Reviews for The Lodge at Ventana Canyon

Review 1：Expensive nightly resort fee. Kitchen was not very useful, since no cook or prep ware was provided (there are only plates, glasses, and silverware for 2)

Review 2：Great location - beautiful quiet area. Friendly staff. Spacious room and bath.

Review 3：Great for hiking as a family. Close to great trails. Very friendly staff. Very comfortable rooms, bed, furniture, good to have kitchen facilities for families. Beautiful grounds. Hot tub at the end of the day. Will come back,

Review 4：Noisy guy next door blasting classical music late at night. Really unusual for this kind of hotel. Also odd was the fire dept and arson investigators one morning.

Review 5：Catalina Foothills location is beautiful. Staff is very attentive.

Review 6：Room dark and poorly equipped. Parking difficult at times. check in and check out processes were poor and staff unattentive

Review 7：Reasonable location for accessing area around Tucson - Sinora, Tombstone etc. good facilities - golf, pool, tennis. Room clean and comfortable.

Review 8：The coffee table hadnt been cleaned still had water rings from previous guests ...glasses in bathroom & coffee supplies not replaced. Was supposed to get USA today each morning never happened. And parking was terrible due to parking lot being redone...we mentioned that on check out & was told they have valet parking ...no one offered or told us about it for the 2 days we were there. Also told on reservation this was a special birthday getaway...never felt special...no one mentioned.

Review 9：Beautiful grounds great staff Filet mignon was outstanding

Review 10：Very good food, delicious and good value for money. Very spacious suite with comfortable leather sofa, separate bathtub and kitchen facilities. Nice environment with delicate gardening. Close to canyon and trails.

Review 11：We loved the place, but it could use some attention to the exteriors & walk-out patios.

Review 12：Breakfast was a little disappointing. Turndown service showed up twice after I requested no Turndown service. Second time, she knocked once and just opened the door. This after I told her no thank you the first time.

Review 13：Everything was great.

Review 14：THE POOL WAS NOT FINISHED, SO WE DROVE TO THE MAIN RESORT TO USE THAT POOL, BUT IT WAS NOT A FAULT OF THE LODGE, THERE WERE RENOVATIONS HAPPENING.

Review 15：CLOSE TO MANY VERY GOOD RESTAURANTS. GREAT ACCOMMODATIONS, THE ROOM WAS OLDER, BUT A GREAT SETUP. SEPARATE BEDROOMS, BATHROOMS AND LIVING AREA

Review 16：Found nothing I did not like.

Review 17：Quiet, clean, all amenities as advertised, wonderful spa and exercise equipment, beautiful mountain views and nature trail around the entire facility.

Review 18：The air conditioning unit was really loud! Coming and going was a bit hard because they were repaving the roads. Would have been fun to have a few more things to do around the hotel.

Review 19：The staff were really exceptional. We had John and Raine at meals. Just very personal and Pam at the front desk was great as well as all the boys at the front door.

Review 20：Housekeeping was unable to clean the room and change sheets. The kids pool needs to be re-plastered as it cut the bottoms of our kids feet.

Review 21：Staff was very friendly and attentive. The room accommodations were awesome.

Review 22：The ceiling air handler in the bedroom was kind of annoying, just a bad design, pool is a little walk from the rooms, didn't use pool because of that. If your a family the Lowes is more kid friendly, as we went with people that had kids, they stayed there and we stayed at the lodge , I prefer the lodge for privacy and room size, the suites are great & much larger than the standard rooms at Lowes.

Review 23：The staff was excellent ! Quiet location right on the golf course, not many activities for kids.

Review 24：Older, traditional style lodge in beautiful location. Unfortunately the air conditioning didn't work in our room. Staff brought us a noisy fan but that didn't remedy the uncomfortable room.

Review 25：The staff was very nice and quite helpful.

Review 26：Used room service a lot need to come up with some system to collect dirty dishes I do think a room needs to be checked to see if everything is working before being used ie fan, light bulbs

Review 27：When I asked for something it got done

Review 28：The bad sag in the middle and it wasn't very good.

Review 29：room service was efficient and timely; Parking was very good; The room was very comfortable except for the bed

Review 30：A luxurious resort with surroundings of a golf course. Having a bedroom separate from the living area and a full kitchen. It was close to the attractions we wanted to see but removed from in town hussle and bussle.

Review 31：- No daily breakfast buffet (only on Sundays), this is a bit of a shame compared to breakfast experience at similar hotels, especially with kids. - Hotel must have been amazing 15 years ago, but needs a bit of an update.

Review 32：- Amazing location and surroundings. Must be great for golf addicts - but also good for tennis and swimming pool. - Very nice staff, always helpful. - We had a very large suite with three double beds and a kitchen: perfect with 3 children.

Review 33：The pool was the reason I chose the Lodge and it was not available.

Review 34：Excellent location and staff. Wonderful housekeeping staff - friendly and responsive. Ricardo in the Bar & Grill was wonderful.

Review 35：There was only one thing that I didn't care too much for, and that was the Kuerig coffee maker. That coffee was tasteless and terrible.

Review 36：This was a weekend getaway for my 50th birthday, and it was VERY - enjoyably - peaceful, which is what I was aiming for. The room was huge, our three dogs were welcomed, and the bed was more comfortable than we expected it to be. We'll definitely go back.

Review 37：I was there for a convention, so the distance was a little far. I understand the purpose of the location is primarily for golfing and nature so with that in mind, it's wonderful!

Review 38：Huge suite, comfortable bed.

Review 39：The overall atmosphere was very comfortable. Good golf course and practice facility, tennis looked good and pool was very nice and basically empty. Main restaurant is closed some eves so be aware but grill is open. I would come back.

Review 40：Nothing

Review 41：Found this property on the web, and booked it because it was close to our daughter's apartment. What a find! Lap pool, exercise/weight room, sauna, jacuzzi, steam room all first class. Very comfortable bed and great view from the room. Can't say enough good things, the list is too long.

Review 42：The food situation was awful. The restaurant was closed all three nights I was there. They were using it as a meeting room for functions. This is a country club and members block the bar at dinner time and there is nowhere to eat until they leave. Food in the bar was definitely not fine dining. Only one special and the same special (poorly prepared frozen fish) was offered twice in three nights. This is not a place to go if you want to enjoy your evening dinner.

Review 43：Huge suite. Great pool, staff are friendly, attentive and all around just plain nice people. Tennis and Golf looked good but I was there for hiking which was superb if you can take the heat.

Review 44：The distance to the pool area was inconvenient, but the pool area itself was very nice.

Review 45：We had our three teenage granddaughters with us, and the room was a big hit with them. they really enjoyed the upstairs bedroom layout with their own bathroom and we enjoyed the privacy of the master bedroom. We all enjoyed the restaurant breakfast menu and the service provided.

Review 46：Personally, I would have preferred to be able to go in the sauna or jacuzzi with the male parties in our group. The lodge has private sauna and jacuzzi facilities for it's members and guests, which I imagine pleased some people, but it left me feeling like a teen under supervision.

Review 47：Enjoyed the peace and quiet. They really work to ensure privacy and solitude are provided if desired. Huge room, comfortable bed, friendly staff.

Review 48：The resort fee was unclear because it was presented as covering all gratuitues and wifi. But an automatic 20 percent was also added to our meals, in addition to a 2.00 service charge(?).

Review 49：gated area, check-in at room, great room service with delicious food, very spacious suite with all amenities needed, all non-smoking rooms, no pets allowed!!

Review 50：Staff gave us the worst room and then charged us to switch to an acceptable room. Service at their restaurant was so slow and we were told it was because dining room was busy. Like we were less important since we were in the sports/bar area.

Just horrible TV, Loud noises woke me up at night. No lighting above the stove or coffee maker, dim kitchen lighting.

Review 88：the location. the balcony was great. room was big and comfy. the shower was awesome.

Construction going on in next room very noisy. Will definitely stay there in future tho. Have stayed at lowes in Tucson and the Westin in the same area. Prefer your resort over the other two.

Review 102：Large, clean, comfortable room that was newly remodeled. The bath had a large shower and clawfoot tub. I also enjoyed the workout area and tennis court.
