I’d like to thank Ryan from Corporate Guest Relations for his excellent assistance. He was very knowledgeable and efficient. I had previously contacted several people who were unable to guide me on how to pay off my season pass in full, but Ryan resolved everything within a minute. I truly appreciate his help!

🏆 Family Action Verdict

A destination-scale waterpark stay best suited for families planning a multi-day Texas Hill Country trip. Young children have dedicated kids' areas in each park section. Thrill-seekers of all ages find challenge across the 45 rides. Confirm waterpark open dates before booking off-season lodging.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

💡Book lodging well in advance for summer weekends — the resort fills quickly and rates increase closer to date
Season passes unlock repeat visits throughout the season and include access to all four park sections
🎟️Train tracks run near the property — request a room on the far side from the tracks if noise is a concern
🚗Each of the four park sections can occupy a half-day independently — plan which sections to prioritize on multi-day stays

Room was super clean and fully equipped. Beds are okay, just not the newest anymore. Front desk staff very friendly and helpful. Be aware of the nearby train tracks that are also busy at night

Overview

Schlitterbahn New Braunfels is one of the most expansive waterpark destinations in the US, with 45 rivers, slides, chutes, and rides spread across four distinct sections. Each section runs its own children's area, a not-so-lazy river, and a swim-up bar. Staying at the resort includes waterpark access, and six accommodation types — from basic hotel rooms to full vacation homes — serve different family sizes. The resort operates year-round for lodging, with the waterpark running seasonally.
