The Best Value in Sedona, nestled between Oak Creek Canyon and Uptown Sedona, the Amara Resort is the perfect location. The AAA Four-Diamond Amara Resort Hotel & Spa is a creekside sanctuary that offers the best of all worlds. Located in the Uptown area of America's Most Beautiful place - Sedona, Arizona - you are just minutes from Sedona's best shopping, dining and galleries. But within the hotel itself, you are worlds away from the typical Southwest scene thanks to the hotel's serene location next to Oak Creek and its mesmerizing Red Rock views. Amara Resort is famous for its incredibly comfortable beds - guests simply don't want to leave them. But when they do, they enjoy the delicious dining at Hundred Rox restaurant, its blissful spa treatments, and the only saltwater pool in Sedona. With all the amenities found at Amara, it is no wonder this Sedona resort is the preferred place to stay while vacationing amidst the Red Rocks. Amara Resort offers*: 32" flat panel televisions CD/DVD players with complimentary movies Morning yoga classes Use of the Amara Spa Relaxation Room and Steam Room WiFi in guestrooms, public areas, patio and poolside GemCar service to local shops and galleries Over sized walk-in closets and in-room safes In-room refrigerator and coffee maker featuring Starbucks coffee Simmons Beauty rest pillow top mattresses and luxurious 300-thread-count Italian linens Outstanding activities like hiking, fishing and swimming nearby Parking and Valet.

creekside view only

The beautiful creekside view makes this resort worth it. If you opt for a construction discount directly over the huge loud cement pit of what will be the pool area, you will not care how much it is for an upgrade!

Value? Try elsewhere!

We were VERY disappointed that the pool was closed for renovations for up to six weeks. We were never told about it and no adjustment was made in our fee. The price we were quoted for the hotel was $268.00 but the price we were charged was $327.56. I expected the AZ Occupancy Tax but the hotel also charged a resort fee of $20.00 + $2.75 tax per day. We also tried to attend the yoga class but the class was filled because the room was TOO small. Very disappointed. The hot tub consisted of a tub in the VERY small work out room. The workout room consisted of several pieces of well worn equipment.

extra fees

There was a $20/day fee charged at the hotel, once you arrived. It made the price of the room very similar to any other hotel I could have chosen.

Nice hotel...staff was rude.

This wasn't the first time we stayed at Amara. The trip trip started off nicely... front desk was very helpful and the valet was very nice, but the experience with one of the staff ruined our opinion of the hotel. We had planned on a long stay this summer, but we won't be back to this hotel!

Fabulous hotel

We thought for the value this was a great hotel. We loved being within walking distance to town but yet because it sits down below the road near a creek, you feel you are in the woods. Some people complained of the steep hill to get to the road. But we found a set of steps that curved up so it didnt seem as steep. I also read some reviews that the staff wasn't friendly. We thought the staff was more than friendly. They went out of their way to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. We were upgraded to a suite when we got there and they checked us in early. Our view was nothing special and the room was pretty basic. But very clean and the hotel and our room always had a spa like smell in it, which I think came from the vents. Special! We also enjoyed the spa, but the gym was nothing special, very basic. This is why I gave the ammenities a 4 rating. We would definately stay here again.

Bad Experience

Unpleasant representative during the daytime at registration desk. Hotel charged resort fee of $20 without prior notice when reservation made. Checked out after one day due to family medical emergency. Hotel charged a penalty of approx. $18 for early checkout without any prior notice in reservation documentation.

Perfect Spot in Sedona

A little tricky to find if you have never been to Sedona! Call ahead and get directions. Once there, you will find a great little gem in the heart of Sedona. Friendly staff, nice clean rooms, beautiful views from many rooms, and nice lobby and bar. A nice, clean, reasonably priced hotel. Will definitely visit again.
