Enchantment in Phoenix

I never realized that Phoenix offers more than just endless spaces. Since I am half a world away from this state, I was glad to find that there are surprisingly beautiful oasis in this rock country.


Enchantment Resort in Sedona (Phoenix, Arizona) is an adobe casita style accommodations sprinkled along the base of a canyon ringed with towering rock formations. It is said that at sunset, the crimson canyon walls seem lit from within.

Located on 70 acres in the Coconino National Forest and tucked against the vermilion walls of Boynton Canyon, the resort provides a unique opportunity to discover the culture and heritage of the native American people. Sedona is an area for adventure with access by hiking, jeep tours and mountain biking.

Both Tii Gavo and the Yavapai Restaurants feature 180 degree views of the canyon so spectacular that it is said that one can actually see ancient cliff dwellings.
