Ravishing Resorts in the San Antonio Area

When it comes to vacationing in San Antonio, many families choose to stay in resorts, simply because they have so much to offer when it comes to amenities and activities. While the following resorts may not be extremely near the Alamo, they are only a short drive away. And, as an additional bonus, many resorts in the area offer free shuttles to popular attractions like the Alamo.

First on our list is the Hyatt Regency Hill Country, which is a breathtakingly beautiful place to stay. Spend time relaxing in your room or take advantage of the treatments available at the Wildflower Spa, which is located inside the resort. All rooms have top of the line bedding and are designed in a contemporary San Antonio style that is at once both chic and country inspired. If you’re up to outdoor activities, try a game at the resort’s 27 hole championship golf course. Take the kids to Rowdy’s Camp Hyatt where they can play and make friends in a summer camp-like atmosphere, while teenagers can hang out at UNDERGROUND, a place that’s exclusively for teens to hang out and meet new people. There are more than seven different places to eat and drink located on the resort, a great advantage for those who don’t feel up to renting a car and driving to find a place to enjoy an elegant dinner.

The above resort isn’t the only Hyatt to make our list of top San Antonio resorts. The Hyatt Wild Oak Ranch has also earned a spot on this distinguished list. While this resort is about 20 miles outside of San Antonio, a short drive will give you access to all of the great attractions that the city has to offer. If you are looking to take a vacation and try all of the outdoor activities that the San Antonio area has to offer, then staying at the Wild Oak Ranch should definitely become a priority. With an 800 foot river pool, both indoor and outdoor swimming pools featuring water slides, and two spas, both children and adults will be able to enjoy all that the water at the resort has to offer. Other great activities include a golf course and a fully appointed health club. After a long day of exercise and activities, most families want to simply lie down and go to sleep. With the rustic design of the rooms and the extremely comfortable bedding, drifting off to sleep should be no difficult task at this Hyatt resort. Things like plasma screen TVs and DVD players in the guest rooms give an added touch of family friendly planning. Studios, one bedroom, two bedroom, and three bedroom suites are all available at this extremely family friendly resort.

The Radisson Hill Country Resort is another fabulous resort located just outside of San Antonio. From the outdoor heated pool to the ASiRA spa and health club, nothing about this resort is ordinary. After a day of pampering or exercise, going back to your room is a delightful experience. The Texas ranch style décor gives each of the 277 rooms a comfortable, homey feeling, while the high class bedding provides the perfect foil for a night of blissful sleep. Take a shower in one of the Rain Forest showers or luxuriate in a bath in one of the garden tubs. Whether you are traveling to San Antonio to see the sites or to relax in a world class resort, both can be accomplished at this Radisson property.

The Westin La Cantera Resort is only minutes from downtown San Antonio and is the perfect place to relax after a great day of sightseeing. With six swimming pools and a world class fitness center, you may find it hard to leave all of the great things to do in the resort to see the sites of San Antonio. There are also two spectacular golf courses on resort land, as well as an Academy to help you improve your game. Whether you are booking a standard room, a suite, or a villa, it can be safely assumed that each room is appointed with the most luxurious of accommodations. While in your room brew a cup of complimentary Starbucks coffee, enjoy a soak in the Heavenly Bath, then enjoy the amazing view that many rooms feature. When you are done pampering yourself, settle into the ultimate in luxury and sleep a few more winks than usual in the Heavenly Bed.

These are just a few of the great resorts in the San Antonio area that would be glad to cater to you and your family. While they may be a bit far away from top attractions like the Alamo, most feel that the short drive is worth the incredible luxury that they will enjoy in any one of these stellar resorts.
