Our recent stay at the Hilton Vacation Club in Sedona was overall a good experience, though it’s worth noting that it’s not a traditional hotel. Instead of standard double-bed rooms, the units come with either a queen or king bed plus a sofa bed. The suite also included a small kitchen with an electric stovetop (a bit tricky to operate), a tiny under-sink dishwasher that worked surprisingly well, and a refrigerator.
The property provides a washer and dryer, which was very convenient—though there is a $25 amenities fee, so technically laundry isn’t entirely “free.” Still, the machines worked great, and I actually enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub while doing laundry. The hot tub was definitely one of the highlights after a day of exploring.
The resort is located just outside of Sedona, which I found to be a plus. It’s away from the congestion of the town center but still close to a supermarket and some smaller local restaurants. Being right off a highway also made it easy to drive to other parts of the area for sightseeing.
The overall space was smaller than expected, but it served its purpose as a comfortable and convenient base. Between the location, the amenities, and the relaxing hot tub, it met the key objectives of what we needed: a clean, practical place to stay with good access to Sedona and its surroundings.
