Fly into Phoenix Sky Harbor (PHX), which is a 2-hour drive north via I-17 and Hwy 179. The descent down the canyon into Uptown Sedona is paved but steep. Valet parking is available at the resort entrance.
Book your creekside table at Cress on Oak Creek at least 30 days in advance, as tables overlooking the water are highly requested by outside guests. Complimentary stargazing sessions are held on-site weekly.
The resort is located just below Uptown Sedona, which offers great walkable access to shops but also means you'll hear occasional street traffic and pedestrian chatter from the upper terraces during busy weekends. Some older lodge rooms are also compact.
