We stayed 4 nights in early October 2025. During 3 nights, there were winds. The rooms, which are large canvas tents supported by timbers, become noisy in any wind, down to 5 mph. This includes the support timbers squeaking (emitting sounds akin to rats squeaking) and top canvas flapping against the inner canvas. In short, sleeping well was a tremendous challenge except on the night when wind was completely stagnant. The front desk confirmed that nothing could be done about the noise and offered earplugs. For heat, the rooms have only wood burning stoves and electric blankets. Linens and blankets are high end. The sink faucet must be held on, so washing your face takes extra effort. Water temperature is adjusted at the hot water heater, not the shower itself (this was easy for us, but we’re industrious). Housekeeping was borderline nonexistent. Our group had 3 tents over the 4 nights, we were gone each day for at least 10 hours, yet for each tent, beds were not made, trash cans were not emptied, fire starters not replaced, etc. The main facility is nice. The hot tubs and cold plunge are great. Breakfast was good and reasonably priced. Dinner was fine (the chicken however is cooked to death and should be avoided). The food servers are pleasant and relatively well trained. Although Ulum emphasizes eating and socializing outdoors (for good reason: the views are exceptional), they do not offer blankets when dining at the outdoor tables/socializing around the fire pits, which is inconsistent with the price point and comparable resorts. Finally, the location is not ideal if you intend to spend your days in Moab (check the map and plan accordingly).
The views are exceptional, and waking early to enjoy the sunrise from the yoga platform is recommended.
