Hotels in Del Rio

Across the Rio Grande from Mexico, this border town offers unexpected delights beyond its dusty exterior. San Felipe Creek creates a natural oasis where families splash in clear waters beneath shade trees. Val Verde Winery, Texas' oldest continuously operating vineyard, pours samples in a setting seemingly unchanged since 1883. The Whitehead Memorial Museum tells tales of frontier life with surprising humour. Amistad Reservoir beckons with bass fishing and prehistoric rock art. Devils River State Natural Area rewards adventurers with crystalline waters and star-filled skies. After exploring, join locals at family-owned taquerias where homemade salsa and conversation flow freely across languages. Don't miss the view from the international bridge – two nations, one community, divided only by water.
