Average daily low is 31, daily high 55.
It's very dry, and if the sun's out it's pleasant, if not, it's pretty cold.
1 inch of snow average in December.

We go to Sedona frequently. Stayed at Los Abrigados recently for a conference
my husband attended. It is a resort as
well as a timeshare place. Location is good - next door to Tlaquepaque, a very
quaint outdoor mall with shops, galleries and restaurants. Restaurants at Los Abrigados aren't bad. But we were
very unhappy with our accomodations. The room was very dark and very musty. It reminded me of a college dorm room.
Other attendees at the conference also complained about their rooms. I would highly recommend either Enchantment Resort (located in Boynton Canyon with
spectacular views all around you, a fairly new spa, very good restaurant)
or L'Auberge de Sedona (located along
Oak Creek - more of a woodsy feel, great
restaurant). Both places can be a bit
pricey. Sedona also has many good bed and breakfast places. I think you can
do so much better than Los Abrigados. Would also recommend Heartline Cafe. Very nice restaurant in town for either
lunch or dinner.

If it's not raining, It will be sunny and cool. I guess that there is rain during Christmas time about 1 year out of 3

thank you all for your quick replies. Uma--was the place you stayed at on Portal Lane? I think there are two places --Los Abrigados Resort & Spa
and Los Abrigados Lodge on the north highway. hmm--we are in the Resort and Spa-it is a timeshare deal so hopefully it is ok.

I'm assuming it was the resort. Just make sure they give you a room that is bright and not musty. Everyone's experience is different. Hope yours will be a good one. They do have good restaurants there. Would still recommend you go to Enchantment Resort for lunch one day. You will need to make reservations ahead of time for their Yavapai Room. And try Heartline Cafe, as well. Sedona is a magical place.
