  • Located near Lost Pines Golf Club and McKinney Roughs Nature Park
  • A drive from downtown Austin—suitable for a destination stay rather than walkable sightseeing
  • Resort grounds emphasize outdoor activities and nature access

Choose Lost Pines for a stay removed from downtown, focused on on-site recreation and a Hill Country setting.

Hotel Van Zandt – Dining & drinks

  • Geraldine's: Modern Mexican with live local music and a weekend jazz brunch
  • Brass Poppy: lobby cocktail lounge; Café 605 for coffee and grab-and-go items

Pools & signature amenity: Rooftop pool vs multiple pool complexes

Hotel Van Zandt – Pools & signature amenity

Hotel Van Zandt highlights a single heated, all-season rooftop pool with cabanas and a pool bar.

  • Year-round heated fourth-floor pool with shaded cabanas and an underwater sound system
  • Pool access is included with the daily guest amenity fee; cabana reservations available through concierge
  • Pool Deck doubles as an event and social space with skyline and lake views

Hotel Van Zandt – Wellness & nightlife

Hotel Van Zandt does not have an on-site full-service spa but offers in-room treatments through a third-party provider.

  • In-room massages and facials available via Soothe, arranged through concierge
  • 24-hour fitness center with Peloton bikes and strength/cardio equipment (included via amenity fee)
  • Live-music programming at Geraldine's provides on-site evening entertainment

Van Zandt blends fitness access with live-music nightlife rather than a dedicated spa program.

Hyatt Regency Lost Pines Resort and Spa – Wellness & nightlife

Hyatt Regency Lost Pines includes a full-service spa plus on-site fitness and golf instruction.

  • Full-service spa offering massages, body treatments, and facials
  • Fitness facilities open 24 hours and golf lessons/driving range on site
