SHERMAN’S EXCLUSIVE

The Luxury One of the top destinations spas in the country, the intimate 40-room Lake Austin Spa Resort’s standout reputation is owed to a winning combination of impeccable service, mouth-watering cuisine, and Hill Country views over lovely Lake Austin. Set just 35 minutes from Austin, guests here have access to 19 lakefront acres and countless stress-relieving health and wellness opportunities, from the more than 100 indulgent treatments on the menu at the LakeHouse Spa to the robust offerings of daily fitness classes and activities (from kickboxing to kayaking). 

The Value Sherman’s Travel readers can nab exclusive savings of 30 percent off 3- to 7-night packages booked throughout 2010 (expires January 31). Three-night stays (based on double occupancy), including three healthy meals daily, are now priced at $1281 – a savings of $549 off rack rates. 

The Catch Though a $330 spa allowance is included, additional treatments are priced à la carte.
