in the action for the Waste Management Phoenix Open (if visiting in February), Old Town and nearby neighborhoods offer condos and rentals within short drives. Great if you want nightlife and restaurants after golf. (Search many VRBO/Airbnb listings in the TPC/Old Town area.) (apps.VRBO.com)
- The Boulders & Boulders Resort area condos/villas — Carefree / North Scottsdale (resort + private rentals)
- Why: The Boulders is a golf resort area (two highly rated courses). You’ll find resort suites plus private condos and villas with quick access to the course and desert views — excellent for small groups who want both golf and a quieter luxury setting. (apps.VRBO.com)
Other solid options
- Grayhawk/Scottsdale Ranch condos — close to Grayhawk Golf Club and plenty of public courses.
- Westin/Kierland and other resort villa programs (Marriott, Westin, etc.) — combine condo space with resort golf access and booking help. (VRBO.com)
How to choose the best condo for your golf trip
- Pick your primary course area: North Scottsdale (Troon North, Boulders, Grayhawk) for the “best courses” and mountain views; Kierland/Scottsdale Airpark for a central location with several nearby courses; Old Town for nightlife + TPC access.
- Look for rentals that explicitly mention golf partnerships, shuttle/tee‑time booking, or included golf packages — many hosts or tour operators offer multi‑round packages that bundle lodging + tee times and can save time and money. (golftroop.com)
- Amenities to prioritize: secure golf club storage, garage or parking for a rental car, wet bar/kitchen (for groups), hot tub/pool, and proximity (drive time) to the courses you plan to play.
- Book early for peak season (late fall → spring). February (Waste Management Phoenix Open) and winter high season fill quickly and rates rise.
- If you need a golf‑centric itinerary, consider a golf package operator that pairs condos with rounds (they can often get tee times and coordinate transfers). (golftroop.com)
Practical booking tips
- Use VRBO/Booking/Expedia and search filters for “condo” + “golf” + the course name (e.g., “Troon North condo”) to find dedicated golfer rentals. (apps.VRBO.com)
- Check reviews for comments about ease of reaching courses, parking for golf clubs, and whether the host helped with tee times.
- Verify cancellation and minimum‑night policies (some properties have seasonal minimums).
- If you want concierge help with tee times, favor resort‑run residences (Four Seasons, Westin, Westin Kierland Villas, etc.) or hosts that advertise golf packages.
Would you like a shortlist narrowed by budget, party size, or which specific golf courses you want to play (e.g., Troon North, TPC Scottsdale, The Boulders)? I can pull current condo listings and compare availability and nightly rates for the exact dates you’re considering.
