Known as the “Sunset Capital of Texas”, The Oasis on Lake Travis is a local favourite, just a short drive along the lake from Lakeland Villa. Perched 450 feet above the water, its sprawling multi-level decks offer some of the most spectacular views anywhere in the Hill Country.
The menu is relaxed and crowd-pleasing, with Tex-Mex favourites, fresh seafood, burgers and steaks, plus refreshing margaritas that taste even better with a lake view. There’s plenty of space for larger groups, so it’s a fantastic choice for families or friends celebrating a special occasion together.
The real magic happens at golden hour. Arrive about an hour before sunset to grab a table on the upper decks, order a drink and watch the sky glow pink and orange over the water. It’s a tradition for a reason. Weekends can be lively, so choose a weekday evening if you’d prefer a quieter visit. Afterwards, take a wander around the neighbouring shops and terraces before heading back to the villa for a nightcap under the stars.
