Hilton Vacation Club Los Abrigados Resort & Spa Sedona
An older Sedona resort offering spacious condo units, easy access to local stores, and expansive nature grounds.
The verdict
Pick a traveller type to re-weight the scores and re-rank the rooms around what you actually care about.
This older resort offers one-bedroom condo units with partial kitchens and quiet grounds tucked away from the main drag. Guests appreciate the spacious layouts, easy check-in process, and solid value for the nightly rate. However, accommodations show noticeable age with 1970s-style decor, occasional maintenance oversights like loose bathtub handles, and inconsistent upkeep. 285

- “We were there before the refurbs started, I think (2009), but thought it was a nice place even then. It is in a great location, right there at Tlaquepaque Arts & Crafts Village.” 11
- “the Sedona Summit Hilton Grand Vacations is so perfectly located about a quarter of a mile away there's actually hiking pass it's a recreational area with an Amphitheater outdoor Amphitheater and Hiking pass to go on so you can see where we are right now we could get back to the resort in 10 minutes and yet we're surrounded by The Canyons” On camera214:39
