Downtown Gilbert is a 12 minute drive from the Holiday Inn Express! Find some parking and explore the many shops and restaurants. Some of our faves; tacos at Joyride, brunch at Postinos, or try Dierks Bentley's Whiskey Row.
The Desert Botanical Garden is such a cool place to go for the day! It's good for adults and kids to walk around and see all the different desert vibes. Grab some lunch after or walk around the shops in near by 'Old Town' Scottsdale! Get some tacos at 'Diego Pops' or some AMAZING pizza at 'Grimaldi's'.
Extending your stay or need a day trip idea? Sedona is #1 on our list! The beauty of the red rock speaks for itself. Whether you want to spend the day shopping and walking downtown or go on a hike, Sedona is PERFECT. The list of hiking trails is endless but 'Devils Bridge' is one of our faves. Then after have a lunch with a beautiful view at either 'The Vault' or 'The Hudson'! No matter what your plan is, TAKE LOTS OF PICS!!
