Quick Verdict: Enchantment vs Amara Resort and Spa

When Enchantment wins: choose Enchantment if you prioritize direct trail access (Boynton Canyon), a larger low-rise casita layout across 70 acres, and access to the Mii amo destination spa with its adults-only thermal areas and multi-day wellness Journeys.

When Amara wins: choose Amara Resort and Spa if you prefer to stay in Uptown Sedona within easy reach of Tlaquepaque and galleries, want a single convenient on-site spa and SaltRock Kitchen dining, and favor a smaller, more central property.

Bottom line: Enchantment is the choice for a canyon-immersive, activity-and-spa-focused retreat; Amara is the choice for an Uptown, walkable Sedona base with a modern spa and creekside pool setting.

Location: Boynton Canyon vs Uptown Sedona

Enchantment – Location

Enchantment sits inside Boynton Canyon with direct access to red-rock trails and a more remote canyon setting.

  • Trailhead for Boynton Canyon is immediately outside the resort gate.
  • About 70 acres of low-rise casitas and canyon views; several miles from central Uptown Sedona.
  • Good base for guided hikes, mountain biking and nearby attractions like Devil's Bridge and Fay Canyon.

Choose Enchantment for on-site trail access and a canyon-centered stay away from Uptown bustle.

Amara Resort and Spa – Location

Amara is in Uptown Sedona, a short walk from galleries, shops and the Tlaquepaque Arts and Crafts Village.

  • Within a 5-minute drive of Tlaquepaque and Oak Creek Canyon; gallery row and Sedona Arts Center are close by.
  • Preferred on-site access to Uptown dining and shops—good for guests who want to be in town.
  • Easier short drives to Airport Mesa viewpoints and Uptown trailheads.

Choose Amara if you want a central location with walkable access to Sedona's shops and restaurants.

Rooms: casitas and suites vs creekside rooms

Enchantment – Rooms

Enchantment offers casita-style accommodations spread across the property in multiple suite configurations.

  • 218 casita-style guestrooms and suites (single-floor, low-rise layout).
  • Room types include Studio (Casita), Junior Suite and multiple 1- and 2-bedroom suites.
  • Casita layout emphasizes space and privacy across the canyon property.

Enchantment is better for guests who want roomy, spread-out casitas and suite options.

Amara Resort and Spa – Rooms

Amara's roster includes standard king and queen rooms plus creekside and patio suites.

  • About 100 rooms including King Room, Junior Suite, Signature Studio Suite (Creekside) and multiple accessible options.
  • Room options include patios, fire pits and some creekside locations.
  • Smaller property footprint means rooms are closer to the main hotel amenities.

Amara works for travelers who prefer a compact hotel with creekside room options and patios.

Dining & drinks: multiple outlets vs a focused restaurant

Enchantment – Dining & drinks

Enchantment provides a wider set of dining outlets tuned for canyon dining and wellness.

  • Signature restaurant Che Ah Chi (modern American) plus Tii Gavo (Southwestern), The Edge pool dining and The Market grab-and-go.
  • In-Room Dining available and reservations recommended for Che Ah Chi.
  • Hummingbird at Mii amo available to eligible Enchantment/Mii amo guests with advance reservations.

Enchantment offers more on-site dining variety and a signature fine-dining option (Che Ah Chi).

Amara Resort and Spa – Dining & drinks

Amara centers dining around SaltRock Kitchen plus a poolside bar and room service during limited hours.

  • SaltRock Kitchen serves local cuisine with garden and alfresco seating options.
  • Poolside bar and limited room service hours; breakfast available for a surcharge.
  • Fewer on-site outlets means more reasons to eat in Uptown or at nearby Tlaquepaque.

Amara is best if you want a reliable on-site restaurant and quick access to Uptown dining options.

Pools & outdoor amenities: canyon pools vs creekside pool

Enchantment – Pools & outdoor amenities

Enchantment has two outdoor pools set against red-rock canyon scenery with poolside dining.

  • Two outdoor pools with sun loungers, umbrellas and a poolside bar; one pool is wheelchair-accessible.
  • Outdoor activities and trail access are an extension of the pool-day experience.
  • Casita layout means quieter pool areas and spread-out seating.

Enchantment is ideal if you want pools integrated with canyon views and quieter pool decks.

Amara Resort and Spa – Pools & outdoor amenities

Amara offers a single outdoor pool, hot tub, free pool cabanas and a poolside bar with garden views.

  • One outdoor pool, one hot tub and free pool cabanas; pool hours and service details on-property.
  • Garden/creekside setting places the pool near Uptown conveniences.
  • Free bicycles on site for short rides around Uptown.

Amara is a good fit for guests who prefer a compact, creekside pool near town.

Wellness & nightlife: Mii amo Journeys vs on-site spa

Enchantment – Wellness & nightlife

Enchantment guests get access to the Mii amo destination spa, which runs adults-only thermal areas and multi-night wellness Journeys.

  • Mii amo is a separate on-site destination spa with treatment rooms, thermal areas and adults-only access (16+).
  • Mii amo offers 3–10 night all-inclusive wellness Journeys that include meals and spa credits (age restrictions apply).
  • Fitness & Movement Studio and complimentary group fitness classes are available to Enchantment guests aged 16+.

Choose Enchantment for a deep wellness focus and Mii amo’s structured spa programs.

Amara Resort and Spa – Wellness & nightlife

Amara has a full-service on-site spa with massages, facials and treatment rooms available to guests by reservation.

  • On-site spa reservations required for treatments; spa communal access and hours noted on property.
  • Sauna, steam room and hot tub available as on-site amenities.
  • Spa reservations are recommended in advance and some services require booking before arrival.
