The air’s filled with the sweet scent of spruce, the lakes are sparkling in the sunshine and it’s the perfect time of year to explore the great outdoors: it must be summer in Whistler.

Dip your toe into the healthy west coast lifestyle at Nita Lake Lodge, Whistler’s only lakeside hotel, and hop on one of their two new complimentary kayaks or two stand-up paddleboards. As part of the summer wellness experience at Nita Lake, guests can also enjoy complimentary fishing rods or borrow a bike to explore the Valley Trail, which begins on the boutique hotel’s doorstep and connects all of Whistler’s neighbourhoods, lakes and parks.

Summer wellness continues at Nita Lake Lodge Spa, where their philosophy of serenity, health, rejuvenation and wellness has been further enhanced with a renovation that includes a new pedicure station, comfy furniture and local artwork. New products from ila, a luxury organic range from the UK, have been added to the spa menu in treatments such as the ‘Bio-Rhythms’ massage and wrap, which restores the body’s bio-magnetic energy field. Guests can meditate and practice yoga with Loka Yoga or combine gym workouts and the great outdoors with Innovative Fitness.

Wellness begins on the inside and at the hotel’s FIX deli and café organic, vegan and gluten-free baked goods mean that guests can treat themselves to a healthy sweet treat this summer. Mint from the garden will be appearing in housemade ice cream and Executive Chef Michael Guy uses the freshest ingredients for his summer menu at Aura. This season he is featuring sungold cherry tomatoes from Root Down Farm and mizuna, tatsoi greens, ping-pong radishes and costata zucchinis picked from the hotel’s very own rooftop ‘Chef’s Garden’.

“Nita Lake Lodge perfectly embodies the Whistler lifestyle of enjoying great food and outdoor activities in the fresh mountain air,” says Mike Duggan, General Manager at Nita Lake Lodge. “Guests can relax while taking in our stunning surroundings. Being the only lakeside hotel in Whistler means visitors can enjoy our amazing mountain views from their spacious rooms and then get out on the lake to enjoy an adventure on our new kayaks and stand-up paddleboards.”
