RECOVERY, ELEVATED
Now Open at AquaVie
You already know what most people don’t: connected to The Westgate Hotel, AquaVie is one of San Diego’s finest fitness and wellness clubs. Now, this 40,000 square foot facility is home to a dedicated recovery experience worthy of everything else it offers — built for the members who push hard and know that how you recover is just as important as how you train.
RECOVERY LOUNGE
Infrared Sauna
Step into a session designed for deep relaxation and cellular recovery. Infrared heat works from the inside out, helping muscles unwind, circulation improve, and the body genuinely reset. Most members find a 15 to 20 minute sauna session to be the ideal starting point.
Cold Plunge
Contrast therapy at its most invigorating. Cold immersion supports circulation, reduces inflammation, and delivers the kind of full-body reset that keeps you coming back for more. Beginners typically start with 30 seconds to one minute; experienced guests often push to three to six minutes.
Recovery Area
The recovery lounge experience doesn't end when you step out of the sauna or cold plunge. A dedicated rooftop cabana space gives you a place to rest, rehydrate, and let your body fully absorb the work you've just done. Consider it the essential final element of your session.
Recovery Lounge sessions are included with your AquaVie membership and auto-renew monthly. Legacy Members receive four sessions per month. Existing members can add Recovery Lounge sessions to their account at the front desk. Additional sessions are available for purchase, and remaining sessions can be viewed in Club Automation. Sessions do not roll over and cannot be shared. Hotel guests, day pass, and guest pass holders are welcome to book individual sessions at $49 per session.
Reservations are required. Sessions are 60 minutes — to schedule, call (619) 557-3663 or text (224) 413-3030. Please check in at the front desk before entering the lounge.
Everything You Need to Perform at Your Best — Under One Roof
World-class fitness, luxury spa treatments, rooftop amenities, and now a dedicated recovery experience—all under one roof.

RECOVERY LAB
Fascial Scraping
Instrument-assisted technique designed to release tension held in the fascia, restore tissue mobility, and address the deeper layers that stretching alone can't reach.

Decompression therapy that works with your body to improve circulation, reduce muscular tightness, and encourage the kind of recovery your training demands.
