Consistently voted by our guests as a leader in
spa and travel publications.
Dearest Guest,
When my wife Jean and I first visited
Miraval, we found it to be a truly trans-
formative experience. The magic of the
beautiful 400+ acre property and the ex-
pertise of the caring staff were apparent
from the moment we arrived. We were
so taken by our first stay that we wanted
to become a more permanent part of the Miraval family,
and we decided to invest in the company.
For the past seven years, we have had the pleasure of building
on Miraval’s tremendous legacy, with the goal of taking the
life-changing Miraval experiences to more people in more places.
Every day is unique for every person at Miraval. What makes it
so special is the seemingly endless array of options. You can do
as much or as little as you like. If this is your first visit to Miraval,
the number of options may seem a little bewildering, and trying
new things perhaps a little intimidating. You’ll quickly discover
that everybody working and staying at Miraval is part of a com-
munity that encourages and supports each other. So you have
nothing to fear and much to gain if you allow yourself to venture
outside of your normal comfort zone. Discover what is uniquely
Miraval - and uniquely you.
Thanks again for visiting. I hope your experience here will be
as transformative for you as mine was and that you’ll be back
soon!

The thread that is woven through the entire Miraval experience is MINDFULNESS. The umbrella under which
the Miraval experience is designed is INTEGRATIVE WELLNESS. And the core philosophy governing
the menu of activities and services at Miraval over the past 18 years is LIFE IN BALANCE. At Miraval, we
understand that people are mind-body-spirit beings and that all these elements are intertwined. Each and every class,
lecture, private session, and spa service at Miraval is designed with Mindfulness, Integrative Wellness, and Life in Bal-
ance at the forefront of our minds.
We Believe
It is more than what you see that makes Mi-
raval what it is. Our core belief of living in
the moment combined with sustainability is
uniquely Miraval; when people truly are con-
scious of and enjoying their surroundings,
they realize they want those surroundings to
last.
Join us in our commitment to the environment
and be sure to bring your new, sustainable
water bottle to your activity. Through our ef-
forts we hope to continue to have a net posi-
tive effect on our planet.
You are the “I” in Miraval, where each
individual is recognized as important
and unique. As you move through the
Miraval experience, remember that
this is your time. Take each experience
at your pace, reflect on how it applies
to your unique life experience, and al-
ways know that you are valued and
recognized as an individual.
Imagine a world in which medicine was oriented toward heal-
ing rather than disease, where doctors believed in the natural
healing capacity of human beings and emphasized prevention
above treatment. In such a world, doctors and patients would
be partners working toward the same ends.
- Andrew Weil, M.D.
Mind•ful•ness, noun:
Mindfulness is a state of active, open
attention in the present moment.
When you’re mindful, you observe
your thoughts and feelings without
judgment. Mindfulness means living
in the moment and awakening to
experience.

SO MUCH TO CHOOSE FROM
Choice is paramount at Miraval. This experience guide showcases all of the
amazing options available to you.
THE DAILY SCHEDULE
Refer to the daily schedule pages to find out what time various classes and ac-
tivities are planned. You will notice that some items on the daily schedules are
shaded and require a sign-up. Add your name to the activity cards in the Palm
Court to participate in these experiences.
CUSTOMIZE YOUR STAY
If you see a complimentary activity that you would like to attend, but it’s not on
the day or time that works for you, you’ll find that most of our offerings can easily
be made into a private session or private group. If you have not booked your
spa or private services prior to your arrival, visit Guest Services to secure your
selections.
USING YOUR RESORT CREDIT
If your all-inclusive package includes a nightly resort credit, you may apply it
toward any fee-based offering that is notated with an RC symbol. Miraval offers
more than 90 different complimentary activities and classes to choose from ev-
ery week. Plus, you may apply your nightly resort credit toward more than 175
fee-based experiences, including activities, workshops, spa services, private
sessions, and private groups. Fee-based offerings without an RC symbol will be
an additional cost to your stay package.
SET ASIDE EXTRA TIME FOR YOURSELF
Finally, remember to set aside some of your time for personal reflection – take
a walk through the Labyrinth, sit by the Kiva, lie by the pool, or lounge in the
Quiet Room in our Life in Balance Spa. The self-discovery process is the best
part of the journey!
TEENS AT MIRAVAL
Miraval welcomes guests who are 14 years of age and older. For liability
reasons, to insure the safety of all our guests, and because some class material
is not appropriate for this age group, we offer limited programming to guests
who are under 18 years of age. A supplemental programs guide for teens is
available. Please call Guest Services at x. 4512 for more details. Regular fees
and cancellation policies apply.
In the spa, teens must have their treatments with a same gender pro-
vider, wear undergarments for their massages and facials, and wear
a bathing suit for body treatments unless yoga/fitness attire is recom-
mended in the service description.
NOTE: Miraval expects teenage guests to conduct themselves in a respectful
manner while on property so as not to disrupt the mindful atmosphere that
we create for all our guests. Miraval reserves the right to allow or refuse
participation in these and other experiences on a case-by-case basis.

New Ayurvedic Service
Shamana-Karma • 75 Min/$225 RC
Inspired by the Ayurveda healing rituals dating back thousands of years,
the Shamana-Karma is created to purify and boost its recipient’s immunity
and spirits. The traditional South Indian ‘Karma’ or treatment begins when
you inhale the steamy scents of lemongrass, mint, nutmeg and clove in
the treatment room, engaging your senses. A curative blend of Coconut,
Ginger and Rosemary oils are massaged into the skin using an authentic,
“Vashesh” or deep tissue technique.
The steaming, hand wrapped poultices warm and energize the body
while the deep pressure allows muscles to become supple and release
both their tension and toxins. A warm aromatic wrap follows, finishing
with a cleansing hibiscus plant powder scrub, restoring the vitality of your
skin as well as your spirit.
Ayurveda is a science of life which provides curative and preventive
principles for healthy, long life. It emphasizes preventative and healing therapies along with various methods of purification
and rejuvenation. Ayurveda is more than a healing system; it is a science and art of appropriate living which helps to achieve
longevity. It can also guide every individual in the prevention of disease and long term maintenance of health.

allow you to begin playing your best golf. Consider a new

putting, chipping, bunker play, and game management. 2
