Five Swimming Pools to Cool Down in During Spain’s Second Summer
Summer may have come to an end but the temperatures aren’t going anywhere in the tourist hotspots of Ibiza and Marbella. In the heat, there's nothing quite like cooling off in a refreshing swimming pool, particularly when ocean views, signature cocktails and live music take the experience to the next level. For this reason, Palladium Hotel Group offers day passes to external visitors wanting to escape the heat and experience a day at its impressive pools across Ibiza and Marbella.
Infinite Luxury at BLESS Hotel Ibiza
The spectacular swimming pool at BLESS Hotel Ibiza’s Epic Infinity Lounge is a luxurious spot from which to take in awe-inspiring ocean views. Located in tranquil Cala Nova, this rooftop lounge seemingly blends into the water, and exudes style and luxury. To re-energise post-swim, visitors can order Asian and Latin American fusion cuisine from the comfort of the Balinese beds, and the signature cocktail menu will have them spoilt for choice.
Epic Infinity Lounge is open between 11am-7pm. To book a day bed, contact guestservice.ibiza@blesscollectionhotels.com
Feel the music at Hard Rock Hotel Marbella
Those visiting Puerto Banus in the September heat should head straight for the themed pool parties at Hard Rock Hotel Marbella’s Eden Pool. With different concepts ranging from 90s disco to Afrobeats to flamenco, and enhanced by themed decor and a sushi food truck, these musical events are surely the most entertaining way to cool down. Alternatively, those seeking a more peaceful day of self-care can check in to the newly opened Rock Spa for a cooling signature rhythmic massage.
