HISTORY: Miraval was founded in 1995 with a simple yet powerful vision: life is more meaningful and enjoyable when physical, emotional, social, spiritual and intellectual components are in balance. As with their flagship location Miraval Arizona, Miraval Austin’s guests come individually or with family and friends to relax, refresh, and learn to live and feel better. There are no strict regimens. Instead, choice is the guiding principle, with a wide range of programs and experiences designed to create overall well-being and help guests become more aware of themselves and their surroundings. They learn to live in the moment through means that work best for them.

Miraval’s pioneering approach to activities, experiences and spa treatments helps to define the destination spa industry that has flourished worldwide. In the past two decades Miraval has been consistently recognized by the most respected voices in luxury travel, including Condé Nast Traveler, Travel + Leisure, World Spa + Wellness, and SpaFinder, just to name a few.
