Location: Enchantment vs Element

Enchantment – Location

Enchantment sits on 70 acres at 525 Boynton Canyon Rd with direct trail access outside the gate.

  • Immediate access to Boynton Canyon Trail and nearby hikes (Devil’s Bridge, Fay Canyon).
  • Several miles from central Uptown Sedona; resort operates shuttle and rental options.
  • Set apart from Highway 179 traffic in a canyon setting.

Choose Enchantment for canyon-side seclusion and hiking access.

Element is on Highway 179 near Bell Rock and Sedona Golf Resort — a convenient base for area attractions.

  • Close to Bell Rock and Sedona Golf Resort and on the main route to many trailheads and shops.
  • Easier driving access to Uptown Sedona and restaurants than a canyon-located resort.
  • Nearest airports listed include Sedona (SDX) ~9.6 mi, Cottonwood (CTW) and Flagstaff (FLG).

Choose Element if you want straightforward access to Sedona’s Highway 179 corridor.

Rooms: casitas and suites vs studios

Enchantment – Rooms

Enchantment offers 218 casita-style guestrooms and multi-bedroom suites laid out across the property.

  • Room types include Casita Rooms, Junior Suites and multiple 1- and 2-bedroom suite configurations.
  • Designed for resort stays with private-feeling casita layouts rather than hotel corridors.
  • In-room dining is available; rollaway beds and pet-friendly room types are published.

Enchantment’s rooms suit couples, families and those wanting a spacious, casita feel.

Element – Rooms

Element has 117 individually furnished guestrooms focused on studio and one-bedroom suite formats.

  • Room types listed include Studio, 1 King Bed, Studio 2 Queen Beds, and 1-Bedroom Suites (some with balconies).
  • Most rooms include kitchenettes (refrigerator, microwave) — aimed at longer stays.
  • Accessible room options and daily housekeeping on request are available.

Element’s studios and suites are practical for extended stays and self-catering.

Dining & drinks: varied resort outlets vs grab-and-go

Enchantment – Dining & drinks

Enchantment provides a range of dining options from a signature restaurant to poolside and grab-and-go.

  • Che Ah Chi is the resort’s signature restaurant with seasonal menus and an award-winning wine list.
  • Tii Gavo offers casual Southwestern dishes and canyon views; The Edge serves poolside meals.
  • The Market provides grab-and-go breakfast and lunch items; in-room dining available.

  • A snack bar/deli serves grab-and-go items; complimentary continental breakfast is provided.
  • There is one bar/lounge where guests can get drinks in the evenings.
  • For full-service restaurants guests will typically travel off-site on Highway 179 or into Sedona.

Element is best for simple meals, breakfast included, with dining out for more variety.

Pools & outdoor amenities: resort pools vs hotel pool

Enchantment – Pools & outdoor amenities

Enchantment features two outdoor pools set against red-rock scenery with poolside dining and a bar.
