Our stay at the Highlands Resort was quite enjoyable, with a peaceful atmosphere and lovely surroundings. The location offered easy access to nearby attractions like Sedona and Cottonwood, making it a great base for exploring. However, the accommodations were a bit cramped, and the kitchen could have used more counter space for cooking. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and I'd consider returning with a few adjustments in mind.

My stay at The Highland's Resort @ Verde Ridge was truly great! The resort is well-placed for exploring both Sedona and the quieter areas of Cottonwood and Jerome. The staff was attentive, and the outdoor spaces, including the pool and spas, were perfect for relaxation. However, I did encounter some issues with weak internet in the room and noticed that cell phone service could be spotty at times. Overall, it's a lovely place to unwind, especially if you're seeking a tranquil retreat.

Our stay at the resort was marked by both pleasant experiences and some challenges. The staff were very attentive and proactive in addressing our concerns, and the cleanliness of the rooms left a positive impression on us. However, the limited dining options and somewhat complicated layout of our unit detracted from the overall enjoyment. I felt that while the value for the price was reasonable, there were areas that could use improvement.

The Highlands Resort offers a wonderful getaway with spacious accommodations and a peaceful atmosphere, perfect for those looking to explore Sedona. The staff is exceptionally helpful, and the outdoor areas, including the pool and fire pit, are delightful for relaxation after a day of adventure. However, be aware of the extra fees for RCI guests, which can come as a surprise, and while the location is great, the resort has limited on-site activities, which may not appeal to everyone.
