Nestled in the picturesque Texas Hill Country lies Miraval Austin Resort & Spa: a refreshing getaway for the body as well as the mind. Miraval strives to promote balance and inner healing, encouraging guests to “unplug” from life’s distractions and take time to enjoy the day moment by moment. This is done in part through a campaign known as “Miraval Mode”–designating the resort as a digital device-free environment. Guests are encouraged to use electronic devices only in designated areas, allowing visitors to experience a serene atmosphere free from the stressors of modern life. 

Miraval was established in 2003, originally known as The Crossings. Today, the resort is partnered with Hyatt, bringing guests modern and luxurious amenities such as clean and healthy meals, freshly-prepared snacks, and complimentary access to daily wellness activities such as yoga, meditation sessions, fitness classes and more. 

Accommodations include a selection of 13 three-level lodges, each housing between eight to ten guest rooms. Rooms are inspired by the aesthetic of the modern spa experience, with many offering relaxing views of Lake Travis. All accommodations include amenities such as Miraval’s Signature bedding, toiletries courtesy of the Zents Bath Collection, complimentary hi-speed Wi-Fi, Tibetan singing bowls and meditation cushions, and in-room meditation channels.

The Life in Balance Spa is the crown jewel of the Miraval Resort, offering a wide menu of relaxing treatments such as massages, hair and nail service, and specialized pampering routines for mothers-to-be. It is recommended that guests arrange Spa appointments 4-6 weeks in advance, as demand is high and spots fill up quickly.
