Curator’s statement
Ambiente, a Landscape Hotel, stands out as one of the best hotels in Arizona by seamlessly blending luxury with an immersive experience in nature. During my stay, I would have been content to simply relax in my room and take in the panoramic views of the mountains and wilderness. This was truly the best retreat I could dream of, between the ability to disconnect in nature and the luxurious room and amenities. I would return anytime I find myself needing a getaway to rest and recharge, and would highly recommend it to my clients in need of the same.

Ambiente easily earns its place as one of the best hotels in Arizona through sustainable elegant design and breathtaking natural surroundings. It's located in Sedona, Arizona, one of the most unique environments in the United States. As a guest here, I had nearly a 360-degree view of the area, courtesy of the floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows showcasing the landscape and allowing you to feel completely integrated with nature. There's nothing more serene than waking up in a luxurious hotel bed surrounded by the desert and mountains on all sides, or watching the sunset around the fire pit on your private rooftop terrace.
During your stay at Ambiente, I highly recommend participating in their activities specially curated to facilitate a mindset of peacefulness and reconnection with nature. Guided hikes through pristine trails, wildlife spotting excursions, and tranquil stargazing sessions under the vast night sky are just a few of the adventures awaiting you. When you are ready to unwind afterwards, you can continue enjoying the picturesque scenery at the pool, or make an appointment at the Velvet Spa featuring everything unique treatments like the Dark Sky Lounge sound bath, CBD-enhanced massages, IV infusions. To further enhance your stay and facilitate wellness and sustainability, their dining options feature locally sourced, organic, and absolutely delicious cuisine.
