If you’re looking for a wellness getaway then you need to check out Sparkling Hill resort and spa in BC.
Sparkling Hill Resort & Spa sits above the Okanagan Valley in Vernon, about 20 minutes from Kelowna International Airport. Owned by the Swarovski family, the entire space is filled with crystal details that catch the light and really makes this place sparkle. From the spa to infinity pool and its unique offerings like the Cryo Cold chamber there are so many ways to experince wellness here.
GETTING HERE
For me, it was simple. Quick flight from Calgary, short drive, and you are ready to relax. If you’re already in the Okanagan, it’s an easy drive.
And when you arrive… put on your robe and relax. Feel free to wear your robe around the spa and even to breakfast and lunch.
If you’ve been running hard or feeling off, this place has a way of bringing you back to centre.
SEVEN THINGS I LOVED ABOUT SPARKLING HILL
The Bathtub With a View
This was easily one of my favourite parts.
Deep soaker tub, floor-to-ceiling windows, overlooking the lake and mountains all from the luxury of your room.

The Spa Experience (The Real Reason You Go)
It’s a full European style circuit — steam rooms, saunas, cold plunges, quiet spaces. The steam rooms open at 2PM and they even have European hour starting at 10PM! Check out the spa here.
Living in a Robe All Day
Be prepared to be relaxed and look relaxed. Feel free to roam around in your robe for breakfast and lunch.
This place is all about your reset. You have no one to impress.

The Massage
Take relaxtion to the necxt level with a massage or try another one of their therapeutic offerings.
The Infinity Pool
Step into the warm waters set above the valley and looking the Okanagan. You can access the pool and hot tub at 7am and spend the day soaking.
Easy to Get To, Hard to Leave
If you are out of province you can fly into Kelowna, take a short drive to Vernon and you’re there.
It’s one of the most accessible luxury spa resorts in BC.
But once you settle in, it feels far removed from everything.
Gerni’s Farmhouse
Enjoy Austrian-inspired menu in an original farm house that was dismantled and put back together all the way from Austria. The setting is historic as you dine and a great way to end a day of relaxing with a warm and hearty meal. Be warned the portions are huge and you will not leave hungry.
