JW Marriott Tucson Starr Pass Resort & Spa gives you the Arizona desert at its best, sun-warmed landscapes, big open skies and a resort designed for easy relaxation. You’re surrounded by mountain trails, lazy-river pool days and views that stretch across the Sonoran foothills. Rooms feel calm and contemporary, the kind of place you return to after time on the golf course, in the spa or exploring Tucson’s quieter corners. Evenings carry a relaxed desert energy, dinner with Southwestern flavours, a drink on the terrace, or simply watching the sky fade to deep orange behind the hills. It’s a resort that balances activity and downtime effortlessly, offering space, comfort and a genuine sense of escape.

“We feel in love with this hotel”
Feb 04, 2026Jennifer B
This was our first visit to this hotel and we fell in love with it. It is being remodeled and although we were not in a new room, we did get upgraded to a pool facing room with a balcony. The beds and pillows were comfortable, we loved the smell of the bathroom products, and appreciated the fridge for waters. We liked the free washers and dryers on the 4th floor, the ice and water dispensers by the elevators, flavored waters by the check-in desk, and lots of recycling containers around the resort. We did the morning guided hike two mornings and both guides gave us plenty of tips on other hiking trails so two mornings we hiked the Richard Genser trailhead which is a 5-minute drive from hotel and much less crowded with hotel guests. We also took Steve’s suggestion to drive up to Mt. Lemmon which was cool to go from cacti to snow in one day – it was 8300’ elevation at the ski lodge and 50 degrees and 81 degrees when we got back to Tucson.
We ate most of our meals on the Salud terrace by a firepit or a patio heater. Don’t miss the nightly tequila toast. We also ate one meal at the Signature Grill on the patio and it was really good. We were less impressed with Passaggio and would probably skip that next time. The Salud terrace was closed one evening for a company event and one night the gemologist group meet on the terrace so get there early and plan accordingly if you plan to do the tequila toast or eat there. They did offer blankets if it was chilly out and we appreciated the Marriott staff directed smokers and vapers off the terrace.
We liked the pool and had no problems getting chairs – they did offer drink and food service poolside until 3 p.m. each day.
We walked the property several times a day down to the delivery entrance and back around the back of the hotel – 25 minute stroll on a large sidewalk. Great view of Tucson and very dark at night to enjoy the planets and stars.
We will stay again on our next trip to Tucson.
“Gorgeous”
Jan 31, 2026Gail B
We've stayed in a lot of golf resorts over the years, but this one is gorgeous and the staff is amazing. Every person, without exception, went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of. The bartender even brought a blanket for me when the doors were opened to the patio during the tequila toast, which happens each day at 5:30! The lobby is huge with an expansive view of Tucson. There are hiking trails around it too. We had a king room that was newly renovated and it was great. The water pressure was good, and the bathroom lighting was perfect. My only complaint is that the water isn't quite hot enough, but that may have been due to the continuing renovations. The room was clean, quiet and spacious, and the bed was very comfortable. I spend every day at the saltwater pool in the spa and it was dreamy. I was usually the only one there! One of the restaurants was closed Sunday through Wednesday, which was sad because I had wanted to try it, but the Salud bar, Plunge pool restaurant and the Signature restaurant were open. There's also a Starbucks which was great for a quick bite. My husband golfed and said the course was great but difficult.
“Nice remodeled room. Delicious food, wonderful views and great service .”

We got one of their remodeled rooms and it was beautiful but I do miss the wonderful bathtub. They had it beautifully decorated for Christmas. The room service was so fast I didn’t know who could be knocking on the door. It was as clean and comfortable.
