Let’s be honest – who among us doesn’t deserve a relaxing time in the pool on the roof of a luxury hotel? Someone will say that this is worth living for, but we will tell you that this is not the ultimate dream. There are much cooler structures for enjoying life that you didn’t even know existed. We’ll tell you about some of them, and the question of choosing a hotel for your next vacation will be decided by itself!
Four Seasons Shanghai Pudong, China
No pool in the world will make you feel like you are in a movie about the future, except this miracle from Shanghai. And no fighting with robots, just being in seventh heaven in the jacuzzi and on the same level as the skyscrapers behind the panoramic windows.
Delamore Lodge, New Zealand
Technically, this is far from a hotel rooftop pool, and New Zealand is oh so far from the palm trees and turquoise waters of Bali. But a heated landscape pond “built” into a rock on a lonely island gives that unique feeling of being in a tropical paradise.
Los Suenos Marriott Ocean & Golf Resort, Costa Rica
This pool is nestled neatly between the ocean and a real rainforest. Therefore, no matter which direction you decide to look while in it, the view will not disappoint you. By the way, the area around this hotel is home to real sloths (not the ones that sip a cocktail on a mattress all day long, but mammals from the tropics),
and can be seen periodically on the nearby golf course.
The Cambrian, Switzerland
Staying at this hotel is a great way to surprise airport staff during baggage screening. When going to the city of Adelboden, where this pool is located, you can take both skis and a swimsuit with you. The reservoir is located literally in the mountains. The view from it and the mountains reflected in the water simply cannot be compared with anything!
Hotel Indigo Lower East Side, USA
Let’s start with where this pool is inferior to its colleagues – size. But here is its indisputable advantage: from the height of the 15th floor, the Big Apple appears in full view, and the Empire State Building looms in sight.
Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc, France
In the hotel industry, the epithet “iconic” has long lost its value. But if you want to know its original meaning, go to the south of France. Here you will find this symbol of European luxury with an impressive history and unparalleled views of the lagoon.
Andaz West Hollywood, USA
To understand the magnificence of hotel rooftop pools, you need to go to California. Here, crazy parties on the hills next to the ponds do not subside. And, if you’re feeling up to it, be sure to try looking arrogantly at the city of celebrities from behind the edge of this pool.
Four Seasons Punta Mita, Mexico
The luxurious pond in Punta Mita is a real multi-level amphitheater, where you will not be able to feel the boundary between the pool and the ocean, a fairy tale and reality.
