Enchantment Resort

An Extraordinary Sedona Experience — Already Looking Forward to Returning This was my second consecutive summer at Enchantment Resort, and once again I was reminded why this property is so special. I spent three nights at Enchantment with my guest, who was experiencing the resort for the first time. By the end of our stay, he understood exactly why I had been so enthusiastic about returning. The setting is simply magnificent. Tucked into Boynton Canyon and surrounded by Sedona’s extraordinary red-rock landscape, Enchantment offers a sense of place that is difficult to describe until you have experienced it yourself. Waking up surrounded by those formations, watching the light change across the canyon, and enjoying the quiet of the property are experiences that stay with you long after departure. The resort has a relaxed elegance that I particularly appreciate. It feels upscale without being pretentious, and the combination of the natural surroundings, excellent dining, comfortable accommodations, and genuinely welcoming staff makes it very easy to settle in and enjoy Sedona. I also appreciate how well Enchantment works as a base for exploring the area. Whether your interests are hiking, photography, the spectacular scenery, or simply enjoying a few peaceful days in one of the most beautiful places in Arizona, the location is exceptional. What may say the most about my experience is this: I fully intend to make Enchantment an annual summer destination. Three nights passed far too quickly, and on future visits I expect to stay four, five, or perhaps seven days. There are many beautiful resorts. Enchantment offers something more—the remarkable feeling of actually being immersed in Sedona rather than simply visiting it. I look forward enthusiastically to returning next summer. Five stars, and very highly recommended.

Overly expensive for what you actually get. There are better resorts in the area that are likely a better value. The best part is simply their location. But in terms of what they provide, it’s basic. Food is horrible.

Beautiful location and well maintained resort, had an amazingly relaxing weekend there, the only downside is running around trying to get the room keys working when we first arrived

We have come to Enchantment regularly for 28 years, twice this year alone, as Arizona residents. I am writing this because I was deeply troubled to learn that the in-room glasses and coffee cups are simply rinsed in the bathroom sink and dried by housekeeping staff right in the room. This is not a sanitary practice for a luxury property. We were left with only one coffee cup at the start of our 5-day stay. When I asked the housekeeping staff outside for another, they indicated they had no cups available. I also called housekeeping and left a message, but a replacement never arrived. Later, I called the front desk to express my disappointment regarding how the drinkware is maintained. The representative checked with management and confirmed that fresh cups are only given at arrival, and staff simply rinse and dry them in the bathroom sink for the remainder of a multi-night stay. Furthermore, I noticed a lack of separate, dedicated cleaning supplies, raising serious concerns about cross-contamination between bathroom surfaces and our drinking glasses. I cannot believe this is the standard for a five-star hotel. Even lower-rated properties offer individually wrapped cups so you know they are clean. This is an unacceptable practice, and I plan to contact Relais et Chateaux to see if this aligns with their global standards.

Enchantment Resort was truly unforgettable. The location is breathtaking and made us feel completely immersed in nature. Seeing javelinas and hummingbirds around the property, surrounded by the red rocks, made it feel incredibly special. We loved the pool, games, Intro to Archery, and the helicopter tour. Our casita was beautiful, everything was easy to get around, and the resort is still perfectly located for exploring more of the surrounding cities. My husband and I also went horseback riding nearby. Absolutely mesmerizing and one of the most memorable trips we’ve taken.
