Pro Tips

  1. 1.Check access policies in advance as this pool is primarily for hotel guests, though day passes may be available depending on occupancy.
  2. 2.Visit during weekday mornings for the quietest experience when most business travelers are in meetings.
  3. 3.Bring reef-safe sunscreen as the pool area gets significant sun exposure, especially during Australian summer (December to February).
  4. 4.Pack pool toys and floaties for younger children as the hotel shop has limited options at premium prices.
  5. 5.The pool can be windy at this height, so bring cover-ups and consider visiting on calmer days with small children.

Best Time to Visit
