Hilton Vacation Club Los Abrigados Resort & Spa Sedona

After long days on Sedona's trails, it was great to come back to the resort. The large outdoor hot tub was especially relaxing, and it was fun sharing hiking stories with other guests. On our rainy first day, we explored the shops, galleries, and restaurants next door, which seem to be a destination in their own right. We also liked sitting by the big lobby fireplace after a soak. The wood smoke outside brought back memories of camping trips. We asked for a newly renovated second-floor suite and got exactly that. It was nearly perfect, with everything new and just a trace of new-construction smell. The TVs were a little old-fashioned, and we couldn't work out how to stream or cast from our phones, so we didn't use them. I don't think there's an elevator, so anyone with health issues and heavy luggage may want staff help carrying bags upstairs. We stayed five days as regular paying guests, not timeshare club members. They asked once if we'd like a timeshare presentation for freebies; we said no and weren't asked again. I'm not sure what the room service schedule was, because our room wasn't serviced during our stay, but the guest services desk quickly refilled our coffee and creamer packets when we asked. With the $35 nightly resort fee, it still seemed like good value for the location and amenities, and we'd likely book again.

I live in Phoenix and visit Sedona often. This property is consistently my first choice and keeps exceeding expectations. Jed at the front desk made check-in seamless and had everything set for a relaxing wellness weekend. I loved the suite with a private jacuzzi on the balcony. It was so relaxing, and there's plenty to do on the grounds. Tlaquepaque and my favorite coffee shop, Freeform, are both within walking distance. I'd definitely recommend the hotel for a cozy, beautiful, quiet stay in Sedona.

The property is beautiful and well maintained, and the spa and pool were especially good. We had a comfortable, clean room with lovely views, and the stay at Hilton Vacation Club Los Abrigados Resort & Spa in Sedona was relaxing and enjoyable. My only reason for giving four stars rather than five was that the front desk staff seemed a bit impatient during check-in.

The creek was peaceful, and I had fun looking around the Tlaquepaque Art shopping area just behind the property. I didn't have a rental car, so it was useful to know that Uber isn't always available in Sedona. The concierge suggested the Groome shuttle to and from Pheonix airport, and I'm glad they did. I liked how the apartment buildings were spread apart. The place was clean and well maintained, and my room was much larger than I expected. It was quiet, with no noise from neighboring rooms, and I appreciated having a kitchen. I was pleasantly surprised to find free laundry machines on site and detergent at the front desk.
