I rarely leave reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience after my husband and I returned to Lake Austin Spa and Resort for the first time since it came under new ownership. The resort is now owned by a REIT (real estate investment trust), which typically focuses on maximizing profits by cutting costs—and unfortunately, the effects are noticeable. What We Enjoyed: - The staff and instructors were wonderful, and the classes remain a highlight of the stay. Where It Fell Short: - The renovations have stripped much of the resort’s former charm. The spaces now feel commercial and impersonal. - The dining room, once cozy, now resembles a nursing home cafeteria. - Beautiful, home-like furniture has been replaced with generic Westin-style pieces. - Harsh LED sconces and bright LED bulbs in the room diminished the tranquil atmosphere. We often had to keep the lights off to avoid being blinded. - Meals were acceptable in taste but frequently served lukewarm rather than hot, which was especially disappointing for soups. Overall, while the people and programming remain excellent, the atmosphere and attention to detail have been compromised under the new management. This resort used to feel like a home away from home, but now it feels like a commercial property prioritizing margins over guest experience and sub par value based on pricing.

Beautiful, serene setting and caring staff created a curated experience for a weekend getaway with my husband. We will be back!

Was there for my birthday and got a massage with my daughter and a friend. My massage was cut short by 10 minutes due to therapist running late. It was an OK massage that I could’ve gotten at Massage Envy for 1/4 of the price. All the water canisters were empty, so it was hard to find water after the massage. A friend of mine called the spa to purchase me a facial as well and instead they gave my daughter a facial mask with a very confusing note . I did reach out to the Spa to let them know about this experience, but never heard back. Lunch was good and the service at lunch was terrific.

No tipping policy freed us of worries. A lot of activities in the am, leaving room for afternoon spa and meditation. Relaxing boat rides too.
