Sanctuary on Camelback Mountain is a privately owned resort and spa located in Paradise Valley, Arizona. The resort, which opened in 2001, is located on 53 acres on the north face of Camelback Mountain.[1] It has 105 mountain and spa casitas as well as a collection of private homes.[2]

Sanctuary includes an Asian-inspired spa, the Elements restaurant,[3] and the Jade Bar.[4] Elements Executive Chef Beau MacMillan has been featured on several Food Network Channel shows, including Iron Chef, Worst Cooks in America, and The Next Iron Chef.[5] Jade Bar underwent a $2 million renovation in the summer of 2013 and reopened in October.[6]

In 2015, the resort renovated a group of its guestrooms and re-introduced them as a new room category called the Camelback Casitas and Suites.[7] Outdoor dining is available year-round on the elements dining deck,[8] and a private dining room, XII, is open to the kitchen.[9]
