Swim in the lap of luxury at this ornate, junior Olympic-size pool outfitted with palm trees, decorative Spanish tiles and a Neptune fountain.

Gleaming glass panels surrounding this sun-kissed pool offer views of the resort’s rolling green grounds, and open up in warm weather to a sundeck.
There are three pools to choose from at this sprawling resort, but kids love the year-round indoor/outdoor pool separated by a glass partition that they can swim under. A bonus for night owls: the pool is open until midnight.
