Secluded, Romantic Yurt w/Hot Tub at The Yurtopian - "Dottie"

After more than 20 years of traveling around the globe and living in far-flung regions, Ann-Tyler and Brian Konradi settled in Wimberley, Texas, where they enjoy the small-town atmosphere and peaceful setting of the Texas Hill Country.

In 2019, they created The Yurtopian to provide a unique experience for guests to come relax in a private retreat with luxury vibes. They found beautiful, brightly colored Mongolian yurts during their travels and knew they would be perfect for the experience they wanted to create.

The Yurtopian reputation grew as their guests began sharing their experiences. Soon they began to receive attention from the media as well as influencers. They eventually created a similar experience in the hills near Dripping Springs. With more land and a wet-weather creek, they could add 10 yurts with the same luxury amenities in a peaceful and private setting.

The Yurtopian now has 16 yurts – each one tucked into the woods, carefully curated with vintage furnishings, and a lot of attention to the details of view corridors and maximum privacy. The original yurts are named for their daughters and other yurts are named for friends and family.

Each of our "remote" yurts are situated more than 300 feet apart from one another. They are designed to have complete privacy on the lower deck so that you can walk between your yurt, bathroom, hot tub, fire pit, and kitchen without being visible to any other guests on property.

Whether you are visiting the area for work, enjoying a romantic getaway with your partner, or seeking a digital detox as a solo traveler, you'll feel your stress levels drop as you arrive at our property.

Planning a birthday, anniversary, proposal, or surprise celebration? The Yurtopian offers premium upgrades to enhance your experience with thoughtfully curated add-ons designed to make your stay unforgettable. Upgrades include individual and couples massages in our spa yurt, fresh flower bouquets, locally sourced snack baskets, romance packages, and Dark Sky viewing experiences.
