Five Beautiful Places to Stay in Marfa, Texas

BM9A1667

Back in 2020, I went on a road trip with my family and visited Texas for the first time. Marfa has been on my list for awhile so finally being able to visit was really memorable. It was one of the first places I visited in Texas and I instantly fell in love with it. If you’ve never been, it’s basically in the middle of nowhere and quite the treck to get to. But that’s part of the appeal, it really feels like a serene desert oasis. Since that trip, I moved to Texas and have been to Marfa a handful of times. So I thought it would be helpful to share some of the places I’ve stayed!

So here are five beautiful places to stay in Marfa, Texas!

Highland Abode

This was the first airbnb I stayed at in Marfa (the first time I visited, I stayed at the Thunderbird hotel). I was blown away when I arrived here. It’s so beautifully decorated and felt like I was staying in an art museum. The location is also ideal if you like to walk, it’s close to town which I loved being able to walk to grab coffee in the morning or a cocktail at night. Also, the bathtub was SO nice to unwind in at the end of the day.

Casa 415

I wish I would have had more time of this airbnb. On my recent trip to Marfa, my car broke down unexpectedly and I ended up having to rent a car. It added a lot of time to my trip and so I didn’t get as much time there as anticipated. The photos of this beautiful home don’t do it justice. It’s so airy and light filled. Also, it’s another one that is close to town so another great one if you want to walk into town!

The Light Box

We’ve all seen “tiny homes” that have been converted into airbnb’s. I’m pretty sure this one is made out of two shipping containers but it felt SO cozy and modern. The wood panelling was one of my favorite features of this airbnb as well as the serene field it’s tucked in front of. The light in the morning and at sunset was so serene and peaceful and the sunset I saw the first night I stayed here literally brought me to tears. One thing to note though…it did get a bit too hot in there so something to keep in mind! (I ended up buying a fan to have by my bed)

Artist Loft

This is the place we stayed at when we went to Marfa for our engagement photos in Big Bend National park. This place was super peaceful and I loved the big porch that it had. My husband and I ended up playing cards outside on the porch one of the nights and it was so special. If you’re looking for something more affordable but still serene, I highly recommend this place!

Suite A Studio: The Living Studio

This is a place I have a feeling I will be booking again. I feel like it’s reasonably priced and very well curated. Plus the wifi and AC worked VERY well which were two big necessities for my last trip. It also has a pool! I didn’t end up using it last time but I feel like that’s something to note since it’s the only one of my recommendations on here that does.

Well there you have it! Those are five beautiful places to stay in Marfa, Texas! Which one would you stay at first? You can see a bit more of a few of them in my latest Youtube video as well as some photos over on my Instagram!

I hope this was helpful and I am already planning my next trip back 🙂
