Just Landed... The Atomic
Guest rating: 5.0 / 5
Overview
Just Landed... The Atomic is a Mid-Century Modern vacation home located in the West Sedona neighborhood of Sedona, Arizona. The property channels a retro aesthetic while sitting just blocks from views of Coffee Pot Rock, offering a distinctive, character-filled alternative to a standard hotel stay. It is designed for small groups, couples, or families looking for a private home base in Red Rock Country.
Amenities & Comforts
The home comes fully equipped with a kitchen, microwave, oven/stove, and coffee bar for pour-over or French press brewing, plus cable TV, free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and heating for year-round comfort. A washer, crib, and smoke-free interior add convenience for longer stays or travel with young children. Outdoor living is a highlight, with a patio, hammocks, and an outdoor grill for evening relaxation after a day of hiking or biking.
Recreation & Extras
Guests have access to board games, a record player, and toys, lending the home a nostalgic, lived-in character that reviewers frequently note. Free parking, including a car port, is available on site, and the surrounding hilly neighborhood is known for quiet streets and visiting wildlife such as quail, rabbits, and javelina.
Location & Surroundings
West Sedona places guests within walking or short driving distance of numerous dining options, including Cafe Jose, Rascal Modern American Diner & Bar, Coffee Pot Restaurant, and Tortas de Fuego West Sedona, along with American-cuisine spots like Wildflower, The Golden Goose, Mesa Grill Sedona, and Canyon Breeze Restaurant. Two ARCO-area bus stations sit less than a kilometer away, and the location is close to noted attractions such as Tlaquepaque Arts and Crafts Village, Oak Creek Canyon, and Red Rock State Park. Flagstaff Pulliam Airport is roughly 32 km away, making it the more convenient regional airport for arrivals.
Best for
This home suits couples on a romantic getaway, groups of friends on a girls' weekend, or families wanting to reconnect, thanks to its full kitchen, multiple relaxation spaces (patio, hammocks), and games/record player for evenings in. Hikers and outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to trailheads and Sedona's iconic red rock scenery just steps or a short drive from the door.
Travel tips
Flying into Flagstaff Pulliam Airport (about 32 km away) is the most convenient option, while Prescott Regional Airport is a farther alternative at roughly 62 km. Two bus stations, Sedona ARCO and Coffee Pot Dr (Arco), are both under a kilometer from the home for those using local transit, though a car is recommended for reaching trailheads and further attractions like Oak Creek Canyon and Red Rock State Park. Because the home sits on a hill above the shops and restaurants of West Sedona, expect a short uphill walk or a quick drive to reach nearby dining.
What guests say
Reviewers consistently praise the home's location, describing it as a short walk or drive from trailheads, restaurants, grocery stores, and shops, and appreciate the clean, well-decorated interior stocked with kitchen essentials, linens, and a smart TV with reliable Wi-Fi. The car port and quiet, friendly neighborhood are also frequently mentioned positives, along with responsive, helpful hosts. The main recurring drawback noted is limited backyard privacy due to an unfenced yard and hedges that haven't fully grown in, though this doesn't appear to significantly diminish overall satisfaction.
