This property is an Oasis in the desert and against Big Bend National Park. The staff are amazing in every way possible, going out of their way with a smile on there face. The food was amazing and the grounds were well kept and lush. The room was spotless and the bed was so very comfortable. Can't wait to go back.

Some of the staff were less than helpful, I felt that the restaurant and bar staff were not well trained, at 4:30 pm they wouldn’t serve us because they were changing their lunch menu to dinner menu at 5:00pm at the bar we were the only guests and our son was not allowed to seat in, the sign posted at the door said no minors after 5:00pm, the room AC was very loud and the pool water chemicals were very harsh on our eyes, great architecture and the decor was very nicely done, the cleaning staff and front desk staff were very friendly and professional

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

Restaurant disappointed

Our stay was good, but it was very hot and hence it was their off-season. It was nice in that the place was quiet and peaceful. I loved the massage, and it was reasonably priced and included the tip. My husband loved the golf course. The grounds are also very nicely maintained. My only complaint was the fancier restaurant on property and their pricing. The prices are high to begin with but when we asked for more bread, we were not told that they would charge $11 for a very small loaf (the 1st loaf came with our meal). If they would’ve let us know that, we would not have asked for more bread as it was not worth $11. I asked if they had a side salad to order with my meal. The waiter said they did not but that they could split their salad entree on 2 plates for my husband and me. We were also not told that they would charge an additional $6 to put the same salad on 2 plates! I felt that charge was ridiculous being that we were already paying a hefty price for our 2 enteees and had ordered drinks. I would have appreciated being told of these additional charges.

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.
