Being across the street from our resort, Desert Ridge Marketplace was conveniently located and a pleasure to visit. My husband and I go to this mall for a couple meals and one movie. This mall has most of your regular shops, but overall it's on the high end. The mall is newer and outdoors but has misters to keep people cool. Parking is little ugly, as I can't say that this mall was designed to have efficient traffic movement, but the restaurants were worth it. We ate breakfast at a Starbucks here and also had dinner and beer at Rock Bottom.

I would overall recommend staying at the resort and visiting this mall. These two items are well put together and bring ease to the overall vacation in finding dining options and things to do if you have a few hours to spare.
