On September 3, of 2014 we did pass through Sedona, on our way to Scottsdale, returning from the Grand Canyon. We fell in love with the beauty of its Red Rocks. We stopped at the Hyatt Piñon Pointe at that time and now we came back to stay here a couple of nights and to explore the breathtaking views.
Lovely Pueblo architecture and the view from this Hyatt Piñon Pointe is incredible!
The parking lot in front of our unit, our rental car is not visible here...
Husband Pieter is standing in the entrance of our first floor 1 bedroom unit #1712. There are two levels.
Like a little village it is nestled atop a hill and there are 98 2 bedroom and 11, 1 bedroom units.
From our unit, looking to the left...
We did drive up the I-17 from Scottsdale and than the Red Rock Scenic Byway 179 ←click it for some photos and on maps for seeing the above.
Feels good to be home away from home with lunch on the balcony...
Outside our balcony we have our own Red Rock formation...
Next to the square wooden garbage bin you see the stairs going down. There was a very neat walkway, connecting the different units for reaching the pool, restaurant and shops.
Everywhere we saw yellow Banksia roses...
Beautiful landscaping and meticulous gardens.
Can you imagine for having a view like this from the pool area?
It felt heavenly to stretch out and relax...
Yellow Banksia Roses
Stunning views of the Red Rocks all around us...
Even from the Wildflower Bread Company we could see the beautiful Red Rocks...
My vegetarian ginger carrot soup with fresh baked bread from the bakery.
Stepping outside of the restaurant you had this view!
You can read more about the Sedona Geology ←(click). The deep red color for which Sedona is famous, is because of the presence of hematite (iron oxide).
For March 26th this was perfect weather!
View from the Hyatt Piñon Pointe...
Indeed, some of the most spectacular and picturesque canyons and buttes found anywhere in the world!
You can see that we are on top of a hill and Hwy 179 is visible here below.
Wherever you turn, the view is breathtaking!
We both loved their architecture, so well incorporated into the scenery.
Great art work near the shops
We both loved this!
Cute turtle...
Sedona is at an elevation of 4500 feet and got established in 1902
Next I will take you sight seeing to Cathedral Rock and The Chapel of The Holy Cross as seen on above's map...
