Embrace the Ultimate Winter Getaway at Sedona’s Most Luxurious Hotel

As cooler temperatures transform Arizona’s high desert, Ambiente, North America’s first landscape hotel, invites travelers to experience Sedona’s most peaceful and enchanting season from the comfort of its adults-only luxury retreat.

Winter in Sedona is a time of rare beauty and calm. Crisp days hover in the 50s and 60s, perfect for hiking through sun-drenched canyons and exploring nearby trails. Beloved routes such as Devil’s Bridge, Soldier Pass and Cathedral Rock are blissfully uncrowded this time of year, offering a peaceful, almost spiritual connection to the landscape. Occasional dustings of snow add quiet drama to the red rocks, while cooler evenings make fireside stargazing sessions all the more inviting. With fewer visitors and vibrant seasonal colors, it’s an ideal moment to experience Sedona’s natural majesty in an intimate, unhurried way.

Nestled among Sedona’s striking red rock formations, Ambiente reimagines the concept of a winter getaway. Each of its 40 elevated Atriums is designed with floor-to-ceiling glass walls that frame the region’s iconic vistas, allowing guests to take in the shifting light of the desert from the comfort of their room. Plush interiors create a cozy haven that balances architectural sophistication with elemental warmth, while private rooftop decks, each outfitted with a firepit, provide the perfect perch for stargazing beneath Sedona’s crystal-clear dark skies. Guests can also unwind in the property’s oversized jacuzzi, encircled by fire — one of the few winter destinations where you can relish the outdoors in just your bathing suit.

This season, guests can indulge in a private, restorative heat experience with a SaunaBox in their Atrium. A soothing ritual that boosts circulation, soothes sore muscles and melts away the day’s tension, this personal sauna creates a spa-like sanctuary just steps from one’s bed. Guests can complement the experience with sensory treatments at Velvet, the hotel’s full-service wellness sanctuary, or savor a chef-curated seasonal menu inspired by the Verde Valley at Forty1, the property’s refined on-site restaurant.

“Winter is one of Sedona’s most magical seasons,” said Jennifer May, co-founder and co-owner of Ambiente. “The air is crisp, the trails are quiet and the landscape feels even more intimate. We’ve created an environment where guests can slow down, reconnect and experience Sedona’s natural beauty in its purest form — whether it’s through a private sauna, a fireside evening or simply soaking in the snow-dusted red rocks from their Atrium.”
