W Scottsdale Debuts “Sun Chasers” for Elevated Pool Experience

SCOTTSDALE (February 19, 2025) – W Scottsdale, located in the heart of the city’s vibrant Entertainment District, is thrilled to announce the return of its legendary WET Deck pool parties, kicking off Friday, February 21. Every Friday through Sunday, from 10 a.m. – 6 p.m., guests can soak up the Sonoran sun atop the hotel’s scenic rooftop, as they lounge around with a refreshing libation or make a splash in Arizona’s only chilled pool, while electrifying beats set the tone for an unforgettable experience.

This year, W Scottsdale is taking pool season to the next level with “Sun Chasers,” a global campaign from W Hotels designed to capture summer’s euphoric state of mind. The Sun Chasers-themed activations and Instagram-worthy moments are designed to ignite a sense of adventure and capture the spirit of summer. For those who can’t soak up the moment in person, W Scottsdale is bringing Sun Chasers to their homes with a curated playlist by global music director LP Giobbi, ensuring the vibe continues long after the sun sets.

“W Scottsdale’s WET Deck has long been the pulse of Scottsdale’s entertainment scene, drawing in guests from all over in search of a unique desert escape,” said David Cronin, General Manager at W Scottsdale. “We welcome locals and visitors alike to embrace the heat and enjoy one of Scottsdale’s most iconic destinations.”

Throughout the season, the WET Deck soundtrack will be powered by top DJs spinning high-energy beats daily, with holiday weekends featuring surprise performances and musical guests. Additionally, the hotel will host a series of spectacular events, including a patriotic Memorial Day celebration, a Fourth of July bash featuring the only fireworks display in Old Town Scottsdale, and a grand Labor Day extravaganza.

For those seeking a little bit of chill while embracing the thrill of the WET Deck, guests can unwind in one of the hotel’s private cabanas, featuring TVs, cooling fans, and plush lounge seating, perfect for groups looking to enjoy the scene in ultimate style and comfort. Alternatively, guests can sip expertly crafted cocktails, including the W Prickly Pear Paloma or W Mojito, at the upstairs Cottontail Lounge while taking in sweeping desert views, or rejuvenate at the onsite AWAY Spa, offering a tranquil retreat to detox and recharge.

Guests staying at W Scottsdale receive exclusive access to the WET Deck experience, while AWAY Spa guests enjoy complimentary entry. Daily entrance passes start at $50 (pricing varies by demand) and can be purchased at the door. New for 2025, W Scottsdale is now offering Monday–Thursday pool day passes via Resort Pass for those seeking a more relaxed weekday escape.
