Top 5 / North America

When an amazing pool simply isn’t enough, enjoy one of these top five hotel pools that also boast spectacular views of the destination.

 

Hotel Fasano

This celebrity favorite hotel in Rio, Brazil, has a fantastic pool with views of not only the ocean, but also the iconic Ipanema Beach and the mountains beyond. Whether you’re splash-splashing around in the water or just taking up space on a striped lounge chair, you won’t be able to close your eyes for a second.

 

InterContinental Hong Kong

Don’t miss the pools (or even your own multiple private pools in a top-tier suite) when you stay at InterContinental Hong Kong. Choose from cold, warm and heated pools that provide views of the Hong Kong skyline, as well as Victoria Harbor.

 

Marina Bay Sands

This Singapore pool is well-known and for good reason. The infinity pool is purportedly the largest and highest in the world, at nearly 500 feet long and nearly 60 stories. The city of Singapore is simply laid out at your (floating) feet.

 

Grace Santorini

What about a Santorini pool that’s in a hotel literally carved into a cliffside? You’ll get views of the nearby island and the Aegean Sea from the largest infinity pool in Santorini.

 

W Amsterdam

The city’s first rooftop pool is something special. The W Amsterdam Wet Deck features not only a long rooftop pool with views of the canal houses and Royal Palace, but also a poolside bar. The pool is even heated, so you can enjoy it regardless
