Sheraton Wild Horse Pass Resort & Spa was recently recognized as the first Sheraton Grand resort in North America, for its premier service, world-class experiences and desirable location. Including the Sheraton Wild Horse Pass Resort & Spa, there are currently only 25 Sheraton Grand properties worldwide.

“Sheraton Grand celebrates the brand’s best-in-class hotels, each hand-selected based on a specific list of criteria ranging from sophisticated design and sought-after destinations, to unrivaled standards of service and impressive hotel amenities,” said Dave Marr, global brand leader, Sheraton Hotels & Resorts.

A short drive from Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, Sheraton Grand at Wild Horse Pass is the only property with an AAA Five-Diamond and Forbes Five-Star dining experience. The hotel’s signature restaurant, Kai, is recognized as one of the top 26 restaurants in the nation. In addition, the property offers 36 holes of golf, a Forbes Four-Star spa, expansive event and meeting space and an equestrian center.

The Sheraton Grand program is part of a bigger initiative, Sheraton 2020, a comprehensive effort to thrust the Sheraton name into the global spotlight. The five-year plan includes multimillion-dollar marketing campaigns, new food and beverage programs, guest experience improvements and a goal to open more than 150 new properties around the globe.
