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.

It was really like a 4.5. The resort was a great little oasis in the middle of desert. We were doing a couple days in Big Bend and needed a base camp. The kids loved the pool and the beds were comfortable and soft. The restaurant onsite was great! All the staff we interacted with were great! AC in the room worked wonderfully! Would definitely stay again if ever back in the area.

Liked: Amenities
The place is beautiful, but the mattresses sink horribly! We were hoping to get a good night sleep and it was impossible , They AC is fixed, we couldn’t adjust it to cooler temperature. The restaurant food is not savory at all! I ended ordering from the bakery the hot wings and those were good. Place is good for a day to explore, that was our experience!
Horrible beds, very old mattresses
Too many lights on the location is perfect to enjoy dark skies and this ruins it

Failed to indicate white water rafting not available in summer, room awkwardly outdated and tight. Staff very friendly. Weather wiped out star gazing, horseback riding and hot springs. Food mediocre. Pretty much a washout accept for the amazing vistas of Big Bend National Park which we were allowed access to even with flooding
