Luxury spa-resort Miraval offers economic downturn packages

Job layoff got you down? Home foreclosure looming? Credit card bills piling up?

Don’t worry there’s an escape from all this economic gloom and doom. Miraval, the swanky resort and spa near Catalina, is offering packages – starting at a mere $399 per person, per night – to invigorate the mind and revitalize the spirit. That even includes one spa service per day, a $125 value.

Throw in an extra $200 per person and you’ll get one of Miraval’s luxurious new sustainable rooms with “sexy outdoor showers and over-sized Roman tubs.” After all, there’s nothing like some Roman-style opulence in an economic downturn.

Incidentally, Miraval, 5000 E. Via Estancia Miraval, seems to be joining the trend of many Tucson resorts – which are offering unprecedented deals as the peak travel season starts because of lagging occupancy rates.

So, find room on that credit card and take a much needed break. Experts agree it’ll be good for you.

Sure your financial woes may still be around when get back, but you’ll be more refreshed.

  1. If I want to waste money I don’t have then I’ll CHARGE IT!!

    Of course right after this stay I will need to file bankruptcy!!!

    I’m sure it is great, but it would be nice if REDD STAR actually had real news!
