JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort & Spa

Family fun packed resort The hotel experience was phenomenal. This resort will be our go to for family fun. The activities the hotel had made it even more remarkable as our kids enjoyed all the activities they attended. The restaurant selection was also extraordinary and made the stay eveb better because we didn't have to leave. They also have a store and a Starbucks on site.

Great resort in the heart of the hill country Amazing resort with a wonderful water park, great food options, great amenities and natural beauty, highly recommended!

Family girl’s trip!! Everything was amazing! The food was great and the people were amazing. Kudos to the4 Pizza guys making pizza. They were slammed Saturday. They were so calm and polite to each other getting all the orders out! They were really fast! All the waiters out by the pools were so friendly and the food came out quick.

The idea of the place is wonderful. I took my 3 granddaughters, 5, 3, and 1 here on a mini vacation. The good: the children’s pool and slides were wonderful for all 3. We spent a whole day there. There was plenty of seating around all the pools. There were several options for food including 3 eateries, and room service - all priced as expected. The room was comfortable and accessible. Room service and housekeeping staff were pleasant and kind. The staff on checkout were great! The not so good - the two different women I dealt with at check in were flat out rude and have no business being in customer facing jobs. The self parking just sucks. Parking in sections 2 and 3 force you to walk up and down hill - with a family with wagons and strollers this not NOT convenient, not to mention that getting on the sidewalk while crossing the street was a challenge as there was no ramp access - meaning I had to literally lift the wagon with kids in it up onto the sidewalk while headed uphill - fun times. The family pool was constantly dirty. While I understand trees and such, have someone skim the pool. While we had a pleasant time, there is definitely room for improvement especially given the cost.

We enjoyed delicious breakfast, lunch, and dinner options, from the brick oven pizza to the incredible omelet station at Cibolo Moon. No matter the time or how busy the hotel was, we never waited longer than 15 minutes for a table and every single staff member we interacted with was personable, professional, and seemed genuinely happy we were there. Our room was comfortable and incredibly clean. Whether we spent time relaxing in the room or out on the beautiful grounds, we were never disappointed. In fact, what luck - we visited during their Backyard BBQ, when several inflatable toys spread out on the lawn for the kids, great live music artists played toe-tappers that got everyone singing along, and served delicious BBQ as yet another dining option at a hotel swimming in them. Speaking of swimming, those cabanas are worth the price and emotional spiraling. We took our time getting out to the pool on Saturday and learned our lesson, miraculously finding a single pool chair for our family of 4’s things. Not that we spent any real time at the chair… the lazy river held our attention for several hours, with a little help from the delicious Pina coladas served river-side. Funnily enough, we live 15 minutes away from the hotel and came for a little family staycation, but this was the best experience we’ve had in a plethora of travels. We’ll keep an eye out for the calendar and be back for some incredible lemon scones & fun! Thank you, JW Marriot Hill Country and staff!!

For the price, we expected a luxurious experience and our stay really missed the mark. It was so terribly loud everywhere in the hotel. Kids running up and down halls constantly. We couldn’t find a vending machine that worked. There was only one sit down breakfast restaurant so the wait in the morning wasn’t worth it. I think this hotel is a good option for families but wouldn’t recommend if you don’t have kids or want a restful weekend.
