2018 Diamond - Voted #4
Gaylord Texan
Yes, everything is indeed bigger in Texas and that’s true about the Gaylord Texan Resort and Convention Center. First, I’ve never written about a Citywide Spotlight rest destination having a Convention Center in it, but in Texas… it’s the whole show! Travelers can expect about five acres of a stunning indoor garden, a water park worthy of spending time in on a hot Texas day and lots of restaurant and shops. Did I mention the Texas-sized pools? Pick the hotel on Gaylord Trail with modern rooms and patios overlooking all the fun. Gaylord Texas Resort is a MUST for the fun-loving adventurer. - Jordan Dietterich of Surfside, Florida
