Culinary & Dining
Here, eating well is not about denying yourself, but about slowing down and taking the time to enjoy and appreciate food—not just what it tastes like, but where it comes from and how it’s prepared.
At Miraval Arizona, each overnight stay includes three healthful and delicious meals, unlimited fresh, made-to-order smoothies, and snacks throughout the day—from small bites to fine dining, the choices are endless.
Mindful Eating
Our signature restaurants create inventive, nutrient-dense, and balanced menus that elevate health and sustain the environment and farmers who provide for us. The food you’ll eat at Miraval Arizona celebrates the desert’s distinct tastes and textures, including fresh ingredients from our very own garden.
Choose from a number of inspired options—whether in our restaurants, poolside, on a bench under palm trees or in the comfort of your room.
Life in Balance Culinary Kitchen
Open and experiential, our state-of-the-art educational culinary facility is home to our signature hands-on culinary workshops, as well as special events and celebrations.
This special space allows you to learn alongside Miraval’s culinary team and understand the right tools and techniques to add flavor and texture to healthy meals. You’ll leave with new interests and insights to use in your own kitchen.
Cactus Flower Restaurant
Linger inside or luxuriate on the patio at our main restaurant, serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner daily. Overlooking the Catalina Mountains, our primary restaurant is a space for guests to cross paths, connect, and share their love of food. Each dish harnesses the skills of our chefs and the knowledge of our Miraval nutritionists so you can be confident that every choice is a healthy one.
Please note that reservations are required for dinner at Cactus Flower Restaurant.
