MIRAVAL MASK POLICY & SAFETY STANDARDS
Effective Immediately
On September 8th, 2021 the town of Lenox, Massachusetts has updated its mask protocol to the following:
All guests and colleagues are now required to wear a mask indoors at all times and outdoors when social distancing cannot be maintained. This is regardless of vaccination status.
Complimentary masks are available to all guests at the Front Desk of Discovery Cottage.
For the safety and protection of spa colleagues, we will continue to require all guests and colleagues to wear face coverings in spas and salons, with the exception of facial services.
Guided by our purpose of care, Miraval Berkshires will continue to abide by the safety procedures established by our trusted panel of medical experts and industry advisors in the Global Biorisk Advisory Council (GBAC).
Miraval Berkshires remains committed to operating at the highest level of safety and will continue following the recommendations of the World Health Organization (WHO), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the American Hotel & Lodging Association (AHLA).
Guests who are not vaccinated and are not willing to comply with the policy may either stay in their guestroom throughout their visit or they will be asked to leave the premises.
