What the rate includes — and what costs extra
The published room rate at Lakeway Resort & Spa does not include meals or most services; a mandatory daily resort fee ($50 plus tax) covers specific on-site benefits such as pool access, Wi‑Fi and fitness. Extra charges you should expect: food and drinks (including breakfast if you don’t buy a package), spa treatments, parking or valet, pet fee, and certain activity or event charges.
