The K has a very good golf course. It is also a seven-minute drive from either of the trailheads up Camelback Mountain, or a fifteen minute drive from the trailhead to Pinnalce Point.

The pools are very pleasant, including a lazy river, and the service will include anything on the hotel's restaurant menus.

The K is fifteen to twenty minutes directly from Sky Harbor, or twenty-five from the Rental Car Center. Cab fare will run about $30-40.
