La Cantera Resort & Spa

We had an amazing stay all around. Check in with Chris-- fantastic, grounds- fantastic, food- fantastic, too much wine- fantastic. The grounds are spectacular, the every single staff member was so warm and welcoming so it is hard to pick a few standouts-- but we can! Chris at the front desk set a beautiful tone to start, the room (updating in progress) had beautiful views from two balconies. One view was of the mountains and golf course, the other of the fountains and pool. The dinner reception at Signature, and lead server Alise, was wonderful. Every bite, every detail, perfect. It is pricey but, unlike many pricey things, this was actually worth it. Taxes were nuts, but that is out of the hotel's control. We will come back.

The accommodations are beautiful, the staff is excellent. There are shuttles constantly to local attractions or beautiful staycation reasons not to leave the resort. Our conference and events were very well managed so they turned out excellent for our attendees.

The property is beautiful and the service unmatched. Food was very good. Recommend staying here if you value top-notch service in a Texas hill country atmosphere but still close to everything San Antonio has to offer. You feel like you are in the hill country even though you are minutes from shopping, Six Flags, movie theater and downtown San Antonio.

I'd pass until they complete their renovation updates and get a good cleaning staff. Unacceptable to find 2 strands of hair and a bobby pin in the bathroom - obviously not cleaned or detailed to the level expected for the image of luxury this resort portrays. In general portions of the resort were not very clean/detailed. A visit to the coffee shop (Henrietta's?) showed that the glass and counter surfaces were not wiped down (doors, pastry bar, ice cream freezer, tables on the patio). I could be somewhat understanding if we had checked in following a storm of patrons after a conference but that was not the case, as we checked in on a Thursday night and the resort was dead. These conditions existed through the weekend. They are doing some much needed renovations as our room was clearly not up to date. Probably early 2010s decor.

I had a wonderful time walking the nature trail, lounging by the pool, and soaking in the hot tub. John, the concierge, made my stay extra enjoyable! All of the staff were friendly and helpful. I stayed in one of the remodeled rooms and it was very nice.
