The hotel is located in San Antonio, TX, just 12 miles from the San Antonio International Airport. The JW Marriott Resort is situated in the Texas Hill Country in the Cibolo Canyons, where crystal clear streams and towering oak and cedar trees meet the majesty of the hills. The elements of authentic roots, hacienda style, beautiful views and healing waters serve as the inspiration in bringing this magnificent resort to life.

On six acres of the resort is the Hill Country River Experience. Winding through lush landscaping of native trees and brilliant flowers is an 1100 foot lazy river. The thrilling rapids ride is a fast moving 650 foot river ride that takes you into the lazy river. A 315 foot slide, children’s pools, a serene adult pool, hot and cold plunge pools, whirlpools, and an expansive activity pool just add to the ultimate in outdoor fun and relaxation.

JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort is a proud participant of various Green Initiatives or as we like to call them, Greenitiatives.

In just a short 45 minutes, you can enjoy Prime Outlets – San Marcos, which was voted the “Third Best Place to Shop in the World” by ABC’s The View and is the third largest in the world. This spectacular shopping mecca is one of the top most visited tourist attractions in Texas.
