La Cantera Resort & Spa
Hilltop Elegance in San Antonio
For a glimpse into San Antonio’s past look no further than La Cantera Resort & Spa. Inspired by Texas heritage (think King Ranch elegance, not saloon-style décor), this AAA Four Diamond property is a stylish retreat perched atop one of the highest points in San Antonio, offering sweeping views, an award-winning spa, and championship golf.
La Cantera’s lobby sets the tone for what’s to come: rustic refinement, warm tones, and a welcome as big as the state itself. But let’s talk numbers.

The Meeting Experience at La Cantera
When it comes to meeting venues in San Antonio, La Cantera doesn’t hold back. With more than 115,000 SF of flexible indoor and outdoor space that can fit groups from 20 to 1,000. Its showpiece, the 17,000 SF San Antonio Ballroom includes an adjoining, covered terrace with views of the resort’s golf courses. A new 5,500 SF event venue, The Calera, is scheduled to open in fall 2025.
As one of Conde Nast Traveler’s “Top 50 Golf Resorts in the U.S.,” La Cantera’s expert events team love crafting customized group activities and team-building experiences that feature the resort’s course such as mini tournaments or a putting contest and margarita-making experience.
For the non-golfers, there are scavenger hunts and “Brain Breaks,” and — yes — you can even book a real Texas Longhorn (the animal, not the athletes) to cameo at your event. Need help planning your group itinerary? La Cantera’s personal meeting concierge can coordinate everything from activities to transportation, making it one of the most planner-friendly event venues in San Antonio.

What Your Guests Can Expect at La Cantera
Guests at La Cantera can choose from any one of the 496 guest room options, all of which were renovated entirely in early 2025. At The Villas — 34 residential-style accommodations — guests enjoy a private pool, dedicated hospitality team, and personal golf carts. For something even more exclusive, SEVEN is an adults-only floor with 46 guest rooms, private check-in, and a club-like lounge. Both The Villas and SEVEN are available for buyout opportunities for that extra VIP experience.

Come Hungry, Leave Pampered
Hungry? Your attendees won’t be. The resort’s nine dining options ensure every taste is served. Signature, La Cantera’s Michelin-recognized restaurant, features an innovative twist on traditional cuisine — like redfish served with pozole verde. There’s also a charcuterie restaurant, casual Tex-Mex, and the grab-and-go-style Henrietta’s Market where early-morning meeting goers can grab barista-crafted coffee.
Sure, the golf is great, but don’t overlook the Loma de Vida Spa & Wellness for post-meeting decompression. Chicago-based event planner Noelle Mireles helped organize a full spa buyout for 30 women and called it “one of the best events ever — La Cantera’s service levels are amazing!”
