I wont be going… because your critiques were major pet peeves for me, and for the price, I expect luxury and full on pampering without being treated like I’m in line waiting for my sandwich order. I am pricing resorts and planning a huge trip for 12 guests. We are considering CIVANA because Miraval hasn’t been living up to standards from what I have heard in a few video reviews. I’m also interested in something more holistic, organic, low tox, etc.
Oh good - thank you Nicole! This is exactly why I always include “cons” on every review. I want you to at least know, so you can decide whether it’s worth it 💕 I haven’t heard of CIVANA, but I’m going to look it up. You’re undoubtedly incredibly organized to plan such a nice trip for 12! 💕
To reassure you: coyotes howling don't mean they have made a kill. That's one of those pesky urban myths. They are simply communicating. Perhaps you heard them because they are a spirit animal of yours.
Oh good!!!! Lol, that really makes me feel better - my heart sunk when I heard them howling. Part of me was crushed, thinking they killed a poor animal, the other part thought... "But they have to eat, too.," Maybe there ARE my spirit animal!!! 💕
My pleasure! Yes it's PERFECT for besties of any kind. Last time I went with my sister, this year I'm taking Mom. Some women were there by themselves to recharge. It's such a come-as-you-are kind of place, you always feel welcomed ;-)
Just joined your channel! Looking forward to some more spa critiques! Do you ever cruise? If so, I'd like to hear about them! Thank you, you are so perfect!
Welcome @Secondeve ! I'm happy to have you as part of our community. Here's another Spa review I did of Rancho Valencia in San Diego, CA: ua-cam.com/video/BCIZ9yZZFec/v-deo.html I've only cruised a couple of times, but will probably do so again in the future so that I can review for everyone ;-). I mean - SOMEONE'S gotta do it, right ;-)
Hi Kelly! Pricing based on single occupancy (what I’m talking about in the video) means that the room price is per person. So, if the room is $1k/night, and you want to share the room with a friend - you BOTH pay $1k /night, and of course you BOTH get everything that is included. So, you may as well get your own rooms - as it’s the same price. HOWEVER- from time to time Miraval will run a “double occupancy” special - in which case the price of the room is based on double occupancy- so you and a friend can room together, split the price, and yes - both receive everything that is included 🫠💕
Tracy you MUST! Especially if you live close. I actually just found out that from time to time, they offer Double Occupancy rates (so you can split the room cost with a friend). SO.... I'm going again with my sister in August, lol. ;-). Maybe I'll see you there!
Hi Elle! I did not take part (equine) BUT my sister and I are going back to Miraval in August, and I'm DEFINITELY scheduling it. My girlfriend did it, and she said it was truly amazing, relaxing and peaceful ;-)
Thank you for the review. Incidentally the critiques that you mentioned were not nit-picky at all. For the amount of money being spent, that should be the expectation; complete world-class service. I don't believe Oprah received that type of service?

The resort sounds great, but those critiques are spot on for what I'd expect at a high end spa. Thanks for sharing 🙏
Yes totally - it’s a really great experience but it’s the details. Every time a service provider yelled “SHELLI!!??” It was like a pebble in my shoe🥹

Great review. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
No, your critiques are not nitpicky. I think they are reasonable expectations for that price point.
@@crecasens I think so too 😉
I could just cry! I would love this!! Definitely looking into it for later when Az cools down!
It's such a magical place ;-)

Tucson is spelled wrong in your video title!! MIRAVAL Resort & Spa REVIEW (Tuscan, AZ)
I know. Saw that after it was posted.
Arizona is on my dream list! I don't think I'd go to dinner in a robe but it's good to know about the rules/norms of the resort.
😂 I totally had robe-dinner 🫣💕
It looks very rejuvenating. I love the desert sunrises n sunsets and always thought they were a nice way to start or end the day.
You’d love it 💕
Thank you for sharing your experience, it was very helpful
You are so welcome!
Pretty sure your SISTER would love this. Just sayin'! lol
Perhaps she WOULD as long as she is NICE to her big sister 😌
Everybody needs a spa day! Miraval doesn't sound like my cup of tea--but I'm really glad you reviewed it, so now I know! :-)
Now you know! ;-)
Exactly, not my cup of tea…
So glad I found your channel! You’re amazing!
Thank you so much, Jackie! Welcome to the community - I’m happy you are here ;-)
Very informative!! Sounds like a great getaway for good friends !! Thank you for all the great tips like planning hikes and services early!!

Thank you for posting this!! So, if I were to share a double bedroom with someone they don't get to all that is included to?

I live only 2.5 hours from this resort! Definitely adding this to my spa bucket list. Thanks for all the info ☺️ Loving the luxury spa series!
Tracy you MUST! Especially if you live close. I actually just found out that from time to time, they offer Double Occupancy rates (so you can split the room cost with a friend). SO.... I'm going again with my sister in August, lol. ;-). Maybe I'll see you there!
I just came back from a week-long SPA retreat myself :D granted, not a luxury one, but it was nice and relaxing, anyway ;)
OMG don't you feel amazing??? I'm so happy for you Marta - you DESERVE that one! ;-)
It’s Tucson not Tuscan and it is beautiful, serene and worth it 😊
It was an accidental typo, but thank you.
This was like getting to go there. I watched while spinning and it was such a fun treat ❤
Isn't it relaxing?? I rewatched it myself just so I could relax lol
Aww thanks for the shoutout Annie... love your videos!
you are so welcome! I love having you here
Thanks for this review! I can’t wait to go. Did you take part in the equine experience?
Hi Elle! I did not take part (equine) BUT my sister and I are going back to Miraval in August, and I'm DEFINITELY scheduling it. My girlfriend did it, and she said it was truly amazing, relaxing and peaceful ;-)
@@AnnieParkerConfidential thanks so much! I’m going in June and am so excited!
@@elleenge2978 I’m SO EXCITED FOR YOU!!! Pls let me know what you thought about it afterwards!!
Love the review! Thank you :)
My pleasure!
Hi
Hi Stephanie ;-)
Tuscan = Tucson.
Yes I know. I’ve noted several times that it was a typo.
@@AnnieParkerConfidential It's very easy to fix! Just have the person who uploads your videos fix the title. Been to Miraval many times...it's great
Thank you for the review. Incidentally the critiques that you mentioned were not nit-picky at all. For the amount of money being spent, that should be the expectation; complete world-class service. I don't believe Oprah received that type of service?
Completely agree. (It is the expectation). Especially considering that they market it as a high-end luxury destination with commensurate pricing. 🥰
