General - I love this location. Easy/fast/direct to get to from the East Coast. Updated and more modern than the Tucson property. Check in/out is always easy. Staff were friendly and very helpful! Generally less workout classes at this property and more spiritual type sessions while Tucson tends to be more athletic and nutrition focused in my experience. Love them both for different reasons. This time around there was a crazy amount of golf carts and it was inconsistent in how they approached guests walking on the paths they shared. Get like I was constantly moving out of the way for them. Rooms - I like that these rooms are way more updated than Tucson. Lack of consistency with daily room servicing and turn down yet responsive when called. A little challenging to get non- feather pillows despite asking several times. Spa - Serenity spa body treatment with Marc was excellent. Molly did a fantastic job with an 80 min apothecary massage and then recommended I see Kathy for Thai massage which was phenomenal! They all really help me work through some pain in my left hip. Can’t say enough about this spa - service, pool, everything. Friends I traveled with really enjoyed their radiant treatment, jade meridian session and a massage with Himalayan bowls. Wish the bathing suit spinner worked better. Sometimes the women’s locker room and quiet room can be overwhelmingly crowded but the staff inside the locker rooms and at check are lovely. Discovery Pool - this is a great pool! Only thing I wished was different is that there was a larger bathroom with changing room and bathing suit spinner. This is where the water classes take place and it’s hard to change with little time to make it to next classes. Dining - there is a new gentlemen who is a manager in the morning I think. He is lovely and very friendly. I just can’t figure out why they can’t figure out the service at the restaurant - at all three meal times. Very kind and friendly people but service is incredibly slow and you have to ask for things several times. Food is good. Like the options and the variety. Wish they rotated more of the deserts. Also like the nest - especially when they put out the avocado chocolate cookies and the power balls. The new barista makes excellent drinks. Love the booster juice shot and the fresh drink options but they are constantly running out of things. Classes - although there are less classes here than in Tucson, I very much enjoy the variety of classes here and that they are somewhat different from the other locations. Really enjoyed the imperfections class and the Yoga Nidra session. I took the love of lavender class and it was fantastic! I also enjoy all the various stretching classes. Wish they open the barn doors more during yoga classes. I usually love and highly recommend the TexZen Yoga class but this year it was disappointing. I’m also increasingly frustrated that classes do not start on time because people show up late. And, in a four day visit, why there was only one water class…(I get it the weather was bad but…) Archery was a late add and it was pouring but the instructor and the class was a lot of fun - right balance of teaching, shooting and applying lessons of mindfulness.

Miraval is the best place for any team building event or just to have time to reconnect with yourself. I spent three days at this property and would highly recommend it. The entire staff was very friendly and accommodating. I loved the variety of things to do and the spa availability.

could use updating, Food choices for breakfast and lunch (buffet) were limited to one protein choice , aside from salad toppings. Also sometimes not fully set up on time so if you had somewhere to be you would miss the offering. Snacks at pool were limited to chips with either hummus or salsa..That is it. The Nest grab and go options were limited and the same everyday, often low stock or completely depleted...this could be in part due to not being visible to the staff at counter, so they don't know when it needs re-stocking, just a guess. Activities/ Classes in the portal were few, we were told on check in if a class or activity was not on the portal that meant it was full.   At first I was quite upset as it appeared most things were full weeks before checking in. To mee this meant too many guests, not enough staff or space to accommodate. HOWEVER on second day I decided to stop into the planning office, and I am glad I did. As most classes /activities did have space, lucky me...but for the person that trusts the online portal to do what it is suppose to do they would be very unhappy paying for and expecting a "spa" experience with all the yoga/meditation type classes this spa touts being unavailable. If you're planning a trip I would definitely call to set up your itinerary rather than use the portal. Rooms were clean and comfortable as were the grounds. Could use some updating of public restrooms, no nicer than a Best Western. Spa Hot tub was dated and very small. When I was there there were only 2 ppl in it and I was leery about going in as it would have felt crowded. I had 3 Massages all with Vanessa...after the first one she was my "go-to" OUTSTANDING! FYI I am picky and notice things that some may not as I am in the hospitality industry ( owned restaurants) and my travel companion is in the same field (she actually owns Hotels) I have been to other Spas and would not return to this one, check out Canion Ranch, I've been twice and feel it is much more "spa" like, better food options and variety, abundant classes and outdoor activities, and IMO a better value , as these places are not cheap.

I had to reschedule booking at Miraval resort for May 2024 which ended up in a cheaper room and more resort credit. On checkout, I was charged for original room booked which was over $300 along with incorrect resort credit. Resulting in an overcharge of well over $1000. Have called billing with no resolution. Despite a wonderful stay and relaxing experience, this has negated everything. Will not recommend or go back.

Great Location, quiet and scenery was fantastic. Food was excellent and included in the stay. Ended relaxed and met a lot of very nice people. Staff were great and very personable. Overall a great experience. We would come back again.
