Austin Has Powers

Weve always relished spending the day in our bathrobe.

We did just that at the luscious Lake
Austin Spa Resort in Texan Hill Country (glam girls Renee Z. and
Sandra B. have lounged here). We followed up our mind-blowing Seven
Centers Life Chakra Massage ($195) with laps in the pool barn and lunch
made from herbs picked in the spas organic garden.

Overnighters can sign up for cooking classes with Food Network chefs,
take a bird-watching cruise or do yoga on the dock. Book a lake-view
room with private porch, or feel like a First Lady in the sumptuous Lady
Bird Suite with fine antiques, hot tub and private wildflower garden.

We may never get dressed again.
