Winter holidays in Arizona offer a unique twist on the traditional season. While much of the country shivers under snow, guests at our Gilbert and Mesa vacation rentals enjoy mild temperatures, sunshine, and festive events that prove you do not need cold weather to celebrate in style.

Holiday Light Displays and Events

The Mesa Temple Christmas Lights display draws visitors from across the state with its spectacular light show and live nativity scenes. Gilbert's Heritage District hosts holiday markets, caroling events, and Santa visits throughout December. After an evening of holiday festivities, return to The Grand Oasis or The Big House for hot cocoa by the fire pit.

A Different Kind of White Christmas

If you want snow with your holidays, combine your Arizona stay with a few days at our Brian Head cabins. Drive north to Cabin Cedar or Sweet Mountain Retreat for a white Christmas in the mountains, then return to sunny Gilbert for New Year's poolside celebrations. LoveYourVacationRental.com makes split-destination holiday trips easy to plan.
