Looking for Bandon Dunes Lodging Reviews! What do you recommend?

I’m planning a golf trip to Bandon Dunes and I want to make the most of my stay. I know there are several lodging options around the resort, but I’m looking for some feedback from the community.

What I’m Looking For:

  • Proximity to the Courses: Are there any places that are especially close to the golf courses?
  • Amenities: What amenities should I look for that cater specifically to golfers? Any suggestions would be great!
  • Overall Experience: If you’ve stayed at any of the lodging options, how was your experience? Was it good for a golf trip?
  • Budget Options: Also, if you have recommendations for budget-friendly options, I would love to hear about those as well!

I’m really excited about this trip and want to ensure I have a comfortable stay. Any advice or reviews would be greatly appreciated!

Bandon Dunes has a variety of lodging options! If you’re looking for comfort and amenities, the Bandon Dunes Resort itself is hard to beat. They have comfortable rooms and easy access to the courses.

That’s true, but I’ve stayed at the nearby Inn at Bandon and loved it! It’s cozy and has a great view, plus it’s budget-friendly for groups.

I highly recommend looking into vacation rentals if you’re coming with a larger group. They often come with full kitchens and more space, which is perfect for post-golf gatherings!

Great point! We stayed in a rental last year and it seriously enhanced our trip. Being able to cook meals together was perfect!

I’ve found that many golfers prefer the Old Bandon Inn. It’s a bit more informal but has a welcoming atmosphere, plus it’s close to several great golf courses.

I’ve heard mixed reviews about The Cliffs at Bandon. Some say it’s lovely, while others mention it being a little out of the way. Anyone have more insights?

I specifically loved it there because of the peace and quiet! Just what I needed after long days on the course.

For the true luxury experience, I suggest checking out the logoed merchandise in the on-site shops at Bandon Dunes Resort! It’s an experience in itself! What’s not to love?

Haha, I agree! But remember to take your wallet! It can get a bit pricey. Worth it for the experience, though!

Are there any pet-friendly options? My dog loves the outdoors, and I’d hate to leave him behind!

Yes, I’ve heard good things about the Bandon Marina. They allow pets and are not too far from the golf courses.

Is anyone else worried about the weather? I heard it can be pretty unpredictable, which could impact our stay. Is there lodging that is close to amenities regardless?

Totally! That’s why we booked a place with an indoor lounge area. It’s a great backup plan for when the weather doesn’t cooperate.

Looking back, I think having a spacious lodge made all the difference in our trip. It’s more than just golf; it’s about the experience together.

Agreed! I still remember our late-night chats on the porch, laughing about the day’s rounds.

I had a great experience at the Inn at Bandon Dunes! They have excellent club storage and offer shuttle services right to the courses. Very convenient for golfers!

That sounds awesome! Do they have any package deals that include golf rounds?

What about dining options? I need something flexible around tee times.
