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!

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

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!

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.
