WET's Swim Club

Overview

Melbourne is littered with public outdoor pools and great beaches, but sometimes you want the luxe private pool experience. This usually comes with booking a room at one of Melbourne's best hotels or signing up to an exorbitantly priced private members' club, but most of us don't want to go that far for a little dip.

To solve this problem, W Melbourne has started up its midweek Swim Club, which runs 8am–8pm from Monday–Friday. During these times, you can book a poolside session at the sky-high indoor pool WET and stick around for as long as you like.

You'll have access to the pool, steam room and fully equipped gymnasium FIT, plus you'll get a mocktail, bottle of water and fruit platter delivered to your sun lounger. This doesn't come cheap, at $98 per person, but it's the price you pay for semi-private luxury.

If you're on a budget and want to swim on a cold day, these heated Melbourne pools are a heap cheaper. But those of you seeking a day of swimming and relaxing without crowds — while looking out over the city skyline — can consider booking a spot at WET's Swim Club.
