A+ Privacy | Romantic Lux | Sauna | Hot/Cold Pool

Wimberley`s only PRIVATE wellness circuit: infrared sauna, hot/cold therapy plunge, and rainfall outdoor shower, followed by daybed recovery and fire pit wind-down on 10 secluded acres behind Wimberley Winery.

Designed for couples who want a real reset, not just a weekend away. A standalone sanctuary with zero shared amenities.

Salamandra is designed for couples who need to slow down together, whether that`s a long weekend to reconnect, an anniversary to celebrate, a birthday escape, or just a reset from the noise of daily life. The fully fenced spa yard is yours alone: no schedules, no distractions, just the two of you.

✦ Private wellness circuit: infrared sauna → hot/cold plunge → rainfall shower → daybed → fire pit
✦ Fully fenced spa yard, yours alone
✦ 10 secluded acres behind Wimberley Winery
✦ No shared amenities
✦ King bed, luxury kitchen, nugget ice, 100-200+ Mbps WiFi
✦ Luxe add-ons: private chef, celebration setups, early check-in

🔥 The wellness circuit
We designed the private spa yard to be experienced together. It`s a rhythm of heat, water, and rest that naturally strips away stress:

**The Heat:** Share the silence, or deep conversation, in the 2-person infrared sauna.
**The Refresh:** Not just a cold plunge. This tub (not jetted) features hot and cold taps so you can dial in your perfect temperature, from a cool 60° refresh to a steamy 100°+ soak.
**The Calm:** Dry off and sink into the shaded outdoor daybed beneath the pergola. Robes on. Wine in hand. Nowhere to be.
**The Unwind:** End the circuit by the fire pit, under dark Texas skies. No agenda. No schedule. Just the two of you.

🛏️ Inside the cabin
Handcrafted details throughout: 2-inch wood slabs, cedar accents, copper finishes, soft ambient lighting. Double glass doors open the living space to your private yard. Plush king mattress with multiple pillow options. Freshly laundered linens, duvet cover, and towels for every stay.

🍽️ Kitchen + outdoor dining
We provide the tools; you bring the ingredients. Full kitchen with high-end appliances, quality cookware, nugget ice maker, and premium coffee setup. Outside: ceramic grill, dining area with misting fans (summer) and heaters (winter).

Good location

I stayed in the small bungalow. The property was very clean and had some luxurious accents. I did enjoy linen bedsheets. Loved the outdoors shower. This bungalow may be too small for a family even though it does have lofts for kids. Very centrally located and is near HEB and downtown Wimberley. There are cameras around the bungalow which helps with the safety. Eder was great with helping me get checked in even though we had some small hiccups.

The property was exactly as pictured. So serene and relaxing. The town of Wimberly was like being in a little Hallmark town and we had a blast at the Winery. Will absolutely be staying here again. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and everything the property had to offer.

anniversary stay

It was a really sweet place. The patio makes it so worthwhile with a sauna, tub, outdoor shower, cozy sitting areas, various settings of lightings, misting fans, we really had a relaxed, romantic and sweet time celebrating our anniversary. The actual place is a little smaller inside but contains all of the amenities and was super cute. I had a little trouble checking in but it was vrbo's fault as they had an old phone number to verify the code but it was quickly resolved. We plan to return! Great place!

We had an AMAZING time. The place was beautiful, the perfect getaway to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary ❤️. We enjoyed spending most our time right outside playing the outdoor games, relaxing, grilling, being in the hot tub the sauna and the outdoor shower was a plus perfect to cool off. The room was spotless and the decor is beautiful. Eder was a great host 😊 We will definitely be back.

This is not a hot tub, it does leak and it took all day to fill, no hot water....just think twice if you really need a good soak, either hot or cold. Just can't give that 5 stars, otherwise I'd love to...

Perfect anniversary getaway

We loved our stay! The owner paid attention to detail when building this cozy resort. We enjoyed the tub and the water temperature was perfect. I do recommend you using both hot and cold water together since we only had hot water running for majority of time and it did take longer than expected to fill up. The sauna worked great and was a nice bonus to our stay. The bed comfortable and shower was also great, I wish it was bigger but I understand it's smaller than average given size of property. The outdoor fire pit was great also and owner provided firewood as well as s'mores packet which we enjoyed. I do recommend taking a fire starter since it did take a while to get fire going. Our only regret with this property was not staying more days. It was truly a magical stay and my wife and I will consider returning for a future getaway.
