PB hotel design editorial

Forty steel piers rise from a restored ancient waterway in Sedona's Red Rock Country, each supporting one of the 40 bronze-tinted glass cubes that together form Ambiente, a Landscape Hotel — North America's first landscape hotel, which arrived in 2023. Designed by ASUL Architects of Phoenix alongside Stephen Thompson of Architect Studio in Scottsdale, with landscape work by Krizan Associates of San Diego, the project's central commitment is one of elevation rather than imposition: the 576-square-foot atriums hover above the land rather than disrupting it, allowing the ancient creek corridor beneath to continue its ecological work undisturbed. From above, the weathered Cor-Ten-toned cladding and dark steel framing cause the buildings to nearly dissolve into the juniper and pinyon pine canopy, the red sandstone buttes of Cathedral Rock and Courthouse Mesa rising beyond. Inside, the design logic stays consistent. Corner-wrapped floor-to-ceiling glazing frames the red rock panorama as something closer to a living painting than a window view, while live-edge walnut tables, linen sectionals in warm sand tones, and hand-applied textural wallcoverings in muted ochre and ash keep the palette earthbound. The restaurant, Forty1, extends the mood with channeled leather banquettes, exposed wood-beam ceilings, and brass-accented dining chairs — a room that suggests a serious kitchen has arrived in the high desert without announcing itself too loudly. The freeform pool terrace, ringed with concrete fire bowls and low-slung loungers, completes a property that treats landscape not as backdrop but as the fundamental material.

"My wife and I recently stayed at Ambiente for a vacation, and it exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional, the accommodations were beautifully designed, and the entire property offered the perfect balance of luxury, comfort, and relaxation. The peaceful atmosphere allowed us to truly unwind, while the stunning views and thoughtful amenities made every moment special. The staff was friendly, attentive, and genuinely committed to making our stay memorable. We especially appreciated the attention to detail throughout the property, which created a unique and unforgettable experience. Ambiente was the perfect getaway for us, and we left feeling refreshed, recharged, and already looking forward to our next visit. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for a first-class vacation experience."

"The entire Ambiente experience is 5 star, top notch!!! From the welcome to departure. Every person I encountered was MORE than a pleasure. I would like to give some specific names. Michael escorted me to me room. He was so pleasant and helpful. He set a very high bar in a short time. Alana was my server at Forty1 and she was delightful and helped me to unwind and slow down so that I could enjoy the food and the space. Sage was a joy. Rene' was so patient. I was looking for a nail salon to repair a nail. He took me to 3! Made suggestions an everything! Kat's overall pleasant demeanor and vibe made it feel as if I was the only customer in a space full of people. My experience at Velvet had me wanting to risk it all and move to Sedona!! The atmosphere was so serene and the young ladies who provided my services were sweet, polite and caring. The ensured that everything was just right, Michelle, Brook & Karen had me walking on air when I left. Spending the day being pampered by these ladies was one of the best parts of my Sedona visit. Ambiente - chef's kiss!! Oh and speaking of the Chef. I did not meet that person but baby!!! EVERY single thing I ate was disco on my palate. I may have dated myself with disco but you get my point. I will never forget my experience for the people. I will return to enjoy this rustic oasis that is Sedona as well as the class and elegance of Ambiente. It's worth EVERY dime!"

"We had a wonderful 3-night stay! Our 25th wedding anniversary stay was absolutely magical! The staff was incredibly friendly and efficient, always ready to help. You can text them and get an answer for whatever you need. The spa facilities are top-notch. Our room/casita felt luxurious and private. The bed was incredibly comfortable. The views of the red rocks were spectacular; they never get old! We love the roof top deck with firepit too! We'll definitely be back! Thank you Ambiente!!!"
