Spring Break is over and all have returned to their homes and are back into their routines.
We always enjoy time spent with our children and their families. We especially appreciate the families who live in the Phoenix area who turn their lives upside down to spend time with us. We love each one of you. We look forward to seeing you the week of the 4th of July and we'll be back at the Phoenician in August.


*Charles Keating III built the Phoenician in the early 70s but was sent to prison for 10 years after being convicted of fraud and racketeering for the failure of Lincoln Savings and Loan in Orange County California He was released after five years and allowed to attend the 1976 Olympics where his son won 5th place in swimming.

The Phoenician is a 5 star hotel. Last summer President Obama stayed in the Canyon Suites after his trip to the Grand Canyon. The hotel sits on 250 acres. We highly recommend this beautiful resort.

  1. This is a great combination. A little bit of history combined with the Arizona Ellis family update.
    Jenny and Charles are a dynamic duo. I love the food, flowers, and children that these two have created.
