We had an excellent stay at Amara. Every person we encountered on staff was incredibly friendly and helpful! The location is perfect for walking all over Upper Sedona. The grounds are very clean and the view is incredible. We will definitely return!

Top notch resort. Stayed at another in town for comparable price that didn’t even come close in any category

Amara was amazing! The scenery and proximity to all the shops on uptown was perfect. The staff and service was top notch too. Pool also has a babyling brook behind it with natural views of wildlife that really makes you feel like you’re in nature. Highly recommend staying here for your Sedona trip

The room was comfortable but no view, very disappointing. The carpet in the lobby needs cleaning.

We would love the opportunity to make it up to you and provide you with the service you deserve on your next visit. Please consider giving us another chance to exceed your expectations.
Friendly staff went out of their way to help! Great location. Some little extras that illustrated it's a notch up in service like a blanket for my wife when we went outside for an evening cocktail. Nice touch! Great facility and staff.

Thank you for the wonderful review! Glad to hear you appreciated all the little touches Amara offers to enhance the guest experience! Please come back and see us again soon. Safe travels!
As a female traveling alone, I felt completely Amara. There was so comfortable and uptown Sedona was right up the hill and very walkable. The restaurant was good, the spa was AMAZING, and all of the staff were friendly and helpful. I will definitely stay here again!

Everything about this place is 5 starts! From getting your car vallet to checking in, the bar, the restaurant. The pool and lake was amazing!

Thank you for the feedback. We strive to provide exceptional service and accommodation to all our guests, and your feedback is invaluable to us in ensuring we meet and exceed expectations. We will address our team as 5-star service is what they are trained to produce. Specific details on which department needs training greatly appreciated. We hope to have you back for a much-improved experience.
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.

I can’t say enough about this at this resort. They are the friendliest and kindness staff I have ever ever met. They are hard-working, knowledgeable and super friendly. The food is delicious and probably one of the best views I’ve ever seen!

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.

Great location, peaceful, comfortable but bathrooms are small more designed for a single traveler. Need more hooks or shelves so I don’t have to live outside my suitcase.

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.

It's a fantastic Resort right along the Oak Creek beautiful pool and hot tub. The staff is absolutely amazing kind helpful thoughtful everything you would want at a resort. Valet Parkers get your car quick and take care of you very well. Hotel restaurant is excellent try the pumpkin spice soup and the lobster tacos you will not be disappointed
