Great family resort - nice spa - bring your wallet!
My husband and I enjoyed a couple days at the Hill Country resort while in San Antonio for business. The service we received was top notch with all the employees very helpful and friendly. Our room was nice, although pretty thin walls. The lazy river was like floating through a slow moving river in Texas with plenty of shade, natural Texas landscape and "bug" noises - relaxing. There were alot of families with all ages of children all having a great time. I went to the spa, which was very nice and relaxing. There is also an adult "lap" pool and spa that adults can go when paying for a spa service. This was nice because I never did find an "adult" pool area near the lazy river so always lots of kids and noise. There were plenty of tubes, towels and chairs, but never could get a drink so when I went up to the bar, I was still charged a "service" fee for the drink? Drinks were pretty small and pricy. We enjoyed the buffet dinner, which was nice, but with all the kids/families it felt like we were staying at a Disney resort. I guess if you want a more intimate dinner for couples, you should go to the upscale on-site restaurant for much more $$$. It is a nice family resort, although I've also been to the Marriot resort in SA and think it offers more entertainment for kids and a much bigger lazy river - didn't feel as much like a "kid" resort either. I would prefer it, but then, I didn't go with kids. I like that the Marriot resort also has water slides so think kids would also like it better, but it is also much more expensive. All over a good family resort catered to kids.
