SEDONA, AZ. (April 2, 2024) – Sky Rock Sedona officially announces today its debut following an extensive property-wide transformation and transition to a Tribute Portfolio hotel by Marriott. Managed by Remington Hospitality, the 109-room boutique hotel and buzzy dining hotspot, Bar WooWoo, joins Tribute Portfolio’s growing global family of characterful, independent hotels drawn together by their passion for captivating design and their drive to create vibrant social scenes for guests and locals alike.
“We are incredibly excited to welcome guests to the new Sky Rock Sedona and serve as a portal into the destination for guests with our central location, captivating red rock views, sophisticated design, community-driven entertainment, personalized service and locally-inspired cuisine,” said General Manager Maureen Huffman. “Every piece of this hotel’s reimagination was carefully curated with our treasured destination in mind so guests may enjoy an experience that is deeply rooted in Sedona.”
Perfectly positioned within the destination, centrally located in town, yet walking distance to many trails, Sky Rock lends itself to the perfect launchpad for travelers looking to embark on days filled with adventures. The property’s stunning 360-degree views of Sedona’s Red Rocks are unmatched, with epic panoramic views of Snoopy Rock, Thunder Mountain and Coffee Pot Rock, among other formations.
DESIGN + ACCOMMODATIONS
Led by Santa Monica-based Dauntless Development, in collaboration with La Jolla-based design agency, Sixteenfifty, and Los Angeles-based firm, SANDdesign, Sky Rock was transformed into a modern, contemporary retreat that boasts a sleek and sophisticated style that melds harmoniously with the soulful spirit of Sedona. Each of Sky Rock’s guest rooms were purposefully designed to be a sanctuary for guests to retreat to, characterized by neutral tones, handmade leather headboards, minimalist furnishings, custom locally inspired artwork, and serene lighting. As a contrast, the lobby is bold and vibrant, featuring standout art pieces, amethyst-encrusted and wood walls, cozy velvet booths and statement furniture pieces that inspire and embody Sedona in a modern and artful way.
“A surprising and magical detail about the project is the amethyst-encrusted wall in the lobby designed to not only provide a stunning piece of Sedona’s natural beauty for all guests to experience, but also provides a magical moment for guests from the second they arrive. Amethyst crystals provide special energy and are known to radiate healing, soothing, and serene energy, this piece of art sets a mindfulness tone for guests’ stay and leaves them better than when they arrived,” said Amanda Mauceri, SVP development, Dauntless Development.
