Give summer a proper Scottsdale send-off<\/b><\/p>\n

Summer may be winding down, but Scottsdale is not ready to slow down just yet. At The Nines at Kierland<\/b><\/a> in Scottsdale, Arizona<\/b>, the last stretch of the season is an opportunity to enjoy more of what surrounds you. Spend sunny afternoons making the most of the community amenities, retreat indoors when the desert temperatures climb, and head out for an evening around Kierland Commons or Scottsdale Quarter. With so many ways to spend the day close to home, you can turn an ordinary August weekend into one of your favorite parts of summer.<\/p>\n

Start the day from your own Scottsdale retreat<\/b><\/p>\n

There is no need to rush out the door when your apartment gives you plenty of reasons to stay in. The Nines offers one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartment homes with features that make everyday routines feel more elevated. Gourmet kitchens feature marble-style quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and Caf\u00e9 Series appliances, giving you a beautiful setting for everything from a quick breakfast to an elaborate weekend dinner.<\/p>\n

Hardwood-style flooring adds a polished finish throughout your home, while oversized closets give your favorite summer wardrobe plenty of room. Full-size washers and dryers make it easy to refresh pool towels and weekend essentials. Select homes also feature private patios or balconies, creating an inviting place to settle in during the quieter parts of the day.<\/p>\n

Make an iced coffee, turn on your favorite playlist, and give yourself permission to enjoy a morning with nowhere else to be.<\/p>\n

Plan the ultimate late-summer pool day<\/b><\/p>\n

When the Scottsdale sunshine is calling, make the heated lagoon-style pool your destination for the day. Settle in poolside, cool off with a swim, or spend some time relaxing in the hot tub. There is no itinerary to follow and no hotel checkout time waiting the next morning.<\/p>\n

When you're ready for a change of scenery, retreat to the Zen Garden and claim a hammock for a slower afternoon. Bring along a book, listen to a podcast, or simply enjoy a quiet moment away from your usual routine.<\/p>\n

As afternoon turns into evening, move the gathering to the outdoor kitchen. Prepare your favorite summer dinner and enjoy the outdoor setting before ending the night around the fire pit. It is an easy way to make an ordinary weekend feel like an occasion without traveling beyond your own community.<\/p>\n

Bring the fun indoors when the temperature rises<\/b><\/p>\n

Not every late-summer afternoon needs to be spent outside. When Scottsdale heats up, take your plans indoors and explore more of the community.<\/p>\n

The resident clubhouse gives you a comfortable place to relax, while the game room can turn an afternoon at home into a little friendly competition. Grab your favorite people and make a tournament out of it before settling into one of the community's inviting social spaces.<\/p>\n

Your afternoon can also start with a trip to the beverage station for nitro cold brew. It is an especially fitting pick for a warm Arizona day and an easy way to add a coffeehouse moment to your plans without heading across town.<\/p>\n

Need to take care of a few things before officially switching into weekend mode? Coworking offices provide dedicated space to focus and finish your to-do list. Once the laptop closes, the rest of The Nines is waiting.<\/p>\n

Give your wellness routine a summer refresh<\/b><\/p>\n

The end of summer can also be the perfect time to reset your fitness routine before fall arrives. The Nines features a 24-hour fitness center, so you can exercise when it works best for your schedule. Free weights provide additional options for strength training, while virtual fitness classes make it easy to change up your usual workout.<\/p>\n

Plan an early session before heading to the pool, or wait until the evening when you're ready for a little movement after a relaxing day. Having fitness resources within the community makes wellness another easy part of your late-summer plans.<\/p>\n

Your pup can get in on the fun, too. The fenced dog run gives four-legged residents their own dedicated outdoor space to enjoy. Afterward, you can both head home to cool down and recharge before your next adventure.<\/p>\n

Turn a Scottsdale evening into the main event<\/b><\/p>\n

Once the Arizona sun starts to settle, the neighborhood becomes part of your summer itinerary. The Nines places you near Kierland Commons<\/b> and Scottsdale Quarter<\/b>, making it easy to turn an evening out into anything you want it to be.<\/p>\n

Browse the shops, meet friends for dinner, grab dessert, or find a patio where you can linger into the evening. You can also plan a relaxing spa day at The Westin Kierland Resort & Spa or explore more of the dining and entertainment destinations throughout North Scottsdale.<\/p>\n

The best part is that you don't have to squeeze everything into one weekend. Try something new one evening, revisit a favorite restaurant the next, and save the rest for another late-summer outing.<\/p>\n

Make these last summer moments count<\/b><\/p>\n

There is something special about the final stretch of summer. It encourages you to enjoy the pool one more time, plan another dinner outside, stay up a little later with friends, and appreciate the everyday experiences you might otherwise overlook.<\/p>\n

At The Nines at Kierland, you have plenty of ways to do exactly that. Spend a day moving between the lagoon-style pool and Zen Garden. Challenge friends in the game room. Grab a nitro cold brew before heading to the fitness center. Prepare dinner at the outdoor kitchen. Or venture into Kierland for an evening out before returning to your own Scottsdale retreat.<\/p>\n

Summer may be nearing its finale, but there is still time to make a few more memories before the season changes. At The Nines at Kierland, some of the best ones can happen right at home.<\/p>\n
