Enjoy a day on the lake at Lakeway Resort & Spa. Situated on picturesque Lake Travis, you'll feel a world away, just 25 minutes from downtown Austin. The little ones will love the dedicated kids’ pool with a waterslide and splash pad while the kids-at-heart can enjoy the adults pool and swim-up bar, with sweeping views over Lake Travis. With poolside food and beverage service and the TR Restaurant & Bar, no one leaves hungry. For the ultimate experience, make it a day to remember with a private cabana rental where you can relax in your home-base while the whole family enjoys the resort.

Lakeway Resort and Spa 

The pool views just can't be comprehended without visiting this spot. The service was great (those pina coladas make it hard to think you aren't on a beach somewhere)! It wasn't too crowded and the adults only option was ideal! 

Absolutely Perfect

Pool are was a tidy bit smaller than anticipated but overall great day with our kids. But a big no no was the pool bar staff and restaurant staff. Very bad service and everyone was confused and inexperienced to serve customer. Our toddler got an alcholic beverage (mango smoothie) because they messed up one order. It could have gone way worse than it did. 

Great location

Variety of pools for adults and kids was great. Loved the lake background and the deep pool that you can swim laps or your kids can jump in. Not overly crowded either! Cocktail prices reasonable. Only complaint was the food quality for the price and only one person making the food made it very slooow. Just eat before you go! 

Beautiful place, nice deep pool

Views are so beautiful and the adults only pool is awesome. Drinks aren’t crazy expensive either. Staff is super nice and check in was a breeze. 

Great place and location 

The overall experience at this resort was very poor. Instructions were not clear on how to get to the pool from the main lobby of the resort. When we finally figured out how to obtain our key card to the pool, we found out that the swim up bar was closed for the day. The swim up bar was advertised as open and was the only reason we booked this resort. There were waiters around the pool that provided us with food and drink menus. It took about 20 minutes for a waiter to approach us, then it took ONE FULL HOUR to receive a drink from the menu. It was advertised that no outside food or drink was permitted, and I had to ask for a cup of water 3 times (which took about 1.5 hours to receive). Gratuity was automatically included and they charged me $26 for one Moscow mule. They also would not let us open a tab, so we had to carry our credit cards in the pool and make multiple transactions. It was over 90°, so waiting over an hour for a cup of water is unacceptable. I would never come back. 

Terrible service 

Had an excellent time visiting on Mother's Day. We arrived late in the afternoon so chairs weren't an issue. The multi-level pool area shown in the photos is adult only, so we spent all of our time in the kid's pool with our little guy. The slide has a 42" height requirement which is something to be aware of. We were given everything needed to make s'mores by the fire which was a nice bonus (even though it was nearly 100 degrees, but hey -- s'mores!)

Overall I'd recommend this property for a relaxing pool day especially with kids. The only reason for the 4/5 rating is because the pools themselves show a noticeable amount of wear-and-tear. Not a big deal, but it's noticeable enough that a 5/5 rating feels unjustified given some of the nicer high-end alternatives available.

Perfect for kids. Very good for adults.

Check-in was a breeze.  Not sure why we had to have a wristband because literally no one was working / servicing the pool area except for those behind the bar and grille.  The pools were AMAZING.  Luckily we arrived 30 minutes after the pool opened and were able to snag the last 3 lounge chairs, otherwise we'd have been out of luck.  Recommend going early to get a chair unless you want to stay in the pool the whole time (which we practically did!!). Again, no service around the pools so you will have to get your drinks at the bar and the grille which was not a problem for us.  It was a perfect Mother's Day, the views were spectacular, the food was great, and did I mention the pools???  Will most definitely go again, WAY better than celebrating by just going out to brunch :). 

Amazing Day!!!

Overall we had a great Mother's Day here. They have nice amenities but some have limitations. We are a family of 4 with a 3-year-old and an 8-month-old on the day of our trip. Our toddler couldn't ride the water slide because of the 42" height requirement for it and no tandem rides with an adult. Also, the hot tub, the swim-up bar, and all the lake views are on the adults-only side of the pool complex so we could not really take advantage of those. If no kids in tow or bringing a better ratio of adults per child then you wouldn't have all these same issues. The kids side was still a lot of fun with waterfalls, splash pad features, the waterslide area if over 42" tall, the shallow beach-style entry, & the deeper pool combined with a shallower water volleyball area. The alcohol drinks range from $7 -$12 at the pool bar area and there are a lot of food options at the pool grill window by the deeper pool from around $8 for a fruit bowl up to $20 for a 12" pizza. Snacks too from $4 - $9.

Nice Amenities. Busy on Mothers Day.

Made for a very relaxing day of lounging with a great view. Would definitely repeat. 

Great day

Spectacular view. Staff nice. The Pool that teens allowed in was freezing and unswimmable. The lower Adult pool dirty and hot tub had filthy foam floating around. 

Pool review 

Enjoy lake life resort-style at the Lakeway, featuring a kids' pool with a waterslide and splash pad, an adults pool with a swim-up bar, poolside dining, and private cabanas.
