At Don Carlos Marbella, a day by the water can mean many things. A quiet morning among the gardens, a few lengths in the swimming lanes, an afternoon at Nikki Beach, or an hour in the hydrotherapy circuit at the spa. Six pools, each with its own atmosphere and way of spending the day.
The only question is where the day begins.
The heart of summer at Don Carlos Marbella, and the place where much of the hotel's energy gathers. A space for swimming, relaxing in the sun and making the most of the day.
Open all year, this heated pool can be enjoyed in both summer and winter. Around it, sun loungers and Balinese beds invite you to reduce your plans to the essentials.
Positioned in front of the Kids Club, the children's pool is designed for younger guests to splash, play and explore in a safe, supervised setting.
Inside, La Burbuja features soft grip and non-slip textured surfaces for climbing, with a gentle slope on the opposite side for sliding.
A space for the whole family to enjoy together. The centrepiece is an iconic network of slides: a tangle of shared energy and laughter that works for every age.
An accessible walkway follows the natural slope of the garden, connecting the main entrance to the water play area.
Surrounded by gardens and set within the Residences area, this pool offers a quieter setting away from the crowd and close to nature.
A corner for those who want to take their time, whether with family or friends, between swims, sunshine and the simple pleasure of an afternoon well spent.
At Don Carlos Spa, the vitality pool is the starting point of a complete hydrotherapy circuit. Its jets and water beds, maintained at 32 to 34°C, combine with cold and warm plunge pools to stimulate circulation, ease the muscles and restore equilibrium.
Set within the 1,600 m² of Don Carlos Spa, the circuit continues through sauna, steam room, aroma cabin and sensory showers, finishing in the tepidarium: a space of warm surfaces designed to extend the feeling of calm and wellbeing.
The pool at Lucia is the heart of the Beach Club, a spot beside the sea where vintage Mediterranean style, palm trees and retro-inspired details create an atmosphere unlike any other. A place where guests of all ages find their space among laughter and long afternoons by the water.
The iconic pool at Nikki Beach Marbella captures the most vibrant spirit of the Costa del Sol: music, sunshine, great food and an exclusively adult atmosphere.
A poolside retreat beside the sea, with VIP beds, cocktails in hand and sunsets to the sound of the finest international DJs.
