About this property

Desert Jewel in Red Rock country

Beautiful location in the last remaining homestead still undeveloped in Sedona. The views from property are stunning.

The room is equipped with a king bed and cute kitchen with micro, 2burner stove, toaster oven, full size fridge with auto ice maker, dishwasher, outdoor bbq, Keurig and mr coffee, coffee maker.
There is no living room but a cute breakfast nook that you can sit and play cards or use your computer. We also have a huge selection of board games! Or just enjoy a home cooked meal. There is a comfy chair to relax in.
We keep cupboards stocked with typical kitchen stuff. Salt pepper, etc

The WiFi is usually great, sometimes in inclement weather we get outages and the cell service can be iffy if your not on Verizon. ATT is not great, but doable.

The TV is. 48” flat screen, connected to Direct TV. TiVo if you want to record your favorite game to watch later. We have Netflix too!

The patio boasts a beautiful vantage point of Cathedral Rock the most photographed rock in Arizona. It’s very pleasant just to relax outside and enjoy the beautiful view of Cathedral Rock either from the patio of from your hot tub.
The property is peaceful and private and a great spot to sit during the morning sunrise or evening sunset.

In this courtyard you have a hot tub that is private to your casita. You must request it before your stay for very hot months. We have a pool that might be nicer.

We offer EBike rentals from our shop in west sedona, ask us about our rates and availability during your stay. It’s fun to go exploring on them.
Hiking and biking are right out your front and back door. No need to even leave the property to face the traffic and the hectic tourist scene. This is where people come to ride or hike from in town, the area is not as hustle and bustle, more romantic. Very peaceful.

We do not like multiple cars, travel trailers or atvs parked in our driveway tho, so if you are traveling with one, we will not allow on property. We only have so much parking.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

This was the perfect spot for us to spend a week. The view can’t be beat, the host was friendly and we took advantage of the bike tour and pizza party on Friday night and loved connecting with others. We are looking forward to going back (again and again and again).

Great base for exploring the Sedona and Verde Valley regions

Really enjoyed our stay on the Red Rock Loop Trail. The unit was cozy and decently equipped for our needs. The location is excellent - looking across at Cathederal Rock and very quiet. Nice outdoor space to enjoy the sunsets. Access to the town was straightforward and we managed to avoid the bottlenecks down-town. Numerous good restaurants and three supermarkets within a short drive. Carolyn was very friendly and responsive.

Weekend away from the crowds

a beautiful studio on the outskirts of Sedona with an amazing view. It was the perfect location to avoid the crowds of Sedona. Relaxing in the hot tub while starring at the stars capped off most of our nights.

My spouse and I enjoyed staying at Desert Jewel for many reasons. It is a beautiful property with unique decor. The host was welcoming upon arrival as well as throughout our stay. The property had an amazing view of the Red Rocks. It is about 10 to 15 minutes from shopping and dining - close enough yet far enough to be away from it all.There is an outside sitting area and a hot tub which we used and enjoyed. We were even invited to a dinner on our last night which we thoroughly enjoyed. We recommend staying here and would stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Carolyn Grebenstein

Host profile image
I have lived in Sedona for 50+ yrs. I love being a host, not just because it helps us afford to live here, but I have also met so many wonderful people through the years, many return yr after yr. I love everyone’s story and getting to know so many interesting people.

Why they chose this property

I loved the view , of course, but the neighborhood is very quiet, you don’t feel like you’re in the middle of a city. The area is great for walking, biking, hiking without leaving the area. Lots of trails and interesting parks nearby.

What makes this property unique

The view, our amenities.
We have private hot tubs and a sm pond pool to relax in in the summer.
