There are few moments in life that truly take your breath away, but as I stepped onto the grounds of the Enchantment Resort Sedona, I knew I was in place that would evoke emotions that would last an eternity. From the stunning natural surroundings to the luxurious accommodations, every aspect of this resort was beyond compare. I was immediately struck by the breathtaking beauty of the red rock formations that surrounded the property, and as I explored the resort further, I was delighted to discover a wide range of amenities and activities that made my stay simply unforgettable.

The accommodations at the Enchantment Resort are, by all accounts, world-class. I had the pleasure of staying in one of their spacious and beautifully appointed casitas, which featured a private outdoor terrace with breathtaking views of the red rocks. The casita itself was impeccably designed, with tasteful Southwestern-inspired decor and all the modern amenities one could ask for. I appreciated the thoughtful touches, such as the plush bathrobes and locally sourced bath products, which added an extra layer of luxury to my stay.

In addition to the casitas, the Enchantment Resort also offers a range of other accommodations, including suites and private residences. No matter what type of room you choose, you can rest assured that each offers the same impeccable level of comfort and style.

The Enchantment Resort is one of the most extraordinary places I have ever had the pleasure of staying at.

Enchantment Resort Restaurant Options

One of the highlights of my stay at the Enchantment Resort was the incredible culinary experience that I had while dining out in the resort’s superb restaurant options:  Che-Ah-Chi and Tii Gavo. The cuisine was absolutely delicious, with a focus on fresh, locally-sourced ingredients that showcased the flavors of the region.

The resort’s signature restaurant, Che-Ah-Chi, offers a fine dining experience that was truly unforgettable, with stunning views of the red rocks and an innovative menu that blends classic Southwestern flavors with contemporary culinary techniques.  The food is matched only by their incredible wine pairings – so incredible, in fact, that the restaurant was awarded the 2022 Wine Spectators Best of Award of Excellence. It came as no surprise, however,  as they offer over 500 different labels from around the world along with a world-class sommelier on hand to ensure you find the perfect bottle. I also loved the casual elegance of Tii Gavo, which offers a more relaxed atmosphere and a menu of traditional Southwestern dishes, as well as handcrafted cocktails, including the perfect prickly pear margarita and local beers. I highly recommend dining here for both lunch and after dinner cocktails, as the restaurant’s bar is a wonderful way to socialize and meet new people.

Enchantment Resort Spa

As someone who loves to indulge in spa treatments, I was thrilled to discover that the Enchantment Resort’s Mii amo spa is consistently ranked as one of the best spas in the country. The spa offers a range of treatments that are designed to promote physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being, and it was this holistic approach that left me feeling renewed and refreshed.

From the soothing atmosphere of the spa’s relaxation rooms to the expertly administered massages, facials, and body treatments, every aspect of my spa experience was simply divine.

I personally had the pleasure of experiencing a cupping massage, my first but not last, at the Enchantment Resort’s Mii amo spa, and it was truly one of the most amazing spa treatments I’ve ever experienced. The therapist was incredibly skilled and knowledgeable about the technique, and she made me feel completely at ease throughout the entire treatment.

As she applied the cups to my back and neck, I could feel the tension and stress melting away from my body.  The sensation of the cups gently pulling at my skin was incredibly relaxing, and I felt a deep sense of release and rejuvenation as the therapist expertly moved the cups around to different areas of my body that were harboring stress.

By the end of the treatment, I felt like a new person, completely free of any pain or tension that I had been experiencing before. The cupping massage at the Enchantment Resort is truly a must-try experience, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and effective way to relax and rejuvenate. The Mii amo spa is truly a gem, and the cupping massage is just one of the many amazing treatments that they offer.

The Enchantment Resort’s location in Sedona, AZ is truly one of its biggest selling points. The resort is situated in the heart of the stunning red rock formations that have made Sedona famous, offering guests unparalleled access to some of the most breathtaking hiking trails in the region. Whether you’re an experienced hiker or just starting out, there is a trail for everyone at the Enchantment Resort.  If you’re unsure of your skill level or just want insider advice, I recommend a visit to the trail house, where they can set you up with a guide, supply you with any gear you may have left at home, or send you off with in-depth trail info and history.  They also offer mountain bike adventures and rentals if you prefer to move along with a bit more speed.

No matter which trail you choose, the moment you set foot on a trail the energy is palpable, and you can’t help but be struck by the grandness and beauty of the surrounding landscape. The towering red rock formations create a dramatic backdrop for the hiking trails, with sweeping vistas that are truly awe-inspiring. And, because the resort is located in the heart of the red rocks, you can easily access the trails directly from the resort with a short walk or a ride from the friendly staff in a golf cart.
