At Horseshoe Bay Resort, we don’t just serve guests; we curate moments. We believe that the best guest experiences start with the best associate experiences. We are deeply committed to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging, ensuring every intern has a seat at the table (and a view of the lake) while training at a premier AAA Four Diamond destination. Choose Your Path: Focused Internship Tracks Don’t just shadow—lead. Our program is designed for deep immersion, allowing you to master the operational heartbeat of a luxury resort. You’ll be placed in one of three core areas: • Rooms Division: Master the “Signature Arrival.” Own the front office operations and become the face of first impressions. • Food & Beverage Management: Learn the high-stakes world of high-volume dining, from elegant banquet execution to the laid-back energy of our lakeside lounges. • Spa, Wellness & Retail: Curate the guest journey at our Bayside Spa & Fitness center or manage luxury styles at our Retail Tennis Boutique. Pay & Professional Growth• Competitive Pay: Earn while you learn with scheduled performance reviews and merit-based raises. • The Fast-Track: High-performers aren’t just interns; they’re future execs. Standout interns may be fast-tracked into our Manager in Training (MIT) Program to prepare for post-grad leadership. The “Associate Life” Perks We work hard, but the perks play harder: • Resort Access: Hit the greens with Golf and Amenity access and enjoy deep discounts on dining and retail. • Jet-Set Benefits: Access exclusive rates at over 100 Crescent Hotels & Resorts and the Preferred Hotels network worldwide. • Total Support: We’ve got you covered with Subsidized Associate Housing, a dedicated shuttle service, and weekly meal subsidies. • The Fun Stuff: Summer is better at the lake! Enjoy exclusive associate outings and team-building events all season long. Full-Time Future Thinking long-term? Interns who transition into full-time careers with us unlock a robust benefits suite: • Wellness: Comprehensive Medical, Dental, and Vision, plus specialized health plans. • Wealth: 401(k) retirement plan with an employer match. • Balance: Paid vacation and holidays to help you recharge. Are You the One? We’re looking for candidates who check these boxes: • Student Status: Currently enrolled in a college or university. • Hospitality Heart: Energetic, professional, and obsessed with anticipating guest needs. • Availability: Ready to dive in for the full summer season (May – August 2026)
