Swim in the World’s Best Hotel Pools

It’s not snowing everywhere (thank goodness), so pack your swimsuit and head to these extraordinary hotel and club pools. What to take with you? Goggles that allow you to see clearly while protecting your eyes from harsh pool chemicals. Frogglez Goggles for both adults and children feature a comfortable, wide-band neoprene strap system in multiple colors that prevent pulled hair, slippage and seepage. Plus, if you pull them off, they float.

  • Villa Honegg, Switzerland: Soak in an infinity pool overhanging the edge of an alpine lake and mountain resort on Bürgenstock Mountain.
  • Grand Hotel Tremezzo, Italy: A century-old hotel on the edge of Lake Como, this property’s floating pool set within the lake itself affords views of the Grigne Mountains.
  • Bondi Icebergs, Australia: At the southernmost end of Bondi Beach in Sydney, the Bondi Iceberg Baths offer several pools where waves wash in from the surrounding sea.
  • Hanging Gardens, Bali: Need some tropical therapy? At the Hanging Gardens of Bali near the village of Payangan, the famed Twin-Tiered Cascading Pool in its jungle setting earned it a spot on the list of 40 Most Unique Swimming Pools Around the World, compiled by Architecture and Design magazine.
  • Grace Santorini, Greece: At this swish property, the infinity pool provides breathtaking views across the Caldera. If you prefer, you don’t have to share your water with anyone — suites come with private plunge pools that also face the Caldera.

Amansara Review

It was more than a car journey; it was a transition between worlds. At our first hotel in Siem Reap, huge coaches constantly pulled up outside the lobby to deposit or receive international tour groups; we departed in very different style, in a 1965 black Mercedes limousine once owned by King Sihanouk. The mundanities of mass tourism were left behind. We progressed through the chaotic Cambodian streets in regal comfort and soon arrived at a solid gate.
