Santa’s grabbing his swimsuit this Labor Day weekend as he makes a special summer pit stop at Hilton Anatole’s JadeWaters Resort Pool Complex for the hotel’s annual Santa Cabana Weekend.

In celebration of the season’s end — and as a playful preview of the hotel’s beloved Christmas at the Anatole programming — guests can enjoy four days of festive fun with Santa and Mrs. Claus, holiday-themed treats, and family-friendly activities.
