Excellent property and convenient location. Unfortunately, Sedona is now completely overbuilt and crowded. Although the area is absolutely beautiful, Sedona and adjacent towns have allowed unfettered development. The area has lost its unique character. If coming to the area, I would recommend finding a location out of the main tourist locations.

You can't park your own car here. The valet is complementary though. They're quick and friendly. Tip them, they deserve it! The restaurant is amazing. I highly recommend the elote mac and cheese. The pillows in the room could use an upgrade. I wish I had packed my flat memory foam pillow from home.

Conveniently located in uptown Sedona and near shopping and dining options. Issue with this property is the walls are paper thin and this was one of the noisiest hotel experiences I have ever had. Hotel staff constantly pushing luggage carts down the hall, vacuuming, patrons walking and talking loudly in halls - literally at all hours. I wanted to like this property but the noise levels made it impossible to sleep and enjoy it.

Off the main tourist drag, in a world of quiet and beauty of its own. The staff is super nice and the room was comfortable. The bathroom wall was in poor shape but the shower worked very well. The public areas are lovely. Check out the water’s edge below the pool, the bubbling creek is great.

Stayed here many times but quality went down, check in was not very nice, they charge so many fees, refuse to do late checkout, just makes the place feel cheap and less like a resort. Once I add the upgrade late-checkout minibar prices I might as well stay at enchantment or auberge I bet they’ll treat me better.

According to Expedia, I paid a Courtyard View of Red Rocks. When I got to Amara, I was told I have only paid a "partial" view. I showed the Expedia booking to her and mentioned there was no "partial" on the Expedia language and the lady apologized but didn't give me the room I was expecting.
