Sedona Pines Resort

We stayed in January of this year and found it to be quaint and low key after spending a couple of days at an upscale resort in town. We enjoyed the beauty and serenity and would recommend staying there to others.

Didn't stay here, but took the tour. 5 Star RCI? I think someone was on drugs!

These are nothing more than a petite single wide mobile home; I felt like I was in a camper. The "model" was nicely decorated, and that is about all that I can say. My husband & I bumped into each other repeatedly.

The pool area was nothing special - rather small.

We stayed here with two grandchildren ages five and three at the time of our stay. Really, we were pleasantly surprised. The units are TINY, but well laid out. There is a deck in the front of each unit extending the living space a bit. The miniature golf course, pool and playground were certainly a hit with the kids. The unit and grounds were imaculate. The surrounding area is magnificent.

This place was clean, it was great for just coming back and sleeping,but if you wanted to sit and relax,it wasnt comfortable! not really anything to do there,no scenery.besides the housekeepers leaving our place opened,I mean the door opened for 14 hours while we were gone,it was an alright place.we left early,very unhappy,as they didnt seem to care that we were concerned about our belongings being uncared for.

How this trailer park got an RCI Gold Crown rating has more to do with politics than any amenities contained in these very small (400 sq.ft.) units. When RCI started their points system, most week-based deeded resorts (and timeshare owners) were reluctant to convert their weeks to points. The resort owners of Sedona Pines saw their chance to enhance the value of these "double wides" located in an RV Park ten miles south of Sedona by being the first RCI resort in Arizona to switch to a 100% points system. Having stayed in these doll houses, I say they should be Resort of Int'l Distinction at most. No way is it a Gold Crown Resort. Los Abrigados in downtown Sedona is a real Gold Crown Resort. Sedona Pines is not! The guy who rated this as 5-Stars probably owns here.

It is a nice RV like setting (it used to be an RV park they made into permanent luxury mobile home sites. ) While this is a bit odd at first to get used to, it offers tremendous privacy since it is a stand alone unit. Nice big shade trees and a lovely little manmade stream runs right behind most of the units. Our kids LOVED it and are still asking to go back.

The 2BR is not really an appropriate option unless your kids are old enough to be in a separate building (just across a deck) from you. The 1BR is REALLY cramped with the sofabed pulled out. The pool, putt-putt and kids activities were awesome. I wouldn't stay here if it weren't for the kids though. The staff could use a little more training and support. It is just a mile down the road from Red Rock State Park which has one of the best Oak Creek swimming holes around (again, great for the kids!)

Sedona is known worldwide for its awesome and inspiring natural beauty. Most visitors come here to get away from the tourist traps and glitz of places like Honolulu, Orlando and Las Vegas. Instead of vegetating in a luxury condo watching TV during your vacation, guests can enjoy day hikes, picturesque red-rock formations and canyons, and the unspoiled scenery of mother nature.

This resort rates Five-Stars primarily because it maintains this "natural" Sedona setting with all the comforts of upscale modern living. The staff is excellent and the grounds are impeccable and meticulously maintained. If you are looking for cocktail lounges, shopping malls, movie theaters, and a McDonald's/Dennys down the street then this is the wrong place for you.

The resort is modern and new compared to most timeshares that have been around since the 70s or 80s. Great new pool complex with 10 person custom in ground jacuzzi. Each unit is like a private bungalow, airy and bright with lots of windows to enjoy the beauty of Sedona all around you even when inside. The two bedroom units are separated by a private deck for total privacy when sharing with another adult couple. Property is well groomed and maintained to keep the natural look and includes small flowing streams that babble in the background. The best Sedona timeshare for a quiet, relaxing and peaceful getaway.

Never stayed here but took a tour. I've seen nicer resorts around Sedona.

Cottages are superfancy mobile homes artfully disguised.

It isn't really in Sedona but is near by.

We stayed here with our children this year. Very clean with lots of amenities. Units were about 400 sq feet but were fine for just us. Lots of weekly activities for the kids. Wonderful 18 hole putting green. We made that a nightly ritual! Very helpful staff. Nice decks with patio furniture. Peaceful stream that runs behind each villa. We would definitely come again.

It was fine. The cottages are superfancy mobile homes artfully disguised. Liked the common deck joining the main cottage + the guest cottage. Was nice for couples or group traveling together. The pool is nice; good water aerobics instructor. The conceirge was helpful as was Monday orientation. It was mostly a base camp for our adventures and while not wildly luxurious or spacious, was nice, clean, had all the amenities we wanted/needed.
