Won’t be going back! They tell you they can shuttle you and then every time you need a ride they make an excuse as to why they can’t. Rude Bell people who actually make fun of people. Never returning.

I love, love Talking Stick Resort. The staff are extraordinarily helpful and cheerful. The rooms are amazing. We had the King Deluxe overlooking the pool area. We enjoyed gaming and eating breakfast in the Blue Coyote cafe. The 24-hour coffee bistro is convenient, too. They serve American fare food there as well! My VIP perk was a $25 credit for food and beverage along with a room upgrade. I would love to use the spa service, but it is quite pricey...$650 for couples 90 min massage, ouch! That aside, I choose Talking Stick for my AZ trips!

Not the friendliest staff at check in and players club. Also, heads up, they charge your card (pending status) for the whole thing $50/day (refundable) so if you need the cash for gambling, be sure to give them another credit card! The facility, room, and food were fabulous though! Had a great time!

Great spot for 50th birthday party! Has something for everyone. Spa, golf, casino, pool. It’s a pretty pricey hotel for things, but if you’re having a big celebration it’s fun for a few days.

Checking in on Saturday. Talking Stick email us at 2:55 PM and said that the room was ready. We got there at 3:35 to check in and the lady at the front desk said they we're sold out for the night and our room wasn't ready. Check in time is at four o'clock and the room might be ready after that. She was not very helpful and very rude.
