Hotels with heated pools are accommodations that feature one or more pools whose water temperature is artificially regulated, allowing you to swim regardless of the external climate or time of year. This is one of the most valued amenities in destinations with variable temperatures.
At Meliá Hotels International, heated pools can be found in both holiday resorts and urban and wellness hotels, complementing the offer of spa, fitness, and relaxation areas.

- Regulated water temperature all year round, generally between 26°C and 30°C.
- Availability for swimming regardless of the external climate and season.
- Varied locations: outdoor, indoor, or spa-integrated heated pools.
- A common complement to wellness areas with jacuzzis, saunas, and water circuits.

Tips for choosing a hotel with a heated pool
Before booking, it is important to confirm that the heated pool will be operational during your stay dates, as some hotels only activate it during specific months. It is also advisable to distinguish between an outdoor heated pool and an indoor pool, as the experience differs.
Consider whether the heated pool is part of a larger wellness area with a spa, sauna, or jacuzzi, which multiplies the relaxation options available.
Practical recommendations:
- Confirm that the heated pool will be operational on your stay dates.
- Differentiate between outdoor and indoor heated pools: the experience and surroundings vary.
- Check if access is included in your stay or if it is part of the spa services.
- See if the hotel offers complementary services by the pool: sun loungers, towels, bar.
- If travelling with family, check that the heated area is suitable for children.
