Top Badwater Hotel Reviews

The Ranch at Death Valley – Inside the Park

8/10 Good

"Everything was Credit Card, so be aware of that. and gas was cheaper at Stovepipe Wells than at the Resort, but it's a good drive, so if you're going that way keep that in mind, but don't go out of your way. Everything is an easy walk at the resort; to the shopping, restaurants, pool, and golf course. The most popular destinations in Death Valley are also short drives away; you can catch a few before lunch and another few before dark."

Amargosa Opera House

8/10 Good

"The motel is located very close to Death Valley National Park. However, the mattresses were extremely soft, and some bathroom tiles were coming off. Additionally, the tap water felt like it needed treatment. This property would be a great business opportunity if the owner undertook a major upgrade while preserving its 100-year heritage."
