Activity

1. To infinity and beyond – Mallorca

Gaze out at the sparkling Mediterranean Sea from this adults-only infinity pool. After a refreshing swim, you can soak up the sun on Tramuntana Terrace, where – thanks to Jumeirah Port Soller Hotel & Spa’s clifftop location – the dramatic mountain views continue.

 

2. Your own private paradise – Maldives

Tucked away in the North Malé Atoll, our two-bedroom villa provides the perfect sanctuary for a romantic escape or a reunion with your loved ones. Wake up with a refreshing swim in your private infinity pool, overlooking the crystalline turquoise waters surrounding Jumeirah Maldives Olhahali Island.

 

 

3. Soak up some spa chic – Dubai

Swim with a view 150 metres above the Arabian Gulf and looking out over one of the world’s most impressive urban skylines. With its floor-to-ceiling windows, La Prairie face and body products, relaxing massage treatments and romantic Moonlight Swim package, the centrepiece at the Talise Spa in Burj Al Arab Jumeirah has to be its serene swimming pool.

 

4. Lose track of time on The Terrace – Dubai

Featuring a freshwater pool with a shaded swim-up bar and a saltwater infinity pool, The Terrace at Burj Al Arab Jumeirah is a water wonderland. Grab your goggles to gaze at the beautiful underwater tile mosaic before taking in the cityscape from a chic white sun lounger, luxury day bed or an air-conditioned cabana.

 

5. Plant-filled urban oasis – Dubai

With their crisp-white curtains and sun parasols, the cushion-strewn double day beds that surround Jumeirah Al Naseem’s three pools promise a secluded sanctuary. Step into the architect-designed gardens to discover towering palm trees, hanging chairs and peaceful walkways, before taking your pick of the property’s range of adult-only or kid-focused pools.

 

6. Walk on water – Abu Dhabi

Stroll across the sand dune that separates the resort from the sparkling ocean at Jumeirah at Saadiyat Island Resort, before taking a dip in one of three outdoor pools. With its swim-up bars and poolside restaurants, the focus here is on a gourmet island experience. Meanwhile, a wellness journey at the indulgent SPA treatment centre features a hydro pool, cold plunge pool and Moroccan bath and hammam.

 

7. Ottoman attraction – Dubai

Stained glass windows, colourful mosaics, tiled floors and star-shaped decorative flourishes at the Talise Ottoman Spa make for an attractive wellness destination. Inspired by a traditional Turkish hammam, the grand Jumeirah Zabeel Saray’s wellness centre features a saltwater Thalassotherapy swimming pool, snow room and saunas. Outside, a 59m infinity pool occupies a prime spot on the Palm Jumeirah.

 

8. City centre swimming – Nanjing

Head to the 63rd-floor of Jumeirah Nanjing for an infinity pool with city-centre wow factor. Situated in the modern Sky Atrium, which was designed by award-winning architect Zaha Hadid – it offers an unparalleled opportunity to swim while soaking up Yangtze River views.

 

9. Enter a tropical garden – Kuwait

Sitting at the heart of Jumeirah Messilah Beach Hotel & Spa, two swimming pools are set amid an enticing water garden complex. Keep out of the heat under the shade of a palm tree or the thatched roof of a cabana during the day and marvel as this stunning Kuwait City oasis is transformed into a twinkling enchanted garden when the lights come up each evening.

 

10. Palatial pools to plunge into – Dubai

Finally, is the wonderful infinity edge pool Celeste at the palatial Jumeirah Al Qasr. If the two kilometres of private beach weren’t enough then the elegant and oh-so Instagrammable new pool gazes out across the Gulf and the sandy shores.

 

From stunning clifftop retreats to tropical gardens, the swimming pools at Jumeirah's hotels and residences can be found in some of the most mesmerising locations.
