El Portal Sedona Hotel

El Portal Sedona Hotel is a 12‑room, adobe‑style luxury boutique inn next to Tlaquepaque, known for its arts‑and‑crafts design, personal service, and pet‑friendly policy with no pet fees.

Setting and vibe

• Located on the historic Schnebly family homestead, steps from Tlaquepaque Arts & Crafts Village and a short walk to Oak Creek, so you’re very close to shops, galleries, and restaurants.
• Built as a handcrafted adobe hacienda with courtyards and firepits; each room is uniquely decorated with antique and custom furniture, giving a historic Southwestern, arts‑and‑crafts feel rather than a chain‑hotel look.

Rooms and amenities

• Only 12 suites, each different; features can include fireplaces, Jacuzzis or claw‑foot tubs, steam showers, pet patios with firepits, and private gardens or balconies with red‑rock or courtyard views.
• All rooms have luxury linens, Egyptian‑cotton sheets, memory‑foam beds, mini‑fridge, bathrobes, designer toiletries, and streaming‑enabled TVs; some sleep 2, others up to 4 with sofa beds.
• Guests consistently praise the quiet, homelike atmosphere, evening courtyard fire, and small touches like complimentary snacks and beverages in the lobby.

On‑site facilities

• Small outdoor pool, spa and wellness center, and fitness access, plus free parking and high‑speed Wi‑Fi.
• On‑site tasting room / bar and vineyard‑related experiences, plus concierge help with tours, hiking advice, and local dining reservations.

Pet‑friendly and service style

• AAA Four Diamond boutique hotel that is fully pet‑friendly with no pet fees, offering pet patios/yards in several suites and a very welcoming attitude toward dogs.
• Family‑run; reviews highlight exceptionally warm, hands‑on hospitality from the owners and staff, often describing it as “like staying at a friend’s hacienda.”

Typical rates (high level)

• Recent meta‑search data shows rates often starting in the high‑200s USD, with average stays commonly higher depending on room type and season.

El Portal Sedona Hotel does not run its own spa menu; instead, guests get complimentary access to the neighboring Sedona Spa at Los Abrigados, where you pay for whatever treatments you book.

How spa access works

• As an El Portal guest you receive free day passes to Sedona Spa next door (pool, gym, spa facilities).
• Sedona Spa’s facilities include eucalyptus steam rooms, saunas, showers, jacuzzi, fitness center, and fitness classes like yoga and aquafit.

Treatments available (next‑door Sedona Spa)

• Sedona Spa offers a full menu of massages, body treatments/scrubs, facials, and combo spa/golf packages, plus energy and wellness services.
• Example services mentioned: aromatherapy and deep‑tissue massages, body scrubs such as Hiker’s Paradise magnesium treatment and Turquoise Sage salt scrub, and Sedona facials.

Prices and day‑use fees

• The online spa menu notes that treatment prices are subject to change and are not fully itemized publicly, so there is no reliable per‑treatment dollar list to quote.
• For facility access alone (not needed for El Portal guests), current day‑pass rates at Sedona Spa are:
  • Single: 55 USD, couple: 100 USD, family: 150 USD, plus 25 USD per additional child.​
• Monthly memberships run 110 / 190 / 260 USD (single / couple / family), with higher annual options.​

How to get exact treatment prices

• Call Sedona Spa directly (number on sedonaspa.com) and ask for the current treatment menu and rates for your visit window.
• Mention that you’re staying at El Portal so they know you already have facility access and only need pricing for massages, facials, or packages.
