Hong Kong Pools – The Best Places to Make a Splash
Hong Kong is well known for its shopping and dim sum, but did you know there are also stunning pools in this vibrant city? From hotel rooftop pools with breathtaking views of Victoria Harbour to natural infinity pools on mountain sides, here are the best places in Hong Kong where visitors can make a splash and take a dip!
The Intercontinental Grand Stanford hotel in Whampoa Garden features one of Hong Kong’s most breathtaking swimming pools – three infinity pools that appear as though they’re floating right through Victoria Harbor itself, featuring loungers for comfortable lounging or an inviting whirlpool for relaxing after taking in all its wonder. Plus, its tea deck dining area is nearby should you need any refreshments!
Take your luxury experience up a notch at Harbour Grand Kowloon’s unique rooftop pool on the 21st floor for an extra luxurious experience! This glass-walled pool sits amidst its breezy rooftop, complete with bar, whirlpool and comfortable chaise lounges – the perfect spot to unwind after exploring Hong Kong all day long! Plus, guests staying at the hotel and HP Club members alike are invited to use this amenity from early morning until late night!
Ma On Shan Swimming Pool, commonly referred to as Kwai Shing, opened its doors in 1975 as another luxurious pool complex in Hong Kong. With spectator stands that can hold 1,200 people, training and teaching pools and several waterslides–two which have been described as Hong Kong’s fastest waterslides–this facility boasts some impressive swimming features!
These stunning pools provide breathtaking views while remaining affordable, making them the ideal place for impressing out-of-town friends and family members, or simply seeking luxurious relaxation from city life. Check out Hong Kong pools as your next escape destination.
These stunning pools may only be accessible to hotel guests or those willing to pay hundreds of dollars for a day pass (although it could well be worth the investment for their spa-quality massage!), however there are several public and outdoor pools in Hong Kong where swimming can still take place without breaking the bank.
Keep your Octupus card handy as you’ll need it for admission at public pools that require Octupus cards for entry. Have fun splashing!
