Meridian CondoResorts

The family-friendly Meridian CondoResorts is composed of 50 condos, set within an apartment complex in northeastern Scottsdale (so you'll be sharing your stay with permanent residents). Golf is the main draw here, with golf packages available to suit all skill levels at many local courses. (There are dozens in the surrounding area.)The spacious condos offer all the amenities of home, including full kitchens, washers, and dryers. The rooms are clean and adequate, but parts of the 1980s-style interior feel worn. Outside, the grounds are nicely groomed with barbecues and picnic tables set beneath shady ramadas. The pool is huge, and features waterfalls and a sand beach, along with numerous lounge chairs and two Jacuzzis.
