Baseball Spring Training! This is a great opportunity to get out and see your favorite team play in beautiful Arizona. This was also a girls’ trip my best friend and I, who happens to be a Giants fan. Luckily, their home spring training facility is in Scottsdale. This was a perfect mix of entertainment and relaxation, with sun, sports and a spa trip. This guide includes: - 6 sightseeing/activity recommendations - 3 hotel recommendations - 13 restaurant recommendations - 3 spa recommendations

Spring training is an annual even here in Scottsdale/Phoenix. Teams that begin their preseason in Arizona have stadiums scattered around the area, either in Scottsdale or a short drive away. I personally don't have a favorite team, but I do love a baseball game for nostalgia's sake. This trip was a girls' weekend away for two moms in need of a break, and my friend is a Giants fan, and luckily they happened to have a game at their stadium in Scottsdale.

In addition to the game, we took the opportunity to relax and enjoy the resort property, restaurants, architecture and food. And to wrap it all up, we checked out of our hotel room and into the spa for the day, which I highly recommend as a way to really feel relaxed on the way to the airport.

Day 1: Checkin & Sight Seeing

Getting Here:

Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport
@objectsinmotion
Ticket prices to Phoenix Sky Harbor are usually pretty affordable, even during the height of Spring Break/Spring Training season. The airport has a surprising number of lounges. If you have access make sure you take advantage of these before your flight out. I rented a car from the rental center at the airport, but Phoenix and Scottsdale are close enough to use your favorite ride share program.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
I am a Southern California native, mother of two, military spouse and travel lover currently located in Naples, Italy. I’ve lived and visited many different places and I hope that my travels will help you plan your next great adventure! My guides focus on travel that the whole family can enjoy and feature some of the great places the military has sent us, as well as our own travels. Having lived in many different places, I have local knowledge of a wide variety of places. Two of my favorite recent travels are a month long family trip to Australia and Singapore and a multi-generational Caribbean cruise. I love that some of my kids first core memories will be of our international travels. It is so heart warming to watch them make friends at a foreign playground and having an interaction with a person that doesn’t speak their same language. Now, living in Italy we have many more opportunities for travel, both throughout Europe and locally near Naples, Pompeii, and the Amalfi Coast. We have enjoyed discovering new foods, exploring language and culture. My youngest has an egg allergy that we manage so food and language intertwine often.
