Only got one star because it s clean and smoke free. DO NOT DRINK ALCOHOL HERE. If you drink here and they feel you drank too much they will escort you to your room (if you are staying there) with no explanation but we observed you . 6 4 290 lbs man, I think I can handle a few drinks. Not slurring. Not stumbling. Overall, not drunk. I am writing this 5 mins after they walked me to my room. Trust I will never stay here again and will discourage anyone from doing so. If there was a complaint, an issue with my behavior I would completely understand. But there was nothing. Many other casinos to lose my money to.

Love the New look and the slots are fun. But the buffet still isn't open and the only place to get food is the bar or the steak house . Unless you play Bingo.
There is going to be a Grand Opening for the Yavapai Native American Community. We Ko Pa Casino Resort opens on Wednesday September 30th for the Community as a growth to be willing to make the changes that build a stronger and more clearer relationship with the City residents and the future of The Native American Tribal Council and the Casino guest that visit regularly. Thank you for your vision for the Casino's future.
We had a kindergarten promotion party for my granddaughter here at We-Ko-Pa. We had an AMAZING time! Their staff was great accommodating everyone. And all of their events were super family friendly. Also, their restaurant has great food at resonable prices. I'd highly recommend this resort for their value!
The rooms were nice and clean the pool area was big lot of happening things going on around there. Not much of a gambler but I guess the casino was okay
WORST VALENTINES DAY EVER. After 1hr 30 no food all the people around us no food. No bottle of champagne in the room. They screwed up our first valentine's day we have had out in forever. Don't go here it is terrible
Beautiful resort. The room we stayed in was comfortable and luxurious. Room service was prompt delivering good food still hot. My only complaint is the bathroom had no windows or fan.
We had such a wonderful time,everything was so much fun!, the dinner was very good, the staff was exceptional!, everything & everybody was so nice,we will definately recommend your resort to anyone who wants to have a comfortable stay in our beautiful state.Thank you again for a great time at the beginning of our New Year & look forward to seeing you again soon!!!. John & Gloria.
The construction makes parking a hassle- don't know if it also was s factor with the plumbing in our room but once it's completed the resort will be outstanding!
I had the the Cafe 87 restaurant special breakfast. A mer $4.00 gave me 2 large portions of a sweet ham steak, 2 pieces of toast, hashbrowns and eggs! The staff was very attentive, and kept our coffees full! I live in a neighboring town, so I have not stayed in their rooms. But I won $30.00 gambling on first machine, so it was a bonus breakfast!
Loved it!! Check in was so smooth, even though we checked in pretty late ( after 10p.m.). The room was ur normal resort type decor but it was soo clean. The casino looked a lil aged and tore back. I thought it was recently remodeled but it didn't look like it. So I'm hoping that they just haven't finished the cadino floor part yet. They did have a lot if slots but not a lot of $1 and up slots. And there wasn't a designated high roller room. The casino floor had no coordinationto placementof slots which sucked. . The price was average compared to other hotels in area. They did charge a extremely high resort fee which I think should be waived for those who live in Arizona. Every other casino or resort in other states I've stayed at waive the fee for locals. I would definitely stay here more often if they waived the resirt fee but until then I probably won't stay again.
Just when I thought a casino couldn't get any tighter with their slots, We-Ko-Pa goes and proves me wrong. When you put $20 in a machine and play .88 a spin that is 25 spins at least. You would figure that if the odds were set according to government standards to at least win enough to get to 30 spins. That is only $4.00 to payout. Twice this morning I fed a crisp $20 bill to a machine and twice this morning I played exactly 25 spins. I didn't even get a .01 payout on one spin. 50 spins with nothing. We-Ko-Pa is now We-No-Go as far as I'm concerned. Wont be back. ODDS ARE STACKED PEOPLE.
Had a fantastic time and I am going back in two weeks. The staff was great and the room was very spacious and clean. New machines that I haven't seen before. Great time.
Didn't enjoy my stay! First room we got was not clean. Then we were given another room. There's no microwave, the heater didn't work blowing out cold air. And the TV JUST STOPPED WORKING.
I am an avid swimmer and look to do early morning laps in the pool. During my stay there, unfortunately, the peace and quiet of the desert morning was much disturbed by loud music. Other hotels normally start their music at 10 a.m. and the music is low key nondisturbing music. The later in the day music is unwelcome. If hotel guests want pop rock and alternative music, let them bring their iPods. There is no reason to inflict the music on all of us. Thankfully I pack ear plugs with my swim gear.
This resort is in the perfect area! It would have even been better if it was sunny out to go to the pool. The pool is a 4. I gave it a three because I m surprised it s labeled as a resort. If it was labeled as a hotel, I would have given it a 4. The rooms are average to a room I would be at the Hilton or radiation blu. They have an attached casino if you are into that. The restaurant has really good tortilla soup. Overall, it s not bad, it s not great.
The hotel room itself was nice but many of the staff were rude. You get charged fees for everything that you wouldn t expect and no one confirms prices with you. The Fort Mcdowell casino staff were the same in the casino. When we asked about the fees and prices when checking out the lady was not helpful or understanding. She didn t try to make it right or anything. Will not be staying here again.
Had a good experience in We-Ko-Pa Resort Hotel. Nice food, good rooms and amenities and worth what you pay for being an upscale resort. I love the location, close to nature drive to Tonto National Park and Saguaro Lake. On the next door Fort McDowell Casino, I saw a couple of winning machines. A place to try and bet, and don t have a feeling they re robbing you. Must learn how to control once you win.
The conference area was booked with a separate convention on top of our conference. Also the construction took a major portion of the lot around the center. Other than that, it Dannie conference space and friendly staff.
While the location is a bit in the outskirts, it is lovely. They are currently undergoing a major renovation/expansion, everything is SO CLEAN!!!!! Normally there would be construction dust and noise, but it has been fantastic here. The food at the hotel restaurant is great. The STAFF- OMG, it has been a long time since I've stayed somewhere where EVERYONE has been so friendly, customer oriented, helpful, mindful, professional, .... you get the picture. I am not a gambler and certainly can't handle the smoke in the Casino, so it made it impossible for me to eat at the other restaurants in the Casino. They say "non smoking section", but you have to still walk through the casino and there are no real barriers between the casino and restaurants. Therefor I smelled like an ashtray after just 5 minutes of walking through to check out the restaurants there; needless to say, I didn't go back to any of them. My room was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. I had lovely views of the surrounding hills and mountains. I was attending a conference. The conference facility was very nice and I loved the access to the outdoor patio and the surrounding walking paths and landscaping. Everything is nicely decorated and designed to be modern, yet it blended nicely with the surrounding area, both inside the hotel and outside. They offer a shuttle to a local Target and Fountain Hills shopping/restaurant center. UBER was about $25 to get to Old Town Scottsdale. Supershuttle and UBER worked well for SKYHarbor Airport.
Beautiful atmosphere! Extremely clean grounds. Breathtaking views. And the best staff ever! The photo below was on a Friday night overlooking the pool as a storm came in. We live in Arizona, this did not ruin our trip, it made it! Beautiful blue skies the very next morning! Rooms were spotless, and the bathroom was a very nice size. 5 Stars all the way. Would highly recommend checking out this hidden gem.
First time I had stayed as an overnight guest. I booked a king and the gave me a double queen - which I did not need and I had wanted the in room refrigerator that came with the king room. The room overlooked the pool. Unless you like loud music until 10pm, don't book a pool view room. No ice bucket. They had forgotten to put it in the room. The employees overall were nice and the service in the restaurant was good. The food was just okay. Not sure if I will stay there again.
Completely disappointed that there was no contenental breakfast in the morning at that price I expected something. Fan was noisy and could not be shut off in bathroom. Complained to staff they could care less.
Nice relaxing property even during construction, except for one thing. To exit the hotel to go to the Casino the door is not automatic, only one, and since this is a great inconvenience for a Handicapped person in a wheelchair I am forced to make a complaint to management. The new facility will not open until next year and I complained 5 times in the past two months.
This has got to be the WORST hotel I have ever stayed at! As a traveler for work I have stayed in quite a few hotels. On our first night here I called to order room service the next morning since we were due to be downstairs for a dance competition at 6:55 AM and was told by the front desk staff that they weren t offering this service on Saturday morning because their staff didn t want to be overwhelmed. Not only that but the lady working at the front desk told me to just leave my 8 year old daughter in my room completely alone and go get food elsewhere! All of the restaurants in the casino we re closed and multiple dancers went to class without eating breakfast. Upon check out I inquired at the front desk if we could have a late check out due to having so much luggage and dance costumes with us. I was again told that they were not offering this service today. What kind of hotel does not offer at the standard services for their gas upon checkout I inquired at the front desk if we could have a late check out due to having so much luggage in dance costumes with us. I was again told that they were not offering this service today. What kind of hotel does not offer at the standard services for their guests? I hope you and your family have a better stay than we did. No customer service at all and complete lazy and careless staff. We will NEVER come back to this resort again and I hope Our dance group picks a different venue next year.
Very small but nice resort. Didn't use hotel just spa and pool. Very clean and safe. Spa services were professional and reasonably priced on Groupon. I will be back!!
Very nice place to stay, and for conferences. The hotel room I stayed in was nice and clean with comfortable beds. The conference facilities were nice, however they keep the rooms quite chilly. I didn't use the pool or gamble. The only comment I have regarding the casino is that it's smokey. There is a restaurant that offers a buffet in the casino. The food wasn't bad, but not outstanding either. Servers were attentive and friendly. There is a restaurant outside of the casino but on premises that had good food. I had the berry salad. My companions had a hamburger with sweet potato fries and a steak sandwich with regular fries. Both enjoyed their meals. Staff were attentive and friendly as well. Prices were competitive.
Cool casino, and I actually hit some nice bonuses. Left with more money than I walked in with. That never happens. Not much of food options here. We wanted to eat but didn't want to eat at the fancy steakhouse. Looking forward to returning and playing their golf course.
Comfy beds , quick check in , food is awesome !!Lots of choices!!Sushi bar is best around and the buffet .. all you can eat lobster is an awesome value! Machines are tight .. but that's the norm these days ...they always have fun bands in the lounge and the pool is a great time!!
The people, especially food servers and housekeeping were very friendly. Only 4 stars because they were understaffed and we had to wait a long time for our food. The conference center was well signed so we knew what rooms we need to be in. Hot tub was dirty.
Very nice place, friendly service, nice rooms, not huge but good enough. Great place to stay. LTE internet is very weak, but their WiFi is pretty decent, so no problem there and it's easy to hook up your own gear, so if you have Chromecast or Amazon Fire Stick - they'll work great here.
Had a great one night stay at Wekopa. Stayed in the suite which was fantastic and had a jet tub and a conference table. Fantastic pool and hot tub area. Had a good time gambling and enjoyed a prime rib dinner and pancake breakfast.
