Elite Overview
From the editors of Elite Meetings
A mere 30 minutes from downtown Houston, tucked away within the Texas Piney Woods on 28,000 acres of natural forest, The Woodlands Resort balances its natural setting with modern luxury.
Guests rest easy in a choice of 402 luxury accommodations with views of the surrounding forest. During downtime, they enjoy two championship golf courses, indoor and outdoor tennis courts, a spa and fitness facility, a five-pool complex that includes a lazy river and plenty of water features, and over 200 miles of nature and bike trails.
For meetings and events, groups convene in more than 60,000 square feet of upgraded indoor and outdoor function space, including a 13,430-square-foot Grand Ballroom and 33 additional meeting rooms — nearly all of which are filled with natural light and feature lake views.
Along with an ideal meeting setting, the resort offers amenities such as state-of-the-art communications and audiovisual equipment, “18-hour” executive conference chairs, complete meeting packages, and dedicated conference managers. The professional meetings, events, and catering staffs combine gracious Texas hospitality with precision planning and are known for attention to detail and innovative ideas — hallmarks that routinely lead to the resounding success of any kind of conference or event.

The customer service that my staff and I received at The Woodlands Resort was immaculate. From the time we stepped out of our vehicles, to the time we departed, I was very impressed. I also work in the customer service business and I can truly say that The Woodlands Resort team is very well prepared. I look forward to working with them on future engagements. We cannot wait to come back to this facility.
Overall Rating: 4.6/5
Ronnie D. Corporate Planner
The food was excellent, our rooms were large and comfortable, and our meeting rooms were set up just as we asked. The staff was so friendly--they were always smiling and accessible no matter what the job.
Overall Rating: 4.7/5
Ann C. Corporate Planner
Performed very thorough site at Woodslands Resort in October 2006. Some distance from the airport and rooms are arranged in a campus setting -- scattered and depending on what building you are in it could be a few minutes to walk to the building where the meeting space is located. Good meeting space, although it is on a couple of floors and somewhat spread out.
Glenna F. AO North America Corporate Planner
Everyone concluded that our Annual Sales Meeting at The Woodlands Resort & Conference Center was one of the best we have ever planned. The key ingredient to its success was the efforts of the resort staff—from the front desk to the shipping department.
