Your stay at Gardenia House

Gardenia House is designed for laid-back Desert Color days with a little extra style.

Mornings can start with coffee in the bright kitchen before heading out for the lagoon, pickleball, or a slow walk through the resort. Spend the afternoon paddleboarding, loading up the cooler for a pool day, cruising by golf cart, or relaxing back at the house between activities.

Evenings are made for shared meals, movie nights, and sunset time on the penthouse patio. With five bedrooms across four levels, Gardenia House gives families and small groups room to spread out while still feeling connected.

The white and gold interiors keep the home feeling bright and polished, while the resort amenities make it easy to fill each day with sun, water, and Southern Utah adventure.
