The verdict
Our verdict
Worth it, if
- Typical highs 71–81°F, lows near 53°F, good weather for desert hikes
- Orange Tree Resort suite, rated 9.1 from 284 reviews, $177 a night
- Fare is $276 per person, $80 below the highest we saw
The catch: The Frontier flight has one stop and takes 8h 10m out, and a checked bag is about $240 for two, which isn't in the total.
Worth it if you'll trade a long one-stop day for a warm desert week; skip it if you need a nonstop.
Worth it if a one-stop flight doesn't bother you: $1,793 for two, all in, covers the Frontier fare at $552 plus 7 nights at Orange Tree Resort at $1,241, with taxes and fees included. You leave Saturday, Nov 14 and come home Saturday, Nov 21, 2026. The flight out isn't nonstop: it has one stop and takes 8h 10m.

Why now
At $1,793 for two, all in, you get the Frontier round trip at $552 and 7 nights at Orange Tree Resort at $1,241, with taxes and fees included at the prices we found. The fare is $276 per person, which is $80 below the highest fare we saw for these dates. That's a 22% gap across the 12 offers we checked. Mid-November in the desert means typical highs of 71–81°F and lows near 53°F, so sunrise hikes feel comfortable and afternoons by the pool still work. Your dates fall well after the summer heat and before the February and March rush, when spring training brings peak resort rates. A checked bag and spending money aren't in the total. Our budget puts spending at $1,820 for two, which brings the whole week to $3,613.
The kind of trip this is
This is a warm desert week with a wellness lean: sunrise trail hikes, long afternoons by the pool, a spa day and evenings in Old Town Scottsdale's bars and restaurants. It suits a couple or two friends who like an active morning and a slow afternoon. Seven nights means there's no rush, so you can fit in architecture, gardens and a balloon ride without cramming your days.
