Living Room

The Living Room features a sunken seating lounge allowing guests to relax and connect to the earth, while private niches line the perimeter of the room and offer connection to the sky and sun. The wood-burning fireplace adds warmth to the room.

Crystal Grotto

One of the most beloved spaces of our Sedona, Arizona, spa the Crystal Grotto has been refreshed and remains an ideal site for daily meditation and reflection. This circular space, with its earthen floor and domed ceiling, centers around a pedestal of petrified wood featuring a gentle fountain and an illuminated quartz crystal. Lit by an aperture overhead, it is designed so that once a year, on the summer solstice, a beam of sunlight strikes the crystal, connecting earth and sky.

Energy of Boynton

Mii amo is nestled in one of the most special locations of the Sedona, Arizona region – Boynton Canyon.  Naturally formed in the shape of a horseshoe, the canyon surrounds and envelopes the resort and all who enter.

Over time, the landscape of Boynton Canyon was formed with high concentrations of iron and quartz within its sandstone cliffs. The iron that oxidized over thousands of years gives this land its iconic red coloring, creating beautiful red rock walls and soft sand trails beneath our feet. Iron naturally emits a higher level of magnetic energy, while quartz is a conductor that amplifies the electric energy field of the area. This rare combination is what creates the high electromagnetic energy that has made the Sedona region so popular for thousands of years.

It is this higher frequency of energy that amplifies our sense of connection to oneself and nature within this beautiful place. The energy of Boynton Canyon is very balanced, offering guests a grounded, nurturing spirit while also inspiring a path of personal discovery and connection to nature.

The word vortex is commonly used to describe this energy. A vortex is simply a circular movement and flow of energy. There are specific locations where concentrated currents of circular energy flow from the Earth, commonly referred to as vortex sites. Boynton Canyon is one of the most highly concentrated energy centers in Sedona, offering guests an opportunity to experience and feel the raw and awe-inspiring energy found within vortex sites.
