Red Cliffs Lodge

We were so surprised by the setting we stayed an extra night. Cabins are a nice western style, not “rustic”, face the Colorado River, with direct access and look toward towering red sandstone cliffs. They’re fully furnished with microwave, fridge and coffee maker. Furnishings are nice, comfortable, clean and modern. Plan ahead for drinking water. They do the best they can with their wells, but constrained by what comes out while softening the hard water, there was too much salt for us. The dedicated, RO drinking water wasn’t much better, possibly a membrane issue. We pack water when traveling and picked up an extra gallon in Moab; handled. They said, before we booked they were remodeling with limited amenities. Didn’t notice, took all our meals at the temporary restaurant, chef was fantastic and while they don’t say, cooked to order! View was outstanding, they are everywhere on property and we spent time walking it. Absolutely plan to return, enjoyed even during the middle of winter and the shoulder rates are almost free. Highly recommend!

The setting of this property is pretty special. It is a 20 minute drive over a windy road with towering red rocks and the Colorado river flowing through to reach this property from downtown Moab. We had a room facing the river which we paid suite night upgrades for. The room was cozy, comfortable and upgraded with a fan, steamer and extremely comfortable bed. So why the low stars? The property is undergoing a major renovation and there is no wifi or phones in the room. This would not be an issue but given the remote location and no cell coverage this is a major problem. First if you are missing anything and want to call front desk there is no way to reach them because there is no phone in the room and your cell is on SOS and there is no wifi. Make shift Lobby is a good walk over a graveled path by ford bronco rental. There is also a makeshift restaurant there where the service was good but breakfast just super average and the only wifi you get is by that makeshift lobby. In today’s connected world not having basic wifi is unacceptable especially if you have an emergency. I would expect Marriott to be aware and inform guests ahead of time. The property failed to do this prior to our arrival. It’s just unacceptable to not let us know about this prior to arrival. Also make a note anytime you drive anywhere - downtown, Arches, Canyonlands etc you will have to drive 20 or so minutes more to just get out to town. I would not recognize this property until the construction ends. Stay at other Marriott properties in town

I'm giving this a 4 stars with the caveat that it could be a 5 star property after the renovation. The grounds and views are unmatched and the hotel rooms are decorated beautifully however there were some issues. The staff is amazing so they do help! Unfortunately we had a...

I'm giving this a 4 stars with the caveat that it could be a 5 star property after the renovation. The grounds and views are unmatched and the hotel rooms are decorated beautifully however there were some issues. The staff is amazing so they do help! Unfortunately we had a room that had a room connector door and when the guests in the room checked in late they were also ready to party. The rooms do not have carpet and while this makes for a much better looking and feeling room there needs to some sound proofing added-we stuffed an extra blanket at the floor but it only helped a little. When we went to call the front desk to cope with the problem we realized there were no phones in the room. Luckily even with spotty cell coverage I managed to call from my cell phone to have them address the issue. The kitchenette area is very nice however while it has a microwave, a toaster, and a mini fridge it doesnt have plates, cutlery or glasses and it has a very large farm house sink for some reason. The shower and toilet are separated by a door yet there are no towel racks to hang the towels up after you use them. The restaurant was moved to a different part of the property till the main lodge is finished but the staff did an amazing job hosting our meals, and the menu's were spot on.

Great scenery around lodge beautiful updated and clean room. Unfortunately the main lodge was under construction so limited eating area to be so far out of town. Unfortunately the people in the next room got into a huge fight at midnight which woke us up. No one answered at the...

Great scenery around lodge beautiful updated and clean room. Unfortunately the main lodge was under construction so limited eating area to be so far out of town. Unfortunately the people in the next room got into a huge fight at midnight which woke us up. No one answered at the front desk, don’t believe there is anyone available for problems in the middle of the night.

We got the King river suite for the view of the river but our view was almost completely blocked by trees. We asked to be moved over to another room and was told they had already upgraded us. ( but we paid full amount for the upgrade ). We couldn't use the lodge because it was under renovation and we were not told when we booked the room! The filtered water was so salty that we had to melt ice from their ice machine to have something to drink and make coffee. We went into Moab and bought water the next morning. This place is very Expensive over $400 a night and not worth $200. Worst part of our vacation. Good thing we only booked 2 days

Cody has our deep appreciation for going out of his way in speaking with our three sons to arrange and personally deliver special Mother's Day desserts for their mom. He was awesome and the highlight of our stay there! It helped to mitigate some of our disappointments. We arrived 5/11 for 3 nights after hiking in Mesa Verde and driving 5 hours looking forward to a cold beer and wine to learn you had no liquor license during the renovation. Your website raved about your cocktail and bar with no notice at all. By the time you drove 30 minutes from town, you can't make a trip back to a grocery. We should have been told ahead of time!! Your Marriott Bonvoy affiliation apparently means little. We were traveling with 3 other couples, one of whom booked their room through AAA with no Marriott status and was upgraded to a river cabin. I am a Lifetime Platinum and had a Creekside Room, which didn't even have a creek. The $20 parking fee is ridiculous given that you have a nearly unlimited gravel lot on which to park, and the rooms are far apart. It is price gouging when the registration and food are remote during the renovation and a car is a necessity. I requested and was granted a refund, but it is still offensive. There is spotty cell coverage and no land lines in the rooms. For the most part the staff were nice and tried hard to deal with the challenges of a renovation. However, there were systemic problems that make what should be a great property merely mediocre.

This rating is considering that the resort is undergoing massive renovation. This rating addresses the location, the lodging and overall idea of the ranch that has morphed into a high end resort emphasizing the availability of the outdoor life. It is currently a work in progress. I am optimistic that the end product will be grand. Marriott affiliation is a plus.

You will not find a better location if your visit takes you to Moab. We stayed in the River Cabins which were recently redone. Right from our deck was the Colorado River. The cabins have a refrigerator, microwave, small coffee pot (2 cup and you use packets). They have utensils , plates and glasses (quantity 2 each). We brought in our own food for sandwiches, refreshments of your choice and bottled water. I highly recommend bottled water as the filtered water may not be for everyone’s liking. The pool is excellent. They have laundry facilities and a children’s play area. Horseback stables for riding can be seen from property. The staff was excellent and tried very hard to make your stay enjoyable. Food was available. Definitely will return.

The view from our balcony overlooking the rocks was spectacular. The room itself was clean and comfortable but rather dark and small, shortcomings outweighed by the view. We were there for 2 nights and there was no housekeeping on the second day so we ran out of paper cups.

If I'd known it was under renovation, I would not have booked there. The room was fine, but everything else was closed down. They did a joke of a job with their make shift breakfast buffet, and we had a 15 minute walk, just to get to the room they...

If I'd known it was under renovation, I would not have booked there. The room was fine, but everything else was closed down. They did a joke of a job with their make shift breakfast buffet, and we had a 15 minute walk, just to get to the room they were using. No phones in the room and zero wifi available. The water was not drinkable; it was disgusting and they did not provide any other water. The staff didn't care at all about their guests, in fact they treated us like we were a nuisance. The Food and Beverage "director" stuck his ungloved hands into the food on more than one occasion. Example: grabbing cheese slices and tomatoes with his bare hands on a buffet, and walking away. I didn't want anything after that! That this place has been designated a Marriott Resort is a joke, and Marriott should be ashamed of themselves.

If you’re going to visit Moab, this is the place to be! Why do a trip to see the red cliffs if you can stay literally in the midst of them? You can sightsee by stepping outside your room and walking along the Colorado River. In the summer take a refreshing dip in the pool. We stayed in a river suite and it’s worth it. Big space, riverfront patio, nice shower with extra hand shower, filtered water tap, super pet friendly, everybody was nice and in good spirits - super friendly service throughout. If any complaints it would be that the fridge wasn’t super cool but it did the job, and the steps down to the river had loose stones so you have to be careful. Those things did not take away from a 5 star experience though. There are rafting excursions that stop here for lunch as this is the place to be. And geese wandering along the river!

Beautiful setting and lovely rooms. They were experiencing some WiFi issues but worked around it quickly and got us checked in. Thoroughly enjoyed the stunning surroundings. Rooms recently updated and very comfortable. Highly recommend.

A very secluded and serene property surrounded by stunning red cliffs! We booked a king room along the riverfront. Our room was large and included a kitchenette with wine cooler, PLUS, a private patio with barrel chairs and couch to relax outside. The nightsky is filled with bright stars. HIGHLY...

A very secluded and serene property surrounded by stunning red cliffs! We booked a king room along the riverfront. Our room was large and included a kitchenette with wine cooler, PLUS, a private patio with barrel chairs and couch to relax outside. The nightsky is filled with bright stars. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! *No alcohol available on-site. Bring your own.

The hotel is tucked into a beautiful setting next to the Colorado River and red cliffs. Everyone was welcoming and helpful. The room was pristine and well equipped to create a comfortable and relaxing stay! Thank you!

Hotel is in an incredibly scenic area along the Colorado river with the red cliffs rising all around. Rooms were recently renovated and were very nice. Will be great when the office and restaurant are done with their construction. Did the Bronco Off Roadeo while there.

Red Cliffs Lodge is really a gem. It is located about 25 minutes outside of Moab Center but the scenic road never gets old. It winds around along the Colorado River and is framed by immense red cliffs on either side. We had a King River Suite and this is the view from our porch. It is directly on the river with red cliffs all around. At night time, more stars in the sky than I have ever seen! The room itself was very comfortable with a kitchenette, refridgerator, eating area and microwave. Unfortunately the main building for reception, restaurant etc has been under construction since last November so we had to go to the activities center for food, check in etc. It looks like it will be beautiful when it's finished, directly on the river, but bad timing for us! We did the horseback riding morning trip offered right at Red Cliffs Lodge and it was worth doing. The wranglers are lovely and knowledgeable about the area. Also, about 10 minutes down the road is Castelton Tower (for viewing) and Fisher's Tower (for hiking) if you have any down time after Canyonlands and Arches National Parks. Also, don't miss Dead Horse Point State Park - just down the road from Canyonlands. And I agree with the review that says they should not be charging $20/day for parking! You have a drive up spot right with your room - why would you be charged extra???
