Texas finally has its first aloft hotel. The Starwood lifestyle brand has opened in Las Colinas – the first of three aloft hotels planned for the state. If you take advantage of their ‘Better Tomorrows’ rate (available until the end of March 2009), you can enjoy a second night at 50% off.
You can learn more about the brand from this video:
Check out the Peninsula Island Resort. I discovered this place when looking for a place to stay during the South Padre International Music Festival. The rooms are very luxurious and have a great view.

I just read the last two posts and it looks like things are happening all over Texas. Exciting news.
Most recently, the J.W. Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort & Spa opens in March of 2010 and will feature 1,002 rooms, fine dining, a great spa and fitness center, two PGA TOUR TPC golf courses designed by legendary Pete Dye and Greg Norman, a multi-million dollar water park designed by the Sea World team – this will be the largest JW Marriott Resort and a one of a kind vacation destination.
It’s located north of San Antonio (20 min. from the airport) and provides easy access to all the attractions in the Hill Country region – historic towns, musical legends, award-winning vineyards and culture from the Spanish tradition to the deep German heritage of the settlers.
