2022 Spring Training    

This Year More Than Ever 2022 Spring Training Reservations Need to be Made Early

First the good news - for any given day, our web site visitation is up 50-200% over pre-COVID numbers, with a corresponding increase in inquiries. The earliest we have ever had as many reservations as are currently booked was Dec. 2.

The bad news is, it has to be assumed there is an equal increase in the number of people looking into the multitude of other events taking place in Phoenix at the same time, most of which have known dates, and can already be filling the fixed number of hotel rooms available.

The additional demand won't make Phoenix in 2022 any busier than any previous ("normal") March, because you can't get busier than full. And every ("normal") March, Phoenix fills; after that everyone else gets turned away. What the additional demand is likely to do is drive up the cost of lodging and, of much greater concern, cause hotels to fill sooner.

Does not matter how many empty seats are in the stadiums, once hotels fill there is nowhere to stay.   If you don't have reservations by the time the "no vacancy" sign goes up, you won't be going - we won't have your business - nobody wins.

In "normal" years, by late Nov. - early Dec. we stop saying "yes" and start saying, "let me check those dates".   If the interest we've been seeing is any indication, by Dec. there may not be dates to check.   It can't be overstated, reservations for 2022 Spring Training need to be made early.

To encourage you to make your reservation NOW, until the 2022 Spring Training schedule is released (late Aug. - early Sept. in the "normal" recent past), reservations can be made with a $100/person deposit rather than the usual 27-30% of package price.   Also, the prices currently posted below are the 2020 seasons package rates.   We are guaranteeing 2020 rates on all 2022 packages with reservations made before the schedules are released or Sept. 16, whichever comes first.

You do not need to choose your package dates until after the schedule comes out (we call this a Floating Reservation).   When the schedule is released we will let you know. Your reservation file will be ready and only waiting for dates to secure lodging.   A Floating Reservation (click for more information) gets priority processing over reservations made after the schedule is released.

Your deposit is 100% refundable until 30 days after the schedule has been released (at which point the regular refund policy goes into effect - balance due by Dec. 7, 2021).

We will get in touch with you as soon as the schedules come out in the Fall. *   *   *   *   * * Wiles West tries very hard to get all seating in the shade, however, we can not give a 100% guarantee of shade as some stadiums have very little to begin with. (In 2020, for the games we got to, all seats were in the shade by the first pitch).

** For years we anguished over taking our guests to Scottsdale Stadium.   Had it been a hotel, restaurant or any venue other than a Spring Training stadium we would not have returned after the first visit.   In 2019 after overhearing several guests complaining about the abysmal parking situation, the arrogant and rude personal, the poorly designed, densely packed, uncomfortable seating and the non-stop parade of barkers peddling raffle tickets to the detriment of being able to enjoy the game (we could add several others we did not hear from guests) the decision was made that Wiles West would no longer be attending games at Scottsdale Stadium.
