Make sure to red guard the areas that you enclose before you tile them. Do not try to keep them painted the whole interior should be as waterproof/vaporproof as possible.
The proper fan is a humidity sensing in line fan. It will keep the humidity level below 60%.
IMO all bathrooms should be required to have humidity sensing fans or have the fan tied to the light switch. The latter is code in some places as few people actually turn the fan on and it needs to run for a while after you get out of the shower.
