10 Hotels In Singapore With The Biggest Swimming Pools So You Don’t Have To Fight For Nua-ing Space

Biggest hotel swimming pools in Singapore


Everyone needs a little staycay at some point, with super soft hotel sheets to wake up in, fluffy pillows and lazy afternoons lounging by the hotel swimming pools – and you don’t want to feel as though you’re on a regular visit to a public swimming pool complex.

Here are the 10 hotels with the biggest swimming pools in Singapore where you can feel like royalty as you soak.


1. Capella Singapore – 3 levels of cascading pools with float rentals



Image credit: @capellasingapore 

Well-known for its feathered residents, Capella Singapore is one of the few pet-friendly hotels in Singapore. The resort-like hotel on Sentosa has not 1, but 3 cascading pools designed with Bali’s rice paddy fields as inspiration. And the pretty peacocks are a common sight, making the poolside photos here even more IG-worthy.

Open daily from as early as 7am till the golden hour, pool services include float rentals in the shapes of cute unicorns or water beds that can fit a couple. Make your way to one of the pools early in the day as these floats are available to use in the pools only from 11.30am-1.30pm.

If you want to find out how crowded the pools are before you pack your swimming bag and leave the comfort of your hotel room simply call the pool attendants using the 5318 phone extension for live updates.

In terms of accommodation, you can choose between rooms and suites facing their gardens or Sentosa beaches; villas with their own private pools and outdoor bathtub; and luxury manors that can fit an entire family.
