About us
CIVANA is a destination wellness resort located just north of Scottsdale. Our group wellness experience honors this by bringing in a piece of wellness to your corporate retreat. Ran by our private programming and wellness guides we honor your company vision by fortifying bonds, building team momentum, or by sleeping in just as much as waking up for a 6am for a Group Hike. Founded by two hospitality outsiders who both had transformative wellness experiences and wanted to share what they discovered with others, found wellness travel not approachable for their friends and family both from a price point and also the restrictive nature of most wellness resorts, so they set out to build something different. Our holistic approach to wellness is supported through our (4) pillars. Fitness & Movement, Personal Growth & Discovery, Spa and Culinary. The property itself has been restored to its mid-century modern origins following a $50 million renovation. The expansive Spa focuses on the art of healing through water. Guests feel renewed with access to innovative spa treatments, an adults-only spa salt-water pool, sundeck, and a one-of-kind therapeutic aqua therapy water circuit. CIVANA is a boutique destination where guests are able to experience healthy cuisine for all dietary needs. All CIVANA stays include 25+ unlimited access to our regularly scheduled daily wellness programming in the beautiful setting of the Sonoran Desert. CIVANA offers 144 luxury guestrooms; 15,000 square feet of indoor meeting space as well as several stunning outdoor spaces which can be used for meals, fresh-air breakouts, or locations for private programs.
