I have stayed there and it was 3 years ago. It was a very nice resort. my thoughts were that i would not recommened it for familys with children, and I don't think they have an AI program.
They are going thru a renovation stage and just finished the 1st phase. Look on the Arizona Tourist Board web sight, Or call the hotel. Like i said i really liked it and would go back anytime.

CC, What are you talking about it being one of only two Wigwam Villages standing? Could you explain? The resort was built to house workers at the nearby Goodyear plant. How could that be connected to Cave City, Kentucky?
Rebel -- I don't believe that the Wigwam is an all-inclusive resort. You might want to check their website for this information. I just did. They have several restaurants. They offer packages that include some meals. I saw nothing mentioned about drinks.
The web site also contains information on the history of the resort, which has nothing to do with wigwams or Native Americans.

KKJ...
I didn't know there was an actual Wigwam resort. Here is an excert from www.roadsideamerica.com about what I'm refering to...CC
Sleep in a Wigwam," the sign promises. And you won't be disappointed. This Wigwam Village Motel is one of a very few surviving "teepee-style" motels from Tourism's Golden Era. It was the first, built in 1937 by Frank A. Redford, who found his inspiration in authentic Sioux Reservation teepees and ice cream cone-shaped buildings popping up along highways.
Fourteen wigwam units are arrayed in a semicircle, facing the a larger gift shop and guest registration teepee. Steam Heat, tile baths, cable TV, large playground, picnic tables and grills, no pets allowed.
The Wigwam Village Motel in Holbrook, AZ, a decrepit mess in the early 1980s, was refurbished around 1988. Cable TV in each room — wake up to the Weather Channel! Cozy but comfortable.
