Comfortable bed and nice view.

Broken door, worn out furniture, no light bulbs, and very old TV.

When I asked if they have room with HD TV because I needed it, they said there was no available. Then after I booked another hotel, which have flat screen TV in their rooms, for the same night and told them I needed to leave, they told me then can give me a room with HD TV. It's too late. I left. ...read more

Beautiful casita and grounds.

The Boulders is a beautiful resort. The casita was very large with a nice feel to it. The bathrooms are showing their age - tile, etc. The spa looks beautiful, however the prices were very steep. The Boulders is a uniquely beautiful place. ...read more

Beautiful resort. First class all the way.

$30
resort fee per night. Too expensive.

Incredible. Had a wonderful, relaxing three night stay. Our room had a fireplace with sitting area in front of it and a wonderful bathroom. The beds were very comfortable. The resort fee of $30 was pricey, but did cover use of the basic spa facilities (steam room, fitness center, locker rooms) and classes such as yogo, pilates, etc. ...read more
