W Melbourne's WET Sessions

It might sound wrong to hit up an indoor pool in summer, but this is Melbourne — who knows what the weather is going to be? To ensure you'll get a dip in no matter whether the rain is pouring down, the W Melbourne crew is coaxing swimmers to its luxe pool overlooking the city with its WET Sessions.

From 12pm each Sunday until March 3, partygoers can enjoy the poolside bar, panoramic views of the city's skyline and a fresh DJ taking over the decks each week. This space is usually only open to hotel guests, so it's your rare chance to paddle about one of the city's finest pools.

For $95 per person, you'll have access to the pool for three hours, get a cocktail on arrival and indulge in roaming snacks to keep you going throughout the afternoon — whether that's to keep you energised for swimming some laps or just to have a poolside dance, it's up to you.
