I read all of the trip advisor reviews before our visit to Mayan Ranch and was curious to see how a place can get an almost perfect score with over 100 reviews. Now, I understand. In the day where "no my job" is often the prevalent attitude, the Hicks family and there employees take the "what can we do for... More

I just happened on this site to look up the address to send a gift to one of the Mayan "Family." While the "real" Hicks family is a huge, multi-generational clan, everyone who passes through the Mayan becomes a part of this group. For almost 30 years, my husband and I have been bringing our children, and now our grandchildren,... More

Hospitality was out of this world. Rode the horses twice a day. Enjoyed the plan activities. Cowboy breakfast was great. I can't wait return. Love the wild life (deer, peacock, geese)

They say you shouldn't go back to places because they're never as good as you remembered.....but this is not the case with the mayan ranch ! Have a look around the cute town of Bandera the day you arrive & then head on to the ranch ( only about a 3min drive from town) - park your car and then... More

We have our state conference here and they are fantastic with our large group! Where else can you go where they wake you up with coffee and... More

Stayed at the Mayan ranch for a family reunion, and it was just great. Helps that we were there at a good weather time of year - it was gorgeous and comfortable. Staff (who are mostly family) go out of their way to ensure you're having a great time. Cabins are rustic, but clean & very comfortable. The cowboy breakfast... More

I went on holiday here with my mum and dad and didn't know what to expect. I could not have been made more welcome from the moment I arrived, the Hicks really are a great family, they ran out of a certain drink I really liked and purposely got someone to drive into town to get more just so I...

My girlfriend and I just returned from a weekend at Mayan Ranch. We wanted to get out of Philly ad do something fun and different. We are so glad we choose Mayan. The family that runs it and all the employees are awesome. Everyone makes you feel so comfortable – very laid back – like being home. We went in... More
