I've always been a fan of Hockley Valley Resort, with its spacious guestrooms - all under one roof - self-contatined conference centre, its own 18-hole links-style golf course, and 8,000 sq. ft. "to-die-for" spa...
But it had been awhile since I had seen the resort - and their renovated product.
They've been busy.
The hotel's lobby is totally unrecognizable from previously - in a good way. Gone, as well, is the the country-style dining room; in its place is a hip restaurant and bar - perfect for convivial post-meeting networking . And the guestrooms? Let's just say that those floral bedspreads won't be missed.
The resort has also used a portion of their vast 300 acres to create their own garden - growing produce for their kitchen. Talk about locavore! Amongst their bountiful harvest: four varieties of beets, five kinds of carrots, three types of cucumbers, six lettuces, tomatoes (five standard varieties and five Heirloom)...the list goes on, and I'm getting hungry!
