8 WAYS TO RECHARGE YOUR MIND AND BODY AT FAIRMONT WATERFRONT

Looking for a city escape that blends luxury, nature, and wellness? Look no further. Between the sparkling harbour and the city’s lush coastal parks, our downtown oasis is redefining what it means to travel well.

Whether you’re a dedicated yogi, an outdoor enthusiast, or someone simply craving a slower pace, we offer an inspiring lineup of wellness experiences designed to restore, refresh, and recharge.

Here are 8 incredible ways to rejuvenate your mind and body during your stay with us:

  1. Wake Up and Run the Seawall
    Kickstart your day with the Morning Runs program — a complimentary, guided jog along Vancouver’s iconic seawall. Led by friendly Fairmont staff, the group meets twice weekly for a 45-minute run that’s suitable for all levels. It’s a great way to take in scenic views of Stanley Park and the harbour while connecting with other wellness-minded travelers. 
  2. Stretch and Breathe Poolside
    From June through August, guests can join weekly yoga and meditation sessions on the hotel’s rooftop pool deck. Led by local wellness expert Tianne Allan, these sessions combine breathwork and movement with panoramic views of the North Shore mountains — creating the perfect environment for a calm, grounded morning. 
  3. Dive into Year-Round Relaxation
    Fairmont Waterfront’s heated rooftop pool is open 365 days a year. Whether you’re floating under blue skies or soaking in the warmth after a day of exploring, the serene pool environment offers breathtaking views and a peaceful escape from the city buzz — right in the heart of downtown. 
  4. Travel Light with Fairmont Fit
    Limited suitcase space? No problem. Thanks to a partnership with Reebok, Fairmont Waterfront offers its ALL members the chance to borrow fitness wear and shoes for free. This thoughtful perk means you can stay active without the baggage. 
  5. Cruise the City on Two Wheels
    As an ALL member, you can hop on a complimentary cruiser bike and take off on a ride through nearby Stanley Park or the waterfront trail. The hotel also provides guidance on the best routes, with kids’ bikes and accessories available nearby for families looking to explore together. 
  6. Paddle, Play, and Bottomless Brunch
    During the summer months, the Board & Brunch experience combines paddleboarding in English Bay with the hotel’s signature bottomless brunch. It’s led by Fairmont’s charismatic CPO (Chief Paddle Officer) Tobias Clare and offers a one-of-a-kind way to see Vancouver’s coastline — with seals and eagles often making surprise appearances. 
  7. Yoga, Sound Bath, and Bottomless Brunch 
    Unwind with a tranquil yoga and sound bath experience as part of our Soothe & Savour summer program, running from June through August. Thoughtfully designed to relax your body and calm your mind, the experience is perfectly paired with our beloved Bottomless Brunch—a delicious reward for your mindful movement.
  8. Cold Plunge, Warm Soul
    For the brave and the bold, the hotel’s Polar Plunge experience (November–February) invites guests to dive into the refreshing waters of Third Beach — a true Vancouver tradition. Led by Fairmont Waterfront’s CPO (Chill Experience Officer), this invigorating ritual includes hot tea, cozy amenities, and access to the Health Club afterward, topped off with the hotel’s famous bottomless brunch.

Fairmont Waterfront offers a wellness-focused retreat, inviting you to experience Vancouver through movement, mindfulness, and meaningful connection. Whether you’re here for a weekend or an extended stay, you’ll find thoughtful opportunities to care for your body and soul. And the best part? You don’t need to sacrifice comfort or luxury.
