Fodor's Review:

In a town where luxurious, expensive resorts are the rule, the Phoenician still stands apart, primarily in the realm of service. The gilded, marbled lobby with towering fountains is the backdrop for the $25 million fine art collection. Large rooms, in the main building and outer-lying casitas are decorated with elegant 1960s furniture and have private patios and oversize marble bathrooms. There's a secluded tennis garden and 27 holes of premier golf. The Centre for Well Being Spa has a meditation atrium and a pool lined with mother-of-pearl tiles where you can drift off to another world. Afterward, you can take in a sophisticated afternoon tea, or save your energy and money for a night at Mary Elaine's ($$$$), one of the finest (and most expensive) restaurants in the state.

Excellent service and accomodations

My husband and I recently stayed at the Phoenician for a long weekend. The service was the best we have had at any hotel.
