Exercise, eat well and socialise: How to enjoy the everyday

How to live life to the fullest at RACV Club

Monday: Join a social squash game

Kick the week off by stepping into one of 4 air-conditioned squash courts or watch a game from the viewing gallery. The RACV Club hosts social squash, competition matches and private lessons, with more than 60 members regularly meeting for events. There’s also a state-of-the-art fitness centre complete with a 6-lane, 25-metre indoor heated swimming pool and bookable personal trainers. After your workout, shake out any sore muscles in the steam room and sauna.

Tuesday: Spend your work hours in the coworking space

Break up your work week by bringing your laptop in to the Shared Workspace, an optional package for Club Members. This flexible coworking space is bright, modern and open plan. It sprawls over two levels, complete with an onsite café, hot desks, phone call booths, dedicated Wi-Fi, rentable lockers, printer access, and bookable meeting rooms. If you’re passionate about your career, share your knowledge with younger members or learn from some of the best in business through the 14-week Mentoring Program.

Wednesday: Eat at one of nine restaurants and cafes

You can travel the world with your palate by touring one of RACV Club’s many restaurants and cafes. The City Club’s signature restaurant is the Members Dining Room, headed by executive chef Jason Camillo. Enjoy succulent French, Italian and modern Australian flavours from an à la carte menu, plus an award-winning wine list that showcases the Club’s extensive wine cellars. For a pre-dinner drink, meet your guests in the adjacent Wine Bar to taste fine wines, rare whisky and spirits paired with small tasting plates.
