Miraval Austin

Following the success of its flagship Tucson resort, the Miraval brand has emerged as one of the world’s premier spa and wellness destinations, funneling everything “wellness” - incredible food, endless spa treatments, thought-provoking workshops, healthy cooking workshops, and fitness classes galore - on 220 gorgeous acres of Texan Hill Country. Its 117 rooms and seven suites are elegantly modern and airy homes away from home. Guests can truly customize their experience with everything from mindful horseback riding, to cardio drumming, to mind-quietening meditation on gorgeous rural grounds overlooking Lake Travis.

Miraval gives health and nourishment lip smacking gourmet appeal. While healthy living is encouraged at Miraval, deprivation is not on the menu. Portions are small, but guests may eat as much (or as little) as they like. Fresh juice and smoothie concoctions, and delicious healthy snacks are available all day, and a glass of wine with dinner is by no means frowned upon. Miraval might not come cheap, but a week here is a complete mind, body, spirit revamp where benefits last beyond checkout…  well into the future. Checkout typically comes with the joy of feeling fitter, healthier, and probably a few pounds lighter. Rates include all meals, snacks, non-alcoholic beverages, round-trip airport transfers, certain fitness and yoga classes, and a spa credit. Athleisure wear is the standard attire at Miraval.
