The five-room Cozy Cactus Bed and
Breakfast is a warm, welcoming, and affordable Sedona bed-and-breakfast in a quiet neighborhood
overlooking stunning Bell Rock, with a hiking trail through the red rocks that
begins just outside the hotel's back gate. Their slogan -- "Not
fancy… Fabulous!" -- perfectly captures the vibe of this relaxed, family-run hotel, offering exceptional views and personal attention. Each room is different, but all have kitchenettes, king beds, private entrances,
and homey Southwestern decor. The free, three-course breakfast is exceptionally popular. Those who are willing to trade the intimate, special vibe for more features (such as a pool) may want to compare prices with the Sedona Rouge.

Scene
Homey and colorful Southwestern decor set against unobstructed desert views, a communal atmosphere focused on firepits and sumptuous breakfasts, and personal attention
Everything about the Cozy Cactus Bed and
Breakfast has a homey, lived-in feel, but it still manages to be spotless and
spacious, with privacy for those who want quiet time. A large patio with
several fire pits is available for guests who want to socialize with an adult beverage and
watch the sunset over the red rocks. The owners have given their personal touch
to every aspect of this bed-and-breakfast, from the warm Mexican blankets provided for
guests to wrap up in for a chilly night of stargazing, to the wide variety of
books found in guest rooms and around the common areas. The furniture and decor
are rustic and pure Southwest, with something interesting to see everywhere
you look. Some sinks are hand-painted, some mirrors handmade with Mexican tin, and found desert rocks and branches rest on mantels. Breakfast is a social affair, served around the communal kitchen table in the colorful and eclectic common room, and the owners and their friendly dog, Tequila, are Sedona experts,
and are happy to go the extra mile to make guests feel at home.
Location
A photographer's, hiker's, and mountain biker's dream, at the edge of red rock country
The Cozy Cactus Bed and Breakfast is located
in a quiet, residential neighborhood, surrounded by homes and inns, bordering Coconino
National Forest and red rock country. The area is a photographer’s dream, with
unobstructed views of Bell Rock, Courthouse Butte, and Castle Rock from the
rooms and patio. There is a hiking trail that leaves directly from the back gate, and the both the Sedona Golf Course and Oakcreek Country Club are a four-minute drive away. Guests can walk to shopping and restaurants, and old-town
Sedona is a scenic 15-minute drive away. Day trips can be taken to the
Grand Canyon. The bed-and-breakfast is easily accessible, close to Highway 89A.
Rooms
Warm, comfortable, spotless, and filled with Southwestern character; all have private entrances, kitchenettes, and free snacks
Rooms at the Cozy Cactus B&B are named
and individually decorated, but all are spotless, spacious, and full of quirky
Southwestern character. There are standard rooms, suites, and two-bedroom condos,
all with private entrances, king beds, modern bathrooms, and white-noise
machines. All have kitchenettes with microwaves, coffeemakers, and stashes
of snacks, popcorn, bottled water, coffee, tea, and hot chocolate. Each room
has unique touches, from an electric fireplace to antique sliding barn doors,
and lots of art and handicrafts. If stargazing isn’t enough, rooms have
flat-screens with cable and DVD players, and a DVD lending library. The Vortex Vista room has the best views and is the only room located on the second floor.
Features
Extensive three-course breakfast, free Wi-Fi, and patio fire pits
The Cozy Cactus Bed and Breakfast offers a delicious, plentiful,
and filling three-course breakfast every morning except Tuesday. (For Tuesday, guests can pick up a continental breakfast, and a few other extras, the night before.) The homemade muffins have a following, and guests can stay for a week
without seeing a repeat breakfast. There is free Wi-Fi and parking, and a
library of books and DVDs to borrow. The patio fire pits offer a beautiful
vantage point for watching the sun set over the red rocks.
