Within the profound beauty of Sedona's Boynton Canyon, a recognized energy vortex, Mii amo stands as a global leader among destination spas. Reopened in early 2023 after an extensive $40 million renovation, this intimate sanctuary (with just 23 guest accommodations) offers more than just treatments; it curates highly personalized, all-inclusive "Journeys" designed for profound wellbeing and self-discovery. The spa is the undeniable heart of Mii amo, a place where holistic wellness is not just practiced, but deeply embodied.



The Sanctuary and its Energy


The spa itself blends seamlessly into the dramatic red rock landscape. The architecture is Southwest modern meets minimalist chic, creating spaces that feel both awe-inspiring and deeply calming. Natural light floods the serene spa waiting lounge, offering expansive canyon views while guests enjoy herbal tea and await their treatments. The atmosphere encourages quiet reflection, enhanced by the resort's policy allowing guests to comfortably wear their plush robes throughout the property, even to meals.


Central to the Mii amo experience is the Crystal Grotto, a sacred meditation space located near the entrance. This circular room features a central crystal illuminated by a skylight, with the floor grounded by the canyon's red earth. Morning and evening rituals here set the tone for intention and release, deeply connecting guests to the unique energy of this Boynton Canyon Spa.



The Philosophy: Personalized Journeys


Mii amo operates on a unique model where guests book 3, 4, 7, or 10-night all-inclusive Mii amo Journeys. Each Journey includes accommodation, meals, access to all facilities and group activities, gratuities, and crucially, daily credits ($250 or $500 depending on package) specifically for spa treatments or consultations.


Before arrival, guests connect with a dedicated "Journey Guide" who helps curate a bespoke schedule based on individual intentions, whether physical rejuvenation, emotional healing, or spiritual exploration. This personalized approach, supported by an exceptional three-to-one staff-to-guest ratio, ensures a deeply tailored experience.



Spa Facilities: A Comprehensive Wellness Hub


The spa facilities are state-of-the-art and designed for holistic immersion:

  • Treatment Rooms: Numerous tranquil rooms host a vast array of therapies. Some luxury suites even feature private massage rooms.

  • Thermal Suite: Separate men's and women's locker rooms house saunas, steam rooms, and whirlpools/spa pools for pre- or post-treatment relaxation.

  • Movement Studios: A two-story fitness and movement studio hosts daily classes like yoga, Pilates, and breathwork. The well-equipped gym boasts state-of-the-art equipment with inspiring canyon views.

  • Pools: In addition to the main resort pool, Journey guests have exclusive access to a quieter spa plunge pool and garden area, offering enhanced seclusion.

  • Juice Bar: Adjacent to the main restaurant, the Juice Bar serves fresh juices, smoothies, and wellness tonics throughout the day, complementing the spa experience.

Service: Attentive and Intuitive Care


The service culture at Mii amo is a defining feature. Staff across all departments, and particularly the spa therapists and Journey Guides, show genuine care, attentiveness, and expertise. They create a supportive, non-judgmental environment that facilitates deep relaxation and personal exploration. Booking treatments requires advance planning, ideally months ahead, coordinated through your Journey Guide.
