Crystal Clear Luxury at Sparkling Hill
Wellness Rituals Above Okanagan Lake’s Shimmering Shores
BY Adam Waxman
Dining in Crystal Light
Indulge in Shroom with a View at PeakFine for local mushrooms in truffle sauce, with poached eggs, fried enoki and crumbled walnuts. Barrique & Java Chili is a feast for the senses, slow cooked with chorizo and paired with Okanagan wine or local craft beer. Dine on crunchy schnitzel at Gerni’s Farmhouse, an original 16th-century Austrian building dismantled in 2019, shipped to Canada and rebuilt on the resort.
From complimentary plated breakfasts overlooking the lake to dinners beneath glittering crystal ceilings, dining at Sparkling Hill is as much a feast for the senses as it is a nourishing complement to the wellness journey.
Shine bright like a diamond. From the natural beauty of the Okanagan Valley, Sparkling Hill Resort rejuvenates your senses.
Perched on a granite bluff, overlooking Okanagan Lake and the surrounding mountains, this luxury adults-only (16+) 4-Diamond resort offers a serene escape where nature and wellness converge.
Behind its floor-to-ceiling windows lies a constellation of 3.5 million Swarovski crystals that imbue the resort with an ethereal sense of scintillation. In its heart lies the 3716 sq.m. (40,000 sq. ft.) KurSpa. Exclusive to hotel guests, you can feel like a kid in a candy store with over 100 different treatments designed to nourish relaxation and healing.
Water is central to restoration at the European-inspired KurSpa. Guests can indulge in massages, exfoliations, body wraps, and the signature -110°C Cryo Cold Chamber Treatment. Fully monitored and equipped with protective gear, guests enter the chamber where skin temperature drops to about 5 degrees Celsius. The effect on your body may boost circulation and nervous system health.
The resort’s year-round outdoor infinity pool, indoor serenity pool with underwater music, and hot tub provide tranquil spaces for swimming, soaking, and quiet reflection in every season. Seven themed steam rooms and saunas, aromatic showers, a Kneipp hydrotherapy circuit enhance the sensory journey. Wellness classes including yoga, hiking, and fitness sessions along with personalized wellness programs, further enhance your health and relaxation journeys.
Wellness at Sparkling Hill extends beyond soothing heat and cooling waters. One of the resort’s signature offerings is the Joyful Weight Loss program, a seven-night retreat designed to help guests cultivate a healthier relationship with food and body awareness without rigid dieting or deprivation. Instead of calorie counting, this program emphasizes mindful eating, portion awareness, and metabolic insight supported by Bod Pod body-composition analysis.
Throughout the week, guided group sessions explore emotional and habitual eating patterns, helping participants make food choices that support long-term wellbeing. Gourmet meals become part of the learning process, showing that health and pleasure can co-exist.
Like a one-of-a-kind crystal, Sparkling Hill’s personalized wellness and spa treatments reveal your inner brilliance. (www.sparklinghill.com)
