At 50,000 square feet, the Terranea spa and fitness center has extensive facilities as well as a dedicated spa pool, cafe and store. The spa itself has 25 treatment rooms overlooking the pool area or the cliffside ocean setting. Access to the spa area is restricted to over 18’s who either are using the spa or have purchased a day pass. The spa pool is large and located on the ocean’s edge. Loungers, sofas and fire pits surround the pool, including a handful that overlook the ocean. You are never parched or hungry thanks to the attentive waiter service from the adjoining spa cafe.

Hotel Spa Pool in a Garden Setting
Sofitel Singapore Sentosa Resort & Spa in Singapore
“The Sofitel Singapore Sentosa Resort & Spa is one of the best spas in Singapore, featuring 14 indoor treatment rooms and six outdoor treatment pavilions. The real draw are the tropical landscaped gardens with waterfalls, mud baths, swimming pools and secluded chill-out areas. The swimming pool in the women-only section of the outdoor spa area is gorgeous. Featuring a flowing waterfall and mud bath in a tranquil and private enclosed area, this pool is the perfect place to chill out after a massage.”

Hotel Spa Pools in a Hydrotherapy Garden
Laniwai Spa at Disney Aulani Resort & Spa in Oahu, Hawaii
“While the kids will be thrilled by Aulani's incredible swimming pools, lazy river and waterslides, parents craving some downtime escape to Laniwai‘s hotel spa pools. So much more than just one pool, the 5,000-square-foot Kula Wai outdoor hydrotherapy garden features private vitality pools, co-ed mineral baths, a reflexology path, six rain-style showers, and whirlpool jet spas. You could (and should!) stay here all day while the kids play at Aunty's Beach kids club. You can even dine poolside, choosing from a menu of healthy foods and beverages.”

Hotel Spa Pool with a Gorgeous View
Mii Amo at Enchantment Resort in Sedona, Arizona
Mii Amo at Enchantment Resort in Sedona, Arizona is so incredible, you may never want to leave. My husband wanted to make the two-hour drive from the resort to the Grand Canyon. As a serious spa lover, though, there was no way I was leaving the Mii Amo spa once I had discovered it. You can spend the night at Mii Amo for an immersive spa experience, or stay at the family-friendly Enchantment Resort, which offers full spa access privileges for guests over age 16. Enjoy a host of spa treatments, plus a cafe and a fitness center. And then there are their incredible indoor and outdoor spa pools. The outdoor pool setting will induce serious zen with its gorgeous view of the red rocks of Sedona.

Hotel Spa Pool for an Adult Break
Grand Lakes in Orlando, Florida
“The Grande Lakes property in Orlando has both a Ritz Carlton and a JW Marriott that share a spa, spa café, and pool in between the two. Guests whisper to maintain the serene vibe and exclusive adult hideaway in America's family travel capital. It's super popular with locals for staycations, and is a great way to sneak a few hours from the kids while they are at the Ritz Kids club.”
