What guests say
8.4 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 313 guest reviews
Lajitas Golf Resort earns consistent praise for its stunning desert setting near Big Bend National Park, quality dining, and attentive staff, making it a genuinely special destination. However, recurring complaints about overly soft beds, aging infrastructure in the main building, a lack of elevators, and pricing that guests feel doesn't match the experience suggest the property needs meaningful updates to justify its rates. Operationally, issues like power outages, inconsistent check-in, and billing errors are concerns worth noting before booking.
