In light of recent traveler demand for increased health and wellness options, Hyatt Hotels Corp. announced its acquisition of Miraval Group, a renowned provider of wellness and mindfulness experiences.

Under the new acquisition terms, Miraval will form a new distinct wellness category within the Hyatt portfolio of brands, while also continuing standalone operation of its resorts and spas.

Hyatt will procure flagship Miraval Arizona Resort & Spa and will continue Miraval’s plan to redevelop the Travaasa Resort in Austin, Texas. The acquisition also includes the redevelopment of the Cranwell Spa & Golf Resort in Lenox, Mass.

The acquisition and redevelopment of these Miraval resorts is in addition to Hyatt’s increased fitness options and a special program launched in 2014 called “Food. Thoughtfully Sourced, Carefully Served,” featuring specially curated menus with healthy, sustainable food options.

“The Miraval acquisition reflects our commitment to super serving the high-end traveler and finding new ways to understand and care for them,” said Mark Hoplamazian, president and chief executive officer, Hyatt Hotels Corp. “We know that wellness is an area that is becoming increasingly important to our guests and we share Miraval’s belief that wellness is more than fitness and nutrition — it’s a lifestyle.”
