Wild Horse Pass Resort and Spa

The Bird Golf Schools are proud to be the official Arizona golf school of the magnificent Wild Horse Pass Resort and Spa.

Wild Horse Pass has already taken its place as one of the finest golf resort destinations in the Southwest. Wild Horse Pass is nestled between the Sierra Estrella and South Mountains and is an easy 15 minute drive from Phoenix airport. The rugged, awe-inspiring vistas surround our golf schools students and give them the perfect venue for their Arizona golf school. With every conceivable amenity, Wild Horse has something for everybody. The perfect Arizona golf school resort setting. For a review from a recent golf school student, click here.

The resort has already been the recipient of several awards. Recognized by the Zagatsurvey 2005, as one of America's Best Resorts and featured in Travel and Leisure magazine (January 2005) as one of the world's most enriching, culturally authentic resorts, Wild Horse is not just another resort; but an experience. There are five restaurants on property led by the highly acclaimed Kai Restaurant which features a menu rich in creativity, history and Native American culture. James Beard Award-winning Chef Janos Wilder is consulting chef for Kai and is renowned for creating unique and indigenous menu experiences.

The Aji Spa and Salon creates a sanctuary and has a myriad of treatments (Aji is the Pima word for Sanctuary). There are 17 custom designed treatment rooms, a full service salon, private swimming pool and Watsu pool. Our golf school students delight in the beautifully appointed rooms that feature Pima and Maricopa furnishings and accessories. Guest rooms feature bath suites with separate tub and shower. Enjoy panoramic views including the Sierra Estrella and South Mountain Ranges, the Gila River and the two championship golf courses from your private patio or balcony. You may even see the wild horses roaming across the desert.

Wild Horse is also home to the Koli Equestrian Center. Enjoy one thousand acres of riding trails that showcase the magnificent Sonoran desert or take in a Western themed event. The waterways that meander throughout the resort allow our golf school students to even take a ferry ride through much of the beautiful landscape.

The Golf Courses

The highlight for our golf schools students, however, are at the incredible Whirlwind Golf Club. This 36 hole masterpiece was designed by Gary Panks and is the perfect venue for your Arizona golf school. Voted by Golf magazine, as one of the Top 25 "New courses in the US", in 2004, Whirlwind is also home to the PGA Nationwide Tour Gila River Classic.

Our golf school students are treated to the impeccable service and amenities that are the hallmark of Troon Golf ®. In fact, Whirlwind was Troon Golf's 2004, "Facility of the Year" (out of 140 course worldwide) and in a short time, has already become one of the most highly regarded facilities in all of the Southwest. Our golf school students enjoy immaculate, private, range facilities, practice greens and the two championship courses; Cattail and Devil's Claw.

In all ways, the Wild Horse Pass Resort and Spa is the ideal venue for "The Ultimate Golf Learning Experience ®".
