"This is one of the newest hotels to be built on the river, and its location makes you wonder why someone waited so long to build here."

"Across from Six Flags and 15 miles north of downtown, this place, previously a Westin, rests atop the area's highest hilltop on the site of what was once a limestone quarry (cantera in Spanish)."

The whole family can have fun at the waterslide's ice-cream-sundae classes, basketball and sidewalk chalk sessions while others may choose to stroll the 1-mile nature trail filled with quarry rock, native plants and other Texas wildlife.

"Rolling hills set the scene for this destination resort. The setting is a favorite with golfers for its scenic, Arnold Palmer-designed course, the first in South Texas."
