Spend your summer poolside with cool events at Austin's hippest hotel
What's a Texan to do when our state starts breaking temperature records? Spend the summer at W Austin's WET Deck, of course.
In addition to refreshingly cool water, the hotel's fourth-floor pool deck sports private cabanas, lounge chairs, tanning shelves, a fireplace, and two outdoor showers for rinsing off.
But of course that's not all. Just like W Austin isn't your typical hotel, the WET Deck is anything but a run of the mill pool. It's the place to be this summer, with weekday passes for non-hotel guests starting at just $25 for Sunday through Thursday.
On the weekends, the WET Deck is open to the public with $40 passes on Fridays and Sundays (registered hotel guests are always welcome at no charge).
During Sunset Swim the bar hours are extended to 9 pm, and on Sundays live DJs are spinning during the Sunchaser Social from 2-6 pm.
Mark your calendar each month for Night Swimand the Zodiac Social, when you can play an astrological game with everyone at the WET Deck while DJs curate the vibe. Upcoming events are July 20 and August 17, by the way. Even better: Each attendees gets to enjoy one complimentary frozen drink.
Quench your thirst with this summer's specialty frozen drinks, the Bora Bora and Paloma.
If life is the bubbles for you and your friends, then book a cabana as your homebase and each guest receives a complimentary glass of sparkling wine.
Got a big crew or celebrating something major? Book a partial or full buyout of the WET Deck for parties, happy hours, wedding receptions, and more that are cooler than anybody else's.
