JW Marriott San Antonio is the PERFECT Spring Getaway for Families

My family and I have had the pleasure of taking a little vacation to the JW Marriott San Antonio together, and we had an awesome time.  I was really impressed with how many family-friendly activities were built into the resort.  My children had fun, even though it rained during quite a bit of our stay.

Besides just the kid-friendly activities, the JW Marriott San Antonio is bursting at the seams with relaxing, athletic, and even adventure-filled things for adults to do.  Are you looking for a getaway for just the girls?  What about a couple’s retreat?  This resort is absolutely perfect for any of those things.  Between the golf, the water park, the spa, restaurants, and more, you’ll have tons to do without ever leaving the beautiful property.

JW MARRIOTT SAN ANTONIO BREAKS INTO SPRING WITH EXPERIENCES FOR EVERYONE

Create the perfect getaway with a variety of trips all season long

SAN ANTONIO – February 22, 2018 – Spring into a variety of vacations at the JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort & Spa. Sunny Texas days entice travelers to go outside and enjoy their very own curated experience. Dive into a vacation at the resort’s 9-acre River Bluff Water Experience, marvel at the picturesque native Texas wildflowers growing on the hotel grounds, sneak away for a romantic getaway with incredible Hill Country vistas, fit fitness into an extreme getaway, or celebrate 300 years of San Antonio with a festive visit during the city’s very own Fiesta celebration.

Located just a short drive from San Antonio International Airport, the resort is ideally located with easy access to the heart of downtown San Antonio, features incredible, untouched Hill Country views and an abundance of outdoor activities. Families, couples and friends looking for a break from their routine this spring will all enjoy perfectly suited unique getaways that take advantage of sunny skies, beautiful spring weather and exciting regional events in South Texas.

Enjoy five different getaways this spring at the JW Marriott San Antonio, including:

Splash into Spring

The JW Marriott San Antonio’s 9-acre River Bluff Water Experience is a favorite among guests of all ages. Enjoy seven slides, including two 47-foot tall thrilling body slides, multiple activity pools, an 1,100-foot long lazy river, sandy beach, multiple whirlpools or lounge poolside in one of the private cabanas. The resort’s experience team has carefully created a wide range of activities for the youngest guests including Agility Bootcamp, Virtual Reality, Zoomagination and even dinosaur digs in the sandy beach. Find a full list of spring activities here.

Stop and Smell the Wildflowers

The Texas Hill Country is well known for the beautiful bluebonnets and wildflowers that pop up all over Texas highways, pastures and small roadways during late spring. Lucky for all guests, the JW San Antonio has its very own wildflower hill where blooms come to life every year. After marveling at the beautiful flowers – and making sure you get the quintessential bluebonnet photograph – join the resort’s master gardener, Bethany Wiltse, for a tour of the on-site organic gardens where she grows everything from artichokes to heirloom blackberries. Finish your stay with a lavender treatment at the award winning Lantana Spa using lavender products from a nearby farm.

EXTREME Fun

Not the type that likes to sit back and relax on vacation? Take your chance swimming against the stronger-than-you-think-it-is current of the 1,100-foot long lazy river in the resort’s extreme swim taking place before the pool opens for the day. This workout is not for the faint, providing a challenging and rewarding start to any day. Swimmers have been known to “swim in place” while kicking with all their might. Once recovered, take a plunge down one of the thrilling 47-foot high body slides before recharging with a much more relaxed trip floating around the lazy river with the current. End the evening with a tequila tasting at the resort’s tequila bar in Cibolo Moon, featuring an extreme collection of more than 100 varieties of tequila to serve.

Roses are Red, the Water is Blue

Couples looking for a quiet Hill Country retreat will be delighted with cozy spots throughout the resort to getaway and reconnect. Enjoy a glass of wine next to one of the outdoor fireplaces with views of the rolling hill, big Texas sky and stars. Take advantage of the adults-only infinity pool or find a quiet retreat at the secluded Lantana Spa pool specifically for guests of the spa. While there, couples may enjoy a treatment for two with the Spirit of the Curandero’s Energy Spa Journey for Two.

Celebrate 300 years of San Antonio

Experience the culture of San Antonio while staying in luxury at the JW San Antonio. Vacationers can take a quick drive to the heart of the city to celebrate San Antonio’s 11 day Fiesta celebration or experience the deep culture and history surrounding San Antonio’s Tricentennial celebrations. Enjoy the Missions, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and take a stroll along the banks of downtown’s River Walk. Retreat to the resort for a new kind of San Antonio featuring unobstructed Hill Country vistas, relaxing fireside talks, dining options in several on-site restaurants and luxury around every corner. Complete a San Antonio getaway with a trip to 18 Oaks, the resort’s fine dining steakhouse, featuring tastes from the region with much of the produce and meat coming from local farms and ranches.
