Where to Stay in Wimberley, Texas: A Guide to the Best Boutique Hill Country Stays

If you are looking for where to stay in Wimberley, the best boutique stays sit just minutes from the square and Blue Hole, tucked into the Texas Hill Country trees. The Lazy Lavender is a small, family owned collection of five distinct homes near Wimberley, each one designed around its own feel, whether you want a quiet couples escape or a place that sleeps the whole group.

Now here is everything you need to choose the right one.

Why Wimberley is worth the trip

Wimberley sits right in th

e heart of the Texas Hill Country, between Austin and San Antonio, and it has held onto the slow, easygoing charm a lot of small Texas towns have lost. You get cypress lined creeks, a walkable square full of local shops and galleries, and some of the prettiest back roads in the state.

A few of the local highlights:

• Blue Hole Regional Park, the spring fed swimming spot Wimberley is known for

• Cypress Falls Swimming Hole, another favorite spot to cool off in the Hill Country heat

• Old Baldy, a short, steep hike with one of the best views in Wimberley once you reach the top

• Wimberley Square and the downtown boutique shops, full of local makers, galleries, coffee, and good food

• Wimberley Market Days, one of the largest outdoor markets in Texas, held the first Saturday of every month

• Wimberley Glassworks, where you can watch live glassblowing demonstrations

• Nearby Hill Country wineries, an easy drive in any direction

• Live music around town on the weekends

It is close enough to reach for a weekend and far enough to actually feel away from everything.

How far is Wimberley from the major Texas cities?

• About 45 minutes from Austin

• About 1 hour from San Antonio

• About 3 hours from Houston

• About 3.5 hours from Dallas

That central location is a big part of why Wimberley makes such an easy getaway no matter where in Texas you are starting from.

The best places to stay in Wimberley

The Lazy Lavender is a family owned property just 4 minutes from the square and 5 minutes from Blue Hole, with five homes to choose from. Here is a quick guide to each:

• A charcuterie spread waiting on arrival

• An in-home massage

• Custom decorating for a special occasion
