    By The City of Glendale

    VAI Resort, the largest hotel and entertainment destination in Arizona, is set to open in late Spring of 2023. With the mission to bring a water oasis to the desert, VAI Resort will be the premiere daylife and nightlife destination in the country.

    VAI Resort will feature over 1,200 luxury hotel suites and rooms (originally planned for 630), a large state of the art 360-degree concert stage, 13 elevated fine dining concepts, flowing white sand beaches, and pristine Caribbean-blue water. A 52KSF island will be a center point for this unique 60-acre entertainment resort.

    Previously announced as Crystal Lagoons, VAI Resort has transformed into Arizona’s first multi-dimensional entertainment mecca.

    VAI Resort will create more than 1,800 new jobs for Glendale and have a far-reaching economic benefit for the region.

    VAI Resort showcases one of the largest 360-degree immersive concert venues in the world designed by TAIT.

    With world-class entertainment, expansive white sand beaches, luxury hotel suites, and experiential restaurants, VAI Resort is truly elevating the hospitality game. In addition, VAI also offers a 20KSF spa and wellness center, wedding chapel and more than 40KSF of flexible ballrooms and meeting spaces.

    Designed as a truly immersive playground for all ages, VAI Resort will also be home to the first Mattel Adventure Park. (Source)

    (Editor’s Note: Media sources report Fisher Industries is the new general contractor and the project is now scheduled to open next spring.)
