MIRAVAL MODE
We at Miraval believe the journey to creating life in balance begins with allowing yourself to be fully present and engaged in the moment. We established device-free zones to support you in having the most rewarding and inspiring Miraval experience – and to give yourself permission to unplug. Use technology only in designated locations noted on the back cover map and honor your Miraval experience by being mindful of the moment and respectful of your fellow guests. *E-readers are permitted.
You may be approached by a Miraval colleague to suspend digital usage in areas not designated for digital devices.

WHAT TO PACK
Arizona is known for its warm sunny days year round with a blanket of coolness in the desert morning and evenings. For maximum comfort we suggest layers of athletic or yoga wear during your day. Evening dining is resort casual and a light wrap or fleece for the cooler desert evening is suggested.
All equestrian activities require long pants and closed toed shoes. Challenge activities require tennis shoes. Spa services such as Aqua Zen require a swimsuit and other services such as Thai massage require loose comfortable clothing.
We recommend bringing the following items: sunscreen, hat, sunglasses, yoga wear, workout clothing, and swimsuit, running and hiking shoes, camera and journal. Check current weather conditions prior to arrival to pack accordingly.
COMPLIMENTARY AIRPORT SHUTTLE
Miraval provides complimentary airport shuttle service to/from Tucson International Airport. Please call 800.815.3949 or email arizona.transportation@miravalresorts.com to share your airline carrier, flight number along with arrival and departure times. You must provide your air travel information at least 48 hours prior to arrival in order to utilize the complimentary airport shuttle van.
Upon arrival at the Tucson International Airport, proceed to the baggage claim area where our driver will meet you with a Welcome To Miraval sign. If you do not see a Miraval driver right away, please wait at the baggage claim for your airline as the driver may be greeting other guests that arrived on different flights. Should you not see a driver within about 10 minutes please call the resort operator at 520.825.4000.
Departure vans leave the resort on the hour, as needed. The last complimentary shuttle departs the resort at 2 pm. Travel time to the airport is one hour so you will be scheduled to depart Miraval two hours before your flight time (for example: if your flight departs Tucson International Airport at 3:10pm, you will leave Miraval on the 1pm shuttle). The afternoon prior to your departure, you will receive a detailed letter in your room mail box with your departure and luggage pickup time.
If the complimentary shuttle does not meet your needs, we can arrange private transportation for an additional fee
RESORT CREDITS
If your package includes resort credits, you may apply them toward any fee-based experience during your Miraval visit. Resort credits can be used for spa services, private sessions, classes, and activities that have fees. These credits cannot be transferred between guests or toward future visits, toward purchases in the restaurant/bar, Raindance Pass Boutique, Spa Retail, online store, or toward tuition fees for Miraval immersions.
SCHEDULING ACTIVITIES, PRIVATE SESSIONS, & SPA SERVICES
We encourage you to explore all wellness experiences and start customizing your itinerary as soon as possible. Many of our signature activities and spa services have limited spots available, fill up quickly, and require advance sign up prior to your arrival. Don’t let the opportunity to enhance your Miraval itinerary with an Experience Planner pass you by.
Our dedicated team of Experience Planners are here to help you. Please reach out to them with any questions or requests by phone at 1.800.232.3969 or by email at arizona.experience.planning@miravalresorts.com.

GRATUITIES & TIPPING

HYDRATION
Staying hydrated will help you acclimate to our beautiful Sonoran Desert environment. We ask that you please take the necessary precautions while enjoying your visit. Be sure to wear sunglasses, use sunblock, exercise moderation in your outdoor activities and drink plenty of liquids. Water stations are located throughout the resort (see the map on the back cover of your Miraval Weekly Guide for cooler locations). Please bring your reusable water bottle to all classes and activities. Replenishing your body’s natural water supply daily will ensure comfort and health.
WILDLIFE
The desert is home to some of the most beautiful and resilient animals. Among the creatures that call this desert home include tortoises, the Gila monster, rattlesnakes, coyotes, vultures, tarantulas, and many other rare and enthralling species. Because our property rests in the heart of the Sonoran Desert, we recommend that you do not leave any windows or doors open, welcoming any desert wildlife into your room.
SAFETY & SECURITY
Your safety is important to us. Miraval security staff routinely patrol the resort property. Should you have any concerns, please dial the resort operator. All Miraval staff are required to identify themselves by department name prior to entering a guest room. Please activate the deadbolt for maximum security and privacy. If you see or hear any suspicious activity, please report your observations to management. Do not leave valuables in your room. Place valuables in the provided room safe.
