5 reasons why Hilton Anatole is the best place for families to beat the heat

Although there’s plenty to explore at Hilton Anatole, guests will want to make time on their itinerary for a day (or more) at the JadeWaters resort pool complex. The pools are now open on weekends through Memorial Day and then daily all summer long. Spanning three acres, JadeWaters features all the trappings for either an afternoon adventure or a relaxing dip. There’s a children’s area with a 7,000-square-foot beach entry pool, two 280-foot winding water slides, a splash zone perfect for the youngest visitors and a soothing 630-foot-long lazy river that twists and turns past waterfalls and luscious landscaping. Perhaps paramount to parents is JadeWaters’s Leisure Cove—a separate 4,000-square-foot pool, complete with a hot tub and swim-up bar with in-pool seating! Need to fully relax? There’s no place better than in one of the resort’s cozy daybeds or deluxe cabanas.

Often at destination resorts, the amenities take precedence and the actual rooms feel like cramped after-thoughts. That’s most definitely not the case at Hilton Anatole. The spacious tower guest rooms have been newly renovated to feature a modern look that’s true to the resorts passion for art. Plus, families of all sizes can find a space that’s right for them, including brand-new full suites with bunk beds!

From gourmet grab-and-go to elegant meals, there’s a spot for every craving at one of Hilton Anatole’s five on-site restaurants. Start your day with coffee from Counter Offer and enjoy lunch or happy-hour drinks at Media Grill + Bar. Enjoy your meal with a side of breathtaking views at SER Steak & Spirits, which overlooks the Dallas skyline from the hotel’s top floor. The food, led by classically trained Parisian chef Arnaud Masset, doesn’t disappoint! Take your choice of exclusive cuts of prime beef, locally sourced ingredients and an extensive wine cellar. In fact, the sommelier can help you hand-pick a bottle from more than 350 offerings.

Sure, Hilton Anatole prides itself on its museum-grade art collection and private, seven-acre sculpture park, but if you ask any family that repeatedly returns to the resort, it’s all about the Topgolf Swing Suite in the Grand Atrium. Come for the art and stay for the games! Open from 4–11 pm daily, this entertainment space includes three private bays that can be reserved for groups of up to eight people. With TVs, comfortable lounge seating and a complete menu of food and drinks, the fun is nonstop. Topgolf offers 40 iconic golf courses to help you perfect your swing. If golf isn’t your thing, choose from a variety of virtual games including zombie dodgeball, baseball, football and hockey.

If you can believe it, Hilton Anatole even manages to make its fitness center fun. The 80,000-square-foot facility has courts for basketball games as well as racquetball and squash. There’s a boxing gym, cycling studio and seven-lane indoor lap pool. Whether you prefer one-on-one training or group classes, they’ve got you covered with extensive cardio machines and a strength-training room. After a full day of play, the hotel’s athletic club also offers the perfect antidote in the Verandah Spa. Guests can choose from a curated menu of treatments, from a soothing massage to a rejuvenating facial. For even more relaxation, every spa treatment comes with full-day access to the eucalyptus steam room and Finnish sauna.
