The Natural Mirage near Rice Village
Summary: We offer a specific ambience and fantasy so you can feel the relaxation and comfort as soon as you walk through the door. Feel the peaceful and stylish atmosphere that surrounds you in H-Town. This apartment is located in a GREAT central location to bars, restaurants, medical areas, and NRG Stadium. Easy access to highways and airports. Conveniently located inside the Loop, near Texas Medical Center, Rice University, and Rice Village.
The Space: You will be able to sit out on the patio and feel the local vibe. You can also turn on the soft lights on the patio with a glass of wine. It is the perfect couples retreat with enough room for the kids. It's also perfect for the girls or boys trip so you can relax and have a great time. The Natural Mirage offers plenty of room for the kids with a sleeper sofa so everyone can enjoy the lavish accommodations. We recently added a new gaming console in the guest room. This console is connected to the TV much like a firestick. Once you access the appropriate HMDI input on the TV then you can play over 20,000 Arcade Games from the 70's through the 90's from all over the world. The Natural Mirage also has a TV in every room.
It is also the perfect location for traveling Nurses since The Natural Mirage is located right in the Heart of Houston's World Renowned Medical District. Literally down the street from Helix Park, the collaborative medical research center currently under construction, and expected to be completed in 2025. You will be able to spread out and enjoy the awesome amenities that The Natural Mirage has to offer. Why not enter into a fantasy and escape the city for a moment to relax at The Natural Mirage.
