The water park is only the tip of what’s in store when you bring your family to this Dallas luxury hotel.
Why Families should visit the Hilton Anatole Dallas
JadeWaters Resort Pool
JadeWaters is an intimate one-of-a-kind water park located in the heart of Dallas, TX surrounded by lush landscape. I found myself forgetting it was located near a busy highway.
It’s complete with a lazy river, kids’ pool, water slides, and a separate adult pool with swim up bar. This visit our family stayed on the kid-friendly area, but I also enjoyed the adult pool during our Girls Trip to the Hilton Anatole.
One of my favorite things to do was floating the lazy river with my babies. It was so relaxing!
Dad was on kid watch while I enjoyed one of the best chair massages I’ve ever received. It was glorious and much needed. Thank you V Spa!
When is JadeWaters open?
JadeWaters Resort Pool is open daily from 9 a.m. – 9 p.m. I suggest arriving early to get your seat. (Note: JadeWaters Resort Pool is exclusively for Hilton Anatole guests)
Per reservation, guests receive:
- Up to 2 wristbands per King guest room
- Up to 4 wristbands per Queen double-bed rooms or guest rooms with King and sofa bed
*Up to an additional 2 wristbands per room are available for purchase for $35 each per day
JadeWaters is set to host a firework show on September 2nd before the conclusion of pool season on September 3rd.
Kids Activities
A variety of activities like duck races, movies under the stars, pool parties and more take place on weekends for kids and families!
Guests can purchase a FunPass to use during their stay at AnatoleKids.com to experience activities at a lower cost. (Without the Fun Pass, guests can buy tickets per activity).
The JadeWaters Train was a family favorite as well as Movies Under the Stars. No need to bring chairs as you can sit on the turf like material on a towel to watch the big screen.
The kids attended a Root Beer Garden Party and the chance to cool off inside to visit the Marionette Theater for a Snow White Performance.
After this hotel visit, the kids may think every hotel stay everywhere is this fun. But, believe me it’s not always that way. I love how the Hilton Anatole sees the importance of family and creates entertainment with that in mind.
Dining Options
One of the best things about a staycation at this fabulous resort?
Parents don’t have to cook for anyone while on vacation at this popular Dallas resort! You bet I took advantage of room service. They have some of the best breakfast entrees available.
Poolside, JadeWaters offers an array of menu items for both kids and adults. The kids loved their chicken nuggets while we loved the quesadillas.
I recommend ordering pitchers of drinks or buckets of beer if you decide to partake in adult beverages. They also have an assortment of tasty non-alcoholic refreshments.
For dinner our family visited Media Grill and Bar. With a dinner entree, guests receive a free Kids Buffet entree which my daughter loved.
Lodging that Fits Your Family’s Needs
Hilton Anatole rooms are spacious, comfortable and come in standard guest rooms, suites and more. The beds were comfortable and not hard as a rock.
We brought our pack n play for the baby to sleep in and placed it at the foot of our bed. Bigger rooms that join are available for larger families.
