Dear Arizona Travel:
I am planning a trip to Sedona in November 2010. I am traveling alone and do not plan to rent a car. I am trying to find a map that shows the locations of the shopping areas relative to hotels, spas. Where do I find this?

Hi, Linda.
Your best bet is to secure a hotel in Uptown Sedona on in/near Tlaquepaque. I created a Google Map for you, showing where the most popular hotels (red beds) are in relation to spas (blue massage) and shopping (yellow $ signs).
I would suggest changing your plans and getting a rental car; Sedona, while a relatively small city, is spread out over about 18 square miles, and traveling on foot to some of the best parts of the area is highly impractical, if not impossible (i.e. Oak Creek Canyon, Boynton Canyon, nearby wineries in Page Springs, etc.) There are few taxicabs and the cost of cabs and an airport shuttle would likely equal or exceed the cost of a rental car. If you’re dead set on not getting a car, stay in Uptown at any of the hotels I marked on the map, or at the Los Abrigados Resort & Spa or El Portal, both of which share the grounds with Tlaquepaque (shopping village.)
