I recently stayed at the Amara Resort and Spa in Sedona, Arizona, one of three resorts I visited there. It sits close to downtown Sedona, where you'll find galleries, shops, and restaurants, and the views from the property are striking. The on-site food held up well too.

The resort sits next to a creek providing a lush green landscape with towering boulder rocks peeking over the trees in the not too far distance. I was particularly amused by the Snoopy and Lucy rock formations. My only critique is the rooms feel a little dated.

Stay at this resort, if you’re looking for a fantastic location, a beautiful property, spa, and a good restaurant with nice wine selection.
