My Solo Trip to Sedona, Arizona

I have wanted to visit this beautiful place for so long. I’m so grateful that I got to get away for a few days.I flew into Flagstaff and rented a car. I agonized over where to stay because there are so many fabulous spas and Airbnbs. In the end, because I was traveling alone, I decided on a basic hotel (The Sedona Rouge Hotel). It felt safe and I wasn’t looking to spend a lot of time at the spa. I wanted to hike. I will definitely come back for a more romantic trip and stay in a nicer place. I loved the location and that my room had a fire place.I did try the spa for a treatment and it was very nice. I also got a quick shoulder rub at Sedona’s New Day Spa and loved it.It’s so important to think through your trip and what you want to get out of it. That can be such a great guide when you are overwhelmed with all of the choices.GET MOVING:West Fork Trail - I got there super early (6:30 am) and I’m so glad I did in order to have it to myself.
