Miramonte Resort and Spa- Destination Hotels & Resorts

Description:

• This collection of 215 rooms in 12 Mediterranean villas covers 11 acres of bougainvillea-filled gardens and Italian fountains. Standard rooms are enlarged to become luxurious minisuites adding a living room area with a second TV. Suites add one or two bedrooms. An extra-large pool has cabanas that can be rented by the day, plus whirlpools, and is the center of activity in the main area. Another pool is designated as adults only, making it a quiet respite for relaxing. An $18 resort fee includes local phone calls, 24-hour fitness center, valet and self-parking, daily newspaper, and Wi-Fi. Dining is especially fine in the Restaurante Brissago, which features a Mediterranean-inspired menu. The Vineyard Lounge offers tapas and local jazz on the weekends. The WELL SPA is a 14,000-square-foot expanse with relaxation suites, mud bars, river benches, and a Watsu pool.
