Here, mother nature looks good from all angles, including from your hotel room window or private terrace.  

Whether you’re in Tucson for business or fun (or a bit of both), we’ve got spacious rooms and suites designed for the task, as well as for some all-important relaxation. Yes, your room has a big desk and ergonomic chair, but there’s also an oversized soaking tub ready for the moment the work is done and you want to unwind.

Inside Scoop

At Loews Ventana Canyon, you can walk out the back doors and step into the natural beauty of the Sonoran desert. Inspired by nature and the surrounding saguaro cactus, architect John Hill constructed the resort to blend into the southwestern landscape.

If you appreciate the serenity of the outdoors, you’ll love spending an afternoon exploring miles of hiking trails as far as the eye can see. Golf fan? You’ll want to play a round of golf on one of our two PGA, Tom Fazio-designed courses. Or perhaps a morning game of tennis is more your speed. Here, you can immerse yourself in the hotel’s history with a tour of the grounds. Afterwards, enjoy a swim in our two heated pools or a soak in the Jacuzzi, then recline on our luxurious pool deck and take in the spectacular scenery all around you.

Flying V Bar & Grill

Executive Chef Ken Harvey has created a delicious menu for you to savor indoors in our rustic dining room, in front of the cozy fireplace—or outdoors on our patio, surrounded by magnificent views.

Whatever you order, you’ll see that a deep passion for Southwestern food is the main ingredient at the Flying V Bar & Grill, at The Loews Ventana Canyon.
