About the hotel:   The hilltop site of a former limestone quarry in the scenic Texas countryside is the unique locale for The Westin La Cantera Resort, San Antonio — the ambience of a remote country inn, plus resort luxuries and a dash of Lone Star character. The peaceful rural backdrop is ideal for a round of golf, poolside lounging, some tennis, or a spa visit. For a change of pace, explore San Antonio and the surrounding Hill Country for historic sights, exciting theme parks, great shopping, and more. Rooms and suites in warm, earthy colors with rustic details in wood and classic wrought iron recall the great ranches of historic Texas.
