PHOENIX — Winter turns the Valley of the Sun into a destination, luring visitors from colder climates around the world on the warmth with the desert.

Once the searing heat of summer hits, the tourists tend to step away and also the locals turn to escape, retirement in the mountains of Flagstaff or beaches of Los Angeles.

But here's just a little secret for you personally value-conscious travelers out there: Summer is the best time and energy to get deals in the desert.

Rooms around 70 percent off, deals on spa and golf packages, resort and dining credits — all in the same luxury resorts with same stellar service others pay hundreds of dollars more for through the high season.

"The skills don't change, it's the identical result, precisely the same great location whether it's March or July," said Shane Allor, director of sales and marketing at JW Marriott Camelback Inn Resort & Spa in Scottsdale, a suburb of Phoenix. "From a value standpoint, you're that great same staff, exactly the same high service levels in the summer that you might get throughout the high season when people are paying $500-$600 every night for anyone same packages."

And incorporated into those rates are many amenities: a round of golf, 1 hour massage, $100 credit toward dining or shopping, and activities for regardless of how.

A lot of the guests who see a Valley's resort through the summer are locals searching for a short getaway, but more out-of-towners have headed to the desert lately to make use of the high-end pampering at low-end prices.

It's also an enjoyable experience for meeting planners to benefit from significantly lower rates, booking meetings at luxury resorts they may not have already been capable to afford through the winter months.
