  The Sheraton Grand at Wild Horse Pass is owned by the Gila River Indian Community, a sovereign Native American tribe, and is operated under a management partnership with Sheraton (Marriott International). Located on tribal land in Phoenix, AZ, it is a Native American-owned luxury resort designed to reflect the heritage of the Pima and Maricopa tribes. The resort was designed by tribal members to reflect the Pima (Akimel O’otham) and Maricopa (Pee Posh) cultures, featuring local artwork, indigenous landscaping, and themed rooms. An interior designer’s masterpiece, each detail has been included for cultural significance from the Pima and Maricopa traditions from the design of the tiles and bedspreads, to the petroglyph-engrained furniture.
