Omni Barton Creek Resort & Spa

Wonderful anniversary trip

My husband and I spent our anniversary here for a long weekend. Everything we wanted or needed was right on property. The pools were delightful, especially given the extreme Texas heat! The spa was a perfect escape and a nice way to unwind, relax, and shut out the world (and the heat!). The mini golf was also really fun! The views are spectacular and everything we ate and drank was delicious. Being in Texas, the portions were bigger and it was impossible not to overeat! The entire staff throughout the property was kind and helpful, and they greeted us with “happy anniversary” all the time.

Amazing birthday trip with friends

This Omni property was perfection! The service and hospitality was some of the best I have received probably since Pre-Covid. I cannot wait to return and bring my children back with me. I know they will love it!!!

Mediocre resort with inconsistent food and weak service

Overall, this resort did not meet my expectations. Upon arrival around 4:45 pm, I was planning to attend the scheduled 5:30 mat pilates. No one was in the fitness studio at the time of class. Then, I hoped to swim and enjoy the pool bar/restaurant. However, it closed at 6p on Thursday, with no notice from staff or waiters about last call or closing hour. I then was given the option to walk to the lobby bar and order food/drinks to go. The service there was slow and inattentive, and I waited outside on their empty patio in my swim suit for 20 minutes for the food. Dinner at the Blind Salamander was also disappointing, with inconsistent food. The service was much better and the ambiance on the patio at sunset was very nice. The blue crab dip was recommended, but it was very soupy and mediocre in flavor. The oysters were fine, been carpaccio was actually great, and the pineapple upside down cake was inedible. I actually threw it away. The room was clean, spacious, and had a very comfy bed. Water pressure was medium. The breakfast delivery was a bit later than the window I requested, and again the food was disappointing. The bagel was hard, with a tiny serving of cream cheese. The oatmeal was huge but lacked flavor. I would not call this a destination resort. I would visit the spa again because that was a wonderful experience overall, no notes.

We felt like VIP the whole time we were there

The Omni Barton Springs is a beautiful resort - top notch amenities, excellent food and relaxing spa. My husband and I went for our 20th anniversary and felt relaxed and at ease the whole time. What really made the experience amazing was the attention and care from the staff. We were warmly welcomed at every turn and they went above and beyond to celebrate our special milestone. We've never had such a VIP hotel experience before. We'll definitely be back!

Crowded, loud, unconflicting for “luxury” branding.

Not a luxury resort. Thin walls and overcrowded. Service lacks. If you are looking for a spa retreat, quiet atmosphere, or want to get any sleep, then this is not the venue for you. Appears nice on the surface but the operations are not indicative.

Cannot Reccomend

Overall this was a Holiday Inn experience at an Omni price. Staff generally dismissive and unhelpful both at general hotel and restaurants. Poor condition of bathroom, uncomfortable bed, and cannot recommend this resort unless you HAVE to stay for conference or something.
