Nestled in the Texas Hill County, San
Antonio's Westin La Cantera Resort puts parents and kids,
lovers on weekend getaways and other leisure travelers 12-16
miles from museums, historic missions, the Alamo and SeaWorld.
The River Walk is also nearby for visitors wanting to enjoy
the stretch of riverfront nightclubs, shops and restaurants.
The Westin La Cantera definitely projects a resort ambience.
Amid oak trees and streams sit two 18-hole golf courses,
including one designed by legend Arnold Palmer, and a golf
academy, putting greens and apparel shop. The lobby is a
feast for the eyes, with massive stone fireplaces, beamed
ceiling, majestic wrought-iron chandeliers, slate flooring,
and Mexican and Persian rugs. Five pools include one for
kids, a waterfall, slide and spa tubs. Guests also can pamper
themselves in the hotel's serene retreat reserved for massages
and spa services, while children 4-12 can enjoy the Enchanted
Rock Club's games, arts and crafts, nature hikes and storytelling.
For the hungry, Brannon's Café at the hotel offers
American, Mexican and local dishes and breakfast buffets.
Diners at Franesca's at Sunset are served gourmet Southwest
cuisine enhanced by panoramic sunset views of the Texas hill
country. Patrons also can choose between two bars and two
grills for more food and spirits. |
