Breathtaking!!!

This home is a true treasure. I’ve stayed in Sedona many times, but this place was the best. Location, design, comfort, conveniences. The views, hot tub and hiking were the highlights. Our boys loved exploring around the property and even got a panoramic view including Bell Rock a short walk up the hill!

Amazing Holiday Getaway

Our family had a wonderful holiday get away at "A Stay Above it All" Palisades in Sedona. The home is literally above it all in the picturesque red rocks with fantastic views from every direction you look! We loved being encompassed by nature and watched a big buck on the hillside and even came across several javelina along the side of the road. We throughly enjoyed the warm weather and sunshine on the sprawling deck while eating meals and playing games during the day; which transformed into a stargazers delight in the evenings. The large (and very clean) hot tub was a perfect way to end the day after exploring all Sedona has to offer.The bedrooms were very spacious and offered walk in closets, bathrooms with large tubs and walk-in showers to suit everyone's needs. The kitchen is modern and so well stocked with essentials we were able to make our own indulgent meal of grilled steak and many delicious sides. The curation of art in this property provided an aesthetic collection that became the topic of many conversations. Our host was an absolute dream! So incredibly helpful with the best local dining choices and very responsive to any questions. Our family made great memories here for the holidays and we are so grateful for this special space to share time with our loved ones! We plan to come back again to this beautiful property, and can't wait for our next stay!

Palisades Review

We stayed in this house with another couple and it was everything we anticipated and more. It actually had more room than we needed but we loved every aspect of the house and surrounding area. The house has the advantage of two master suites so that neither couple had to stay in a guest bedroom. The house itself has a great vibe and was very well equipped with appliances, dishes, and pantry items. The location is unbeatable with an easy drive to multiple trailheads and activities. Jerry was instantly responsive to any questions and requests that we had and was helpful with local knowledge of restaurants and attractions. Although the house in part of a neighborhood of homes, it has a lot of privacy and beautiful views of the surrounding mountains and mesas. I would recommend this house to anyone considering a visit to this area.

Sedona Beauty!

Palisades Villa was amazing! The location can’t be beat, a few blocks from everything as far as shopping, dining and the arts, and you will never tire of the view from the deck and in various room of the house. It is very private and serene, and the house has everything you could need. We used it as our base to drive all around as this was our first trip to Sedona, but as much as we loved our travels, we looked forward to returning to the house for beautiful sunsets and a really restful night’s sleep! If we make it back to Sedona, we hope to stay there again! Take a short ride up to the Sedona airport and have a meal at the Mesa Grill! It is delicious and portions are huge! Also don’t miss the Tlaquepaque Village! It’s beautiful architecture will amaze you that it isn’t really old, and the shops and restaurants are so nice. The Secret Garden Cafe is perfect and the Chai Spot is also delicious!

Quiet, Wonderful Views, Well appointed

We were a family of 4, ages 53-75. The house has plenty of room for 6. The bedrooms are spacious. The common room is light and open. The kitchen is very well appointed with appliances and things for all food prep. The host, Jerry is super responsive and genuinely wants you to love and appreciate the home. Location is quite good. Peaceful. Quiet. It is away from the bustle but close enough for easy access. Note that in this location, traffic can be something to contend with once you get moving toward Sedona. The hiking is phenomenal. Also very popular but with a little work you can find some less traversed areas. Best to get an early start! We would absolutely stay here again.

Stunning Desert Retreat

Beautiful property wonderfully presented. We found the kitchen a joy to work in, fully equipped at a professional level, with views over the stunning cliffs to the east of Sedona. The quiet neighbourhood, and comfortable surroundings found us sipping coffee at sunrise and enjoying drinks at sunset, followed by stunning stargazing. Would we come back? Absolutely, in a heartbeat.
