So where are my absolute favorite places to indulge myself in absolute luxury and not leave town? Well besides my own bathtub and favorite soaking salts, I have a few secret hideaways that I'll share!

Well, it's probably no secret at all the the The Lakehouse Spa is a first-class escape. It's unassuming entrance makes you wonder if it's reputation could really be that fabulous. However, once you slip into your robe andexperience the amazing service, you'll soon realize why it is one of America's best spa resorts. You sit in a room to wait for your massage that is so relaxing you can literally fall asleep next to a crackling fireplace while reading your favorite book even before your massage. The smell of lavendar and dim lights add to the calming experience. After your massage, you won't be able to speak you'll be so relaxed. Hungry? You can have lunch while still in your robe, at the Aster Cafe. Fresh, organic yummies are on the menu. The views from the cafe will have the pool or lake calling you for a stroll after your light meal. You can sit by the pool or retreat to a guest room suite if you wish. The experience will have you coming back for more! Still want more? You can buy a day package and have multiple treatments for a totally decadent experience. hint hint..honey!

Shhhhh.....this is a secret! If you're not a golfer then you may not know about the quaint country club tucked away in the rolling hills of Barton Creek. The Barton Creek Country Club is such an unexpectedly fabulous place to spend your afternoon. Sit poolside and order a few drinks. You can golf or not, but finish off your day at the spa or having an amazing meal at thegrill or in the restaurant...you can't go wrong either way.

Another little luxury right here in our little city is to sit in tent row at the Victory Polo Match. Austin's premier polo matches are held twice a year and you can dine, sip and enjoy the match under white tents as the horses thunder by. You'll feel like you're in New England on the hottest day they've ever had! Don't miss the experience and bring some friends. It's a social luxury you don't want to miss.

Finally, the last and final luxurious way to spend an evening is to be out on Lake Travis at sunset with your love. Don't have a boat? Well rent one! You have to do it at least once.
