  Nestled in the Texas Hill County, San Antonio's Westin La Cantera Resort puts parents and kids, lovers on weekend getaways and other leisure travelers close to Six Flags Fiesta Texas and 12-16 miles from museums, historic missions, the Alamo, SeaWorld and River Walk- the stretch of riverfront nightclubs, shops and restaurants that winds through downtown.

The Westin La Cantera definitely projects a resort ambience. Amid oak trees and streams sit two 18-hole golf courses, including one designed by legend Arnold Palmer, and a golf academy, putting greens and apparel shop. The lobby is a feast for the eyes, with massive stone fireplaces, beamed ceiling, majestic wrought-iron chandeliers, slate flooring, and Mexican and Persian rugs. Five pools include one for kids, a waterfall, slide and spa tubs. Guests also can pamper themselves in the hotel's serene retreat reserved for massages and spa services, while children 4-12 can enjoy the Enchanted Rock Club's games, arts and crafts, nature hikes and storytelling.

For the hungry, Brannon's Café at the hotel offers American, Mexican and local dishes and breakfast buffets. Diners at Francesca's at Sunset are served gourmet Southwest cuisine enhanced by panoramic sunset views of the Texas hill country. Patrons also can chose between two bars and two grills for more food and spirits.

The seven-story Westin's 508 guestrooms feature high-speed Internet access and Westin's custom- designed Heavenly Beds of pillow-top mattresses, down blankets, comforters, duvets, and piles of pillows. Heavenly Baths feature dual showerheads, multiple spray options, velour bathrobes, oversized Brazilian combed- cotton bath towels, and citrus-scented English toiletries. The rooms also come with desks, Internet access and chenille reading chairs with ottomans.

Twelve miles from San Antonio International Airport, the Westin La Cantera Resort is insanely popular with golfers, but also a favorite of leisure travelers, especially families, who want resort accommodations and a location close to all the sights.
