20th anniversary trip

This was a beautiful resort, full of inviting and friendly staff, from the front office, housekeepers, bartender, wait staff, activities director, horse guide, and pool guy - excellent service everywhere! The bed was super comfortable, and the food and drinks were excellent. Beautiful views! Highly recommend!

Western Charm in the Desert

We had a wonderful time. The restaurant had a hacienda style atmosphere overlooking the golf course. The food was pricey but super delicious. Our server was fantastic. The grounds/landscaping were beautifully maintained and the Boardwalk was charming with a rustic, old western town vibe. The room was our least favorite in that the bathroom was very small and certain areas are showing signs of aging. The bed was incredibly plush and comfortable. Overall, a great experience. Would definitely recommend.

The Lajitas golf resort is really the best place to stay around the area. Nice amenities, quiet, a very nice restaurant and comfortable rooms. A beautiful golf course annd well maintained lawn and Landscape. Our stay was pleasant. Some downsides were the cost of dining was ridiculous. There are some other options….super casual. It was extreme heat when we visited and the pool was very dirty. Cloudy and lots of particles floating around, and no pool towels left. We didn’t stay long, it felt gross. The kids room was comfortable, but there were some bugs in my daughter’s bed overnight. It wasn’t worth complaining as the resort was fully booked and you don’t have many other nice choices, so we just went with it. Our king room was very nice and comfy, but we had an unpleasant odor that lingered. If I come back to this area, overall, I would stay here again as options are limited.

A weekend away at Lajitas is just what my soul needed. The grounds are so beautifully maintained, it just gives me peace to sit and admire it. Many walking/hiking trails nearby and a beautiful, mostly quiet pool to enjoy. The restaurant, coffee shop and general store were all excellent as well.

Beautiful property grounds. Great service staff in all areas. Pool needed cleaning, access gate to pool area on departing did not make sense. Coffee maker in room didn’t work (was replaced after 2nd request). Plus bedside lamp window side did not work. Plus apparently had animals roaming overhead on the roof waking us up at 3:30 am with their noise. Despite the above we enjoyed our visit to Lajitas/ Big Bend.

The property could use some serious updating and a paint job, especially at the entrance. The bed was extremely soft and we felt like we were sinking in it. The bathroom was outdated. Other than that, the staff was incredibly helpful, room was clean and we enjoyed our stay. I will say, however, that the cost was VERY overpriced for a property in disrepair. We would not be back for that reason.

The outdoor facilities, pool and restaurant are beautiful. Grounds are well maintained. Our room was unacceptable. I called upon check in to ask to be moved but was told they could not accommodate. Another call to request a microwave which never arrived. Housekeeping came in on our second day but didn't bring full towel set plus other essentials. I called and asked for these items but they never arrived.
