Fit for life at Antares Barcelona
Antares Barcelona has everything you need to stay healthy at home from its fabulous location to its fantastic fitness facilities
One of the joys in living in Barcelona is its outdoor lifestyle and the chance to be active year round. The legacy of the 1992 Olympics lives on and from swimming to sailing, running to cycling, there’s no excuse to sit around – unless you’re enjoying time on one of the city’s nine beaches.
Antares Barcelona has one of the best locations to make the most of Barcelona’s beachfront and boardwalk activities. It also offers residents a unique collection of in-house private health and fitness services, unrivalled by any other residential building in the city.
Located on the lower-ground floor of the 30-storey tower, Antares Barcelona’s spacious wellness centre covering 1,000 square metres is designed to provide quality facilities in a unique environment. Comprising a 17-metre pool, a fully-fitted gym, two treatment rooms, steam room and sauna, plus the outstanding signature yoga pod designed by Odile Decq. The entire space is calm and relaxing, with low lighting and curvaceous alder-wood walls that help create an organic and sensory experience.
Gym goers are well catered for with a full range of quality equipment designed by premium fitness supplier, Technogym. Whether you want to concentrate on cardio or strength training, there’s plenty of opportunity to build and maintain your core health. Unlike most gyms, the one at Antares Barcelona isn’t dark or functional but bright and vibrant. As a way of bringing the outside indoors, Odile Decq has designed the gym area to include large mirrors that bring in light and perspective from sky windows that illuminate green walls filled with lush tropical plants.
What better place to take your regular yoga class than the show stopping cocoon of Antares Barcelona’s yoga pod? The beautiful, light-filled space is perfectly designed to maximise the sensation of being removed from the distractions of the outside world and connecting with your inner self. The soothing environment carries into the treatment area, with its two therapy rooms and calming relaxation room furnished in natural materials. Treatments from qualified therapists can be arranged through the concierge service at Antares Barcelona, along with personal training and yoga or meditation instruction.
Finish off your workout with a swim in the 17-metre indoor pool, an elegant space with mirrored ceiling and natural stone walls. The swim machine will help improve your lap times, while overworked muscles can unwind in the hot tub or the steam room and sauna. For an alfresco swim, take the elevator to the huge, L-shaped rooftop infinity pool with its magnificent views over the coast and city. The perfect place for an invigorating dip.
If that’s not enough to get the heart pumping, the building’s outdoor paddle tennis courts are another bonus for fitness fiends. And there’s a golf simulator planned for the Red Pavilion, so you can limber up while you perfect your swing. Whatever your fitness level or goals, you’ll find Antares Barcelona keeps you right on track.
