Sedona All Inclusive Family Resorts, and the One That Will Not Take Your Children

Eleven Sedona properties tested in September 2026 against one question: does the operator's own website sell an all-inclusive board plan a family can book? Not one does. Exactly one sells a genuine all-inclusive product, and it welcomes guests aged 16 and over. This is the second Arizona market checked on this site to answer that way, and the two answers are one age band apart.

In Brief

Are there all-inclusive resorts in Sedona?

One, and it will not take your children. Mii amo in Boynton Canyon prints the words all-inclusive Mii amo Journey and covers the room, three meals a day, a daily spa credit and, in its own words, all taxes, gratuities and fees. It also states that it welcomes guests aged 16 and over, and it sells fixed-length Journeys on set arrival days rather than nights, and it publishes no price. Every other property tested sells one of four lesser things: a percentage resort fee, a flat resort fee, a daily spending credit against an ordinary bill, or a breakfast capped at two people. The comparison worth making is with Greater Phoenix two hours south, where the same test on twelve properties also found exactly one genuine all-inclusive, and that one accepts nobody under 18.

Key takeaways

  • 0 of 11 sell an all-inclusive plan a family can book
  • The one genuine plan is 16 and over and publishes no price
  • Two resorts charge a percentage of the room rate rather than a sum
  • A Sedona-wide tourism assessment exists that nobody prices

What the rate covers, and what it does not

Read the fee structure before the fee amount. A percentage fee cannot be totalled in advance and rises with the room, so the family booking the larger unit pays the most for amenities aimed at adults. A flat fee can at least be added up, and only one property here publishes one. Two properties confirm a fee exists and refuse to say what it is, which makes a stay there impossible to cost from the operator's own site. And read the age lines, because five of the eleven publish an adults-only zone or a minimum age, and they are frequently the same properties selling a family suite.

What the bands mean

Sedona is a resort-fee town, and the structure matters more than the amount because most of these fees cannot be added up before you book. Two properties charge a percentage of the nightly room rate rather than a fixed sum, both at exactly 10 per cent, which is the commonest structure here and which means a family needing a bigger room pays more resort fee for the same yoga class. Only one property in the whole town publishes a flat dollar fee: 35 dollars plus tax, which the operator itself prints as 39.87, and it is the only one that shows the tax-inclusive figure. Two more confirm a fee exists and publish no amount anywhere, one of them only inside the terms of a discount offer. One publishes no resort fee at all. On top of that sits a charge nobody prices: one operator's FAQ documents a Local Tourism Assessment Fee collected from participating Sedona hotels, and no amount appears anywhere, including on that operator's own resort fee page. Parking is separate again, and one property charges 10 dollars a night for it on top of a fee its own FAQ says already covers valet.

The 10 resorts, and the plan to book at each

  • Boynton Canyon, Sedona

    Mii amo

    €€€€

    The only genuine all-inclusive product in Sedona, and the reason this page exists: it welcomes guests aged 16 and over.

    Room to book
    Nothing, for a family with a child under 16
    Pools and slides
    Access to the Enchantment pools, which that resort names as a main pool and adult pools: minimum height Not applicable · Not published
    Right for
    Two adults on a destination spa stay.
    Wrong for
    Any family with a child under sixteen, on the operator's own rule.
    The catch
    For the audience of this page the drawback is total: the one Sedona property that really does sell all-inclusive will not accept your children. On top of that it sells fixed-length Journeys rather than nights, and it publishes no price at all.

  • Off State Route 179, Sedona

    Arabella Hotel Sedona

    €€
    Best all round

    The closest thing Sedona has to a straight answer on cost: no resort fee published anywhere, on a policies page that itemises everything else.

    Room to book
    A room in the courtyard, though no occupancy figure is published
    Pools and slides
    Two heated pools: minimum height Not applicable · Not published · heated
    Right for
    A family who want to know the bill before they arrive, which almost nothing else here allows.
    Wrong for
    Anyone who wants to eat dinner where they sleep.
    The catch
    There is no spa, no kids club and no restaurant beyond breakfast, so evening meals mean driving. Guests must be 18 at check-in, which is a booking-party rule rather than an exclusion of children.

    Wrong for
    Anyone reading the homepage closely, for the reason below.
    The catch
    The property reopened under a new name and the operator's own homepage copy bleeds in amenity claims from sister hotels in other states, so a family can easily attribute a facility to Sedona that is somewhere else entirely. It was Poco Diablo, so any list naming both is counting one resort twice.

  • L'Auberge Lane, Uptown Sedona

    L'Auberge de Sedona

    €€€€

    A ten per cent nightly fee, two operator pages that disagree about what it buys, and the only mention of a Sedona-wide tourism assessment.

    Room to book
    A Cliffs Junior Suite Fireplace at 510 square feet, published for four with a king and a sleeper sofa

    Wrong for
    Anyone with a thirteen-year-old, counted as an adult in the operator's own booking form.
    The catch
    A family cannot compute this bill from the operator's own site. The resort fee is a percentage rather than an amount, the two pages describing it disagree on most of what it includes, and the tourism assessment on top has no published figure at all.

    Amara Resort and Spa

    €€€

    Ten per cent of the room rate, plus ten dollars a night for parking, on top of a fee the operator's own FAQ says already includes valet.

  • Boynton Canyon, Sedona

    Enchantment Resort

    €€€€

    A mandatory daily resort fee with no published amount, funding nine items of which two are barred to under-16s.

    Room to book
    A casita or suite, though no occupancy is published on the family page
    Kids club
    4 to 12 · Full day and half-day sessions, with an evening session published · runs through lunch · Not published
    Pools and slides
    A main pool and adult pools, named in the resort fee inclusions: minimum height Not applicable · Not published
    Right for
    A family with children aged four to twelve who want the only childcare in town.
    Wrong for
    A family with a teenager, and anyone who wants the fee quantified.
    The catch
    The two things the resort is most famous for, the spa and the wellness programming, are 16 and over, and they are two of the nine items the mandatory unpriced daily resort fee is said to cover. So a family with younger children pays for amenities it cannot use and cannot find out how much.

    The catch
    Of two pools the better one, a 25-metre heated lap pool, is the adult pool. And the two things a family most wants folded into a rate, breakfast and parking, are sold as two rates you must choose between. Everything else here is unestablished and is flagged as such rather than filled in from a third party.

Where not to book in Sedona

Four traps. The first is the percentage fee, charged by two properties at exactly 10 per cent of the nightly room rate, which cannot be totalled before booking and rises with the room size, so families are structurally the worst affected. The second is the fee with no number, at two more properties, one of which confirms the fee exists only inside the terms and conditions of a discount offer. The third is the Local Tourism Assessment Fee, documented by one operator as collected from participating Sedona hotels, with no amount published anywhere in the town, including on that operator's own resort fee page. And the fourth is the renamed property, because three Sedona resorts trade under new names and any list carrying both halves of a pair is counting one hotel twice: Poco Diablo is now Outbound Sedona, Sedona Rouge is now The Wilde, and Orchards Inn is now The Cliffs within L'Auberge. A fourth, Los Abrigados, is now a Hilton Vacation Club timeshare whose own site publishes ownership prices rather than a nightly rate.

When to book

Establish the fee structure first, then the age lines, then the room. On tax, Sedona straddles two counties and the city itself states two different combined figures depending on which side you are on, and one operator's own arithmetic corroborates the higher of the two. Those figures are carried here from city and state pages read through a search index rather than from a rendered page, because both the state revenue and city domains refused every direct request, so treat the tax line as needing one confirmation before you budget on it. The same caveat applies to the Hilton property on this page, where the brand site returned a 403 with an eight-hour retry window on every attempt and almost nothing could be established.

Family resorts in Sedona: FAQ

The questions parents ask most before paying for a package here.

There is one, and no family can book it. Mii amo in Boynton Canyon prints the words all-inclusive Mii amo Journey and covers the room, three meals a day, a daily spa credit and, in its own words, all taxes, gratuities and fees, which is genuinely more inclusive than most resorts calling themselves all-inclusive anywhere. It also states that it welcomes guests aged 16 and over, sells fixed-length Journeys on set arrival days rather than nights, and publishes no price. Of the other ten properties tested, none sells an all-inclusive board plan of any kind. What Sedona sells is a resort fee, and in most cases one you cannot total in advance.

For childcare, Enchantment Resort, because Camp Coyote for ages 4 to 12 is the only staffed kids club any Sedona property publishes, though its spa and its fitness studios are both 16 and over and the mandatory resort fee that helps fund them has no published amount. For a bill you can actually predict, Arabella Hotel Sedona, which publishes no resort fee at all on a policies page that itemises everything else, and which has two heated pools and free bikes. For a fee you can at least add up, Outbound Sedona at 35 dollars plus tax. Note that the resort with the kids club and the resort with the honest pricing are not the same place, which is the shape of this market.

The published charges say yes, and more importantly they say the total is hard to know in advance. Sedona straddles two counties and the city publishes two different combined lodging tax figures depending on which side of the line a property sits, both around 13 to 14 per cent, and one operator's own tax-inclusive arithmetic corroborates the higher of the two. On top of tax, two of the eleven properties charge 10 per cent of the room rate as a resort fee, one charges a flat 35 dollars plus tax, two confirm a fee and refuse to name it, one adds 10 dollars a night for parking on top of a fee that supposedly includes valet, and a town-wide tourism assessment exists that nobody prices. Only one property publishes no fee at all.

Not one in Sedona, and not one in Greater Phoenix either, which is worth saying plainly because both markets look like they should have one. In Sedona, eleven properties were tested and the only genuine all-inclusive welcomes guests aged 16 and over. In Greater Phoenix, twelve were tested and the only genuine all-inclusive accepts nobody under 18. Arizona sells resort access rather than board: a fee that bundles wifi, bikes, yoga and pool towels, and in the better cases a breakfast. If an all-inclusive family holiday is the actual requirement, this state is not where to look for it, and knowing that before you start comparing resorts is worth more than any ranking.

Wifi, pool and hot tub access, bikes, yoga or a wellness class, parking at some properties and equipment hire, and at no property tested does it include a meal. Two things make Sedona harder than most markets. The commonest structure is a percentage of the room rate rather than a dollar amount, charged by two properties at exactly 10 per cent, so the fee moves with the season and the room and cannot be totalled before booking. And at one property the two operator pages describing what the fee covers disagree on seven of twelve items, both live on the same day, so even the inclusion list is uncertain. Both readings are recorded here rather than reconciled.
