Temperatures are rising and the heat is coming. There’s nothing better than have some fresh relaxing pool time.

Let’s start from Italy with two dream destinations for every foreign tourist (and not only) and then let’s go in the United States of America, Asia, and also Iceland, Africa and South America.

La Bagnaia, Siena

This is where we spent our babymoon a few weekends ago. An amazing place in the Tuscan hills just 20 km from Siena.

Marina Bay Sands, Singapore

The world’s largest infinity pool is located on the roof top of the Singapore Marina Bay Sands hotel and from here you’ll have an impressive view all over the city.
I saw it with my own eyes and I can tell you that it’s really amazing!
p.s .: only hotel guests can use the pool while visitors can see it from the bar and from the panoramic terrace.

Bab Al Shams, Dubai

This instead was the first stop of the surprise trip for our 5 wedding anniversary! An oasis in the desert from One thousand and one nights, just an hour from Dubai (and an hour and a half from Abu Dhabi).
Swimming in the pool overlooking the Arabian desert is priceless!

Iguazù, Brazil/Argentina

Iguazu Falls are located right between Brazil and Argentina and this is the only hotel inside the park on the Argentinean side.
We stayed here last year, when it still was a Sheraton hotel … today the prices are definitely higher.

The steam column you see in the picture is just the Iguazu Falls, think of the thrill of being able to see them directly from the pool between toucans and tropical forest animals!

Hilton Seychelles Labriz Resort&Spa

I know, in places with such an incredible sea the pool is just too much, but when it’s so beautiful it is impossible not to love it!

This was a special trip… think that in that belly there was already a surprise coming!

Blue Lagoon, Iceland

This is a very special pool because it is geothermal, this allows you to take very blue baths even in the most rigid Icelandic climate!

Probably one of Iceland’s most famous attractions, not to be missed! The water, between 37 and 39 degrees celsius, comes from the geothermal plant that warms the entire city of Reykjavik!

And now some photos from Instagram!

Amangiri, Canyon Point, Utah, USA

Amangiri is definitely on my bucket list! The perfect way to go there is visiting  the Lake Powell and the wonderful Antelope Canyon!

If you dream a pool full of the most amusing and instagrammable inflatables, then your place is Palm Springs!

One of my cult places, I swear to write a post and tell you all about our 45° weekend in the middle of the California desert between the ’50s architecture and swimming pools!
The cover photo was taken right there, last August!
