Miraval Austin

The day before I left to come to Miraval in Austin, I sat down and read a couple reviews and thought...oh oh. I am so glad I booked before I read the reviews as it honestly may have changed my decision to book. I can not see how anyone could be disappointed in this lovely place. I am not sure if all the rooms are similar but I was in Lot 3 and the accommodations were above expected. I did not feel they were outdated at all. I spoke to many guests and almost everyone had been to a Miraval more than once. Many had said that out of all the Miravals, Austin was their favorite and have been to that location specifically multiple times. And I can see why. The grounds were lovely. The service was friendly and personable. I solely chose Miraval as it had so much more to offer in activities then say your typical yoga/wellness and resort spa. I found that you needed to stay a full 3 nights to get a taste of all that Miraval has to offer. I stayed from Wednesday to Saturday and it was perfect. Not very busy. Relaxing. Highlights for me were the Just Cook for Me experience, Cardio Drumming (so fun!!) and the Moonlight Ceremony. I truly can't say enough about Miraval. I will definitely be back.

Property was very nice. Wide offering in terms of activities. Coaches/instructors were very friendly. Perfect place for wellness experience.

This is such an amazing and special place! It has so many activities and the talk with Lori about Life in Balance is unforgettable. The challenge was incredible and it is freeing to know that you can accomplish anything if you set your mind to you. Live in the moment and show gratitude. I am trying to extend the Miraval mode back home.

We only had two days and one night, but we got so much out of it! I came away feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. Floating yoga, cardio drumming, sound bath, spa, etc. When I think about everything we did, it sounds packed, but it didn't feel rushed. It was just the right mix of good food, good fun, peaceful and playful. It was all so good! Thank you! (I would add photos, but there is a "unplug and be present" no phones policy, so all I have are beautiful memories. Totally worth it!)

Great experience and classes, beautiful property. Food is limited, runs out quickly and service is very slow at the restaurant. There is no enough grab n' go options or snack options, especially as the restaurant is closed between 2:30 and dinner service. There is also no "late night" food options.
