11 Stunning Hotel Infinity Pools
by Darren DunneWhether they end in blue skies or turquoise waters, there’s something remarkably luxurious about infinity pools, namely they inspire wanderlust and have us planning our next trip. Taking some of Kiwi Collection’s most spectacular hotels as our cue, we’ve pulled together a list of 11 special hotel infinity pools to drive your (and our) next getaway.
11 Stunning Hotel Infinity Pools
Anantara Golden Triangle, Thailand
Infinity pools tend to boast quite the view, but how many of them let you gaze across three countries at once? At Antanara Golden Triangle, the infinity pool sits on a ridge overlooking the verdant foliage of the Mekong Valley. Here, it’s possible to watch the sun rise over Thailand, Burma and Laos simultaneously.
11 Stunning Hotel Infinity Pools
Belmond Hotel Caruso, Italy
At Belmond Hotel Caruso, the infinity pool is suspended above the clouds, gazing down on the charming town of Ravello. Relax in the gently heated waters while a concierge brings a pre-loaded iPod, fresh appetizer or Evian vaporizer. Pure, unadulterated indulgence.
11 Stunning Hotel Infinity Pools
Blue Palace, Greece
A name like Blue Palace conjures up some pretty vivid imagery, so it’s a good thing this waterfront beauty is perpetually surrounded by endless blue skies and soothing blue waters. The hotel’s dreamy infinity pool looks out over Elounda, rewarding visitors with a picture-postcard vantage point of the sunset.
11 Stunning Hotel Infinity Pools
Amid the tropical foliage and serene waters of the Caribbean, the three-tiered cascading infinity pool at Gansevoort Dominican Republic provides an adults-only playground. Here, Playa Imbert’s crescent-shaped beach can be admired up close.
11 Stunning Hotel Infinity Pools
Grand Hyatt Playa del Carmen, Mexico
There’s a lot to love about Grand Hyatt Playa del Carmen, after all, it’s steps from the shopping, party and gastronomic heart of its namesake resort town. However, the hotel’s infinity pool is a special proposition, affording guests a front row seat to a lengthy stretch of white sand beach and turquoise waters.
11 Stunning Hotel Infinity Pools
La Casa Que Canta, Mexico
La Casa Que Canta makes the most of Zihuatanejo’s sunny reputation with a feast of outdoor activities, but their freshwater infinity pool is a rare treat. The pool has submerged seating carved along the far wall, letting guests lean back over the horizon itself while drinking in the view over the Pacific Ocean.
11 Stunning Hotel Infinity Pools
Malliouhana, Anguilla
A dip in Malliouhana’s two-tier infinity pool places guests right in the heart of the resort’s social scene. An outdoor bar patio sits above the pool, fringed by colorful chaise lounges and several roomy cabanas. The view isn’t too shabby, either.
11 Stunning Hotel Infinity Pools
Vana Belle, Thailand
In the Classical Thai language, Vana Belle translates as “beautiful forest” and it’s an entirely appropriate name for this idyllic resort. Each of the 80 suites and villas feature their own private plunge pools, but at the front of this resort an even more rewarding experience can be found. Here, the crystal clear freshwater infinity pool overlooks the resort’s white sand beach and the picture-perfect Gulf of Siam.
11 Stunning Hotel Infinity Pools
Grace Bay Club, Turks & Caicos
The recent renovation at Grace Bay Club was capped with this stunning, glass-edge infinity pool, which forms the centerpiece of a rejuvenating resort. This adults-only pool grants views over the hotel’s beach frontage (of which there’s 1,100 feet), while private, canopied day beds are also available.
11 Stunning Hotel Infinity Pools
The Cambrian, Switzerland
We’ve dabbled exclusively in sun-kissed climes so far, but at The Cambrian there’s an infinity pool with a unique twist, it overlooks a majestic alpine mountainscape. This classic Swiss ski lodge has a rich history that harks back to the 19th century, but the infinity pool is utterly modern, offering a heated, relaxing vantage point.
11 Stunning Hotel Infinity Pools
Viceroy Bali Hotel, Indonesia
Bali’s awe-inspiring Valley of the Kings is the kind of place that invites one to sit thoughtfully and take it all in. Luckily, Viceroy Bali has just the place to do it. The hotel’s large infinity pool boasts a fountain and swim-up bar, as well as a prime perch to survey the majesty below.
