Lee & Associates, which specializes in providing exceptional commercial brokerage services of industrial, office, investment, multifamily, retail, and land, is pleased to announce the landmark sale of The Scottsdale Plaza Resort, LLC. The buyer is a partnership between the premier hospitality management company, Highgate and Rockpoint Group.

Brent Moser, Mike Sutton and Craig Coppola, Principals at Lee & Associates, represented The Scottsdale Plaza Resort in the transaction.

The property closed on June 30, 2021 and is located at 7200 N. Scottsdale Rd. in Paradise Valley, Arizona. The resort comprises 38 acres and boasts 404 rooms, over 50,000 square feet of event space, 5 pools, a fitness center, tennis court, salon and spa, and outdoor event and wedding space.

The first phase of Scottsdale Plaza Resort was built in 1976, with the final portion completed in the mid 80’s. It is one of the last independently owned and operated resorts in Arizona. With a long-standing history in Scottsdale, the resort and its devoted team provide outstanding experiences for guests.

While COVID-19 was challenging for The Scottsdale Plaza Resort and the hospitality industry as a whole,being fully independent allowed the resort to pivot and meet the daily changes –and as a result, the resort was able to remain open throughout the pandemic.

“Coming out of the pandemic, we understood a number of benefits and risks with remaining independently owned and operated. While short term we were very effective in navigating through the crisis, our long-term goals for continued redevelopment were hindered,” said President and CEO David Lunt of The Scottsdale Plaza Resort. “The best way to continue our long-term goals and carry on the legacy was to find an owner that would appreciate our history and continue the legacy that John Dawson, the former owner of The Scottsdale Plaza Resort, created.”
