Set on the verdant banks of Oak Creek, the resort offers an intimate escape where the soothing sounds of flowing water meet the dramatic backdrop of Sedona’s red rocks. Whether you are staying in a detached Creekside Cottage with a private outdoor shower or enjoying a prix fixe dinner under a canopy of sycamore trees, L’Auberge is designed for deep connection and renewal.
For a resort of this caliber, the journey should be as refined as the destination. Vitesse Sedona provides the ultimate luxury transportation experience, ensuring that your arrival at this secluded enclave is seamless and stress-free. From specialized airport transfers to chauffeured winery tours, Vitesse allows you to focus on the beauty of the canyon while we handle the logistics.
