(PRWEB) January 27 2004--The Radisson Hill Country Resort & Spa in San Antonio, Texas, the official resort of SeaWorld San Antonio, introduces an exclusive marine adventure and vacation package designed specifically for guests of the luxury Radisson resort. The Family Animal Adventure is the only vacation package of its kind in Texas that offers families an opportunity to interact with marine animals.

“It's a great opportunity for guests to experience our fabulous resort, while taking advantage of this exclusive offer to meet whales close-up, feed sharks, play with penguins, or shake hands with a sea lion and experience interactions with these fascinating animals,” says Paulette Good, director of sales and marketing of the Radisson Hill Country Resort & Spa. “SeaWorld is closed to the general public on Family Animal Adventure weekends, so families get undivided attention and an amazing personal encounter with the marine animals.”

The three-day, two-night adventure vacation package from the Radisson resort is available every weekend now through February 22, 2004. Package rate for two is $439 and $599 for parties of four. The Family Animal Adventure includes deluxe accommodations at the Radisson Hill Country Resort & Spa, a souvenir SeaWorld backpack filled with goodies, full complimentary breakfast for up to four people each day, free shuttle service to and from SeaWorld, and one full day surrounded by marine animals. During their day at SeaWorld, participants will enjoy a boxed lunch, compliments of SeaWorld, and will dine either with Shamu and companion killer whales at Shamu Stadium or with mysterious sharks at Sharks/The Coral Reef, a multi-aquarium habitat.

The Family Animal Adventure is recommended for children five years and older. Swimming skills are only necessary for optional programs. The Radisson resort is a full-service hotel and spa located one mile from SeaWorld.

Situated on 27 acres near San Antonio in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, the Radisson resort is part of an exciting new concept combining a luxury resort hotel and an exclusive Carlson Park residential community of townhouses and condominiums. The Radisson Hill Country Resort & Spa, located on the 13th Hole of the Arthur Hills Golf Course, offers 227 first-class guest rooms, deluxe suites and themed suites, and a variety of activities for guests of all ages.

Just 20 minutes from the charm of historic San Antonio, the Radisson Resort offers complimentary transportation to many of the city's treasured attractions. Whether they visit the Alamo, savor the romantic charm of the River Walk via barge, shop the North Star Mall, tour a cowboy museum or discover the Spanish Mission Trails, visitors sense constant reminders of San Antonio's dynamic history and cultures that blend seamlessly. Additionally, Radisson concierge services contact families prior to arrival to coordinate and pre-book other activities during their stay.

The interior South Texas Ranch style d?cor of the resort combines rich hard woods, cool stone floors and warm fall colors that welcomes visitors and offers the feel of living in luxury. Many of the guest rooms provide down bedding, silky linens and walkout balconies that offer stunning views of the Texas landscape. The property showcases its own butterfly and hummingbird gardens.

The resort also features a specially designed area that caters to the needs of our youngest guests. The Rockin' Radisson Room, conveniently located near the lobby area, offers a variety of complimentary activities including fun, interactive games; coloring stations to inspire even the youngest of artists; classic kid-friendly movies from yesterday and today; colorful face painting by the resort's budding Picassos; lively music for dancing and games; as well as bubble blowing and a whole lot more.

The onsite ASIRA Spa features four indoor and two outdoor treatment rooms featuring Vichy showers, boutique private steam rooms, saunas, fitness center with state-of-the-art weight and aerobics equipment, specially designed aerobics room, indoor/outdoor juice bar, and a full-service salon. The courtyard includes three luxurious swimming areas, a lap pool, children's pool, and adult pool that merge cascading water over Texas limestone walls.

The Family Animal Adventure package will introduce participants to dolphins, beluga whales, walruses, otters and penguins. Other programs available for an additional fee offer in-the-water animal encounters with shark, beluga whales and sea lions. For example, the Shark Interaction Program enables animal enthusiasts to put on wetsuits, face masks and snorkels, then enter the sharks' aquatic domain from the safety of a steel protective barrier. Families go underwater for a shark's-eye view of the sleek, silent ocean predators.

As a bonus, the Shark Interaction Program allows participants to snorkel with and feed stingrays, members of the shark family. Other optional programs offering in-the-water animal encounters are the Beluga and Sea Lion Interaction Programs. Photo enthusiasts will have plenty of chances to capture rare moments as family members and animal experts interact with marine mammals and other aquatic species, including birds.
