After enjoying a delicious breakfast, head over to Urban Float located in The Landing. Set yourself up for some self-care time and relax with a 60-minute float session in a private room with shower. Feel the stress melt away in a private pod as you drift into a state of complete relaxation before moving on with your day.

You control the lighting. You choose whether the pod is open or closed. You will not believe how good you feel. Amenities and hair dryers included. This is a fun thing to do by yourself, as a couple or with a group with each person enjoying their own pod
