<\/a><\/p>\n Monday newsletters always feature\u00a0top 10 travel lists<\/a>\u00a0to inspire.<\/p>\n Swimming pools are the heart of every luxury hotel, and some are so spectacular that they have made it into my top 10 list of the\u00a0most beautiful hotel pools in the world<\/a>. However, if you really want to dive into decadence, then staying in a hotel room with its own private plunge pool is a must. It\u2019s a trend among newly built ultra-luxury resorts to impress guests with lavish rooms and palatial villas that feature their own private plunge pools. Indeed, nothing beats watching the sunset over cocktails on your private pool terrace, even if you only go swimming occasionally. So, I’ve splashed my way around the globe to present you my selection\u00a0of the top 10 world\u2019s best all-pool-villa resorts.<\/p>\n There is more information below the slideshow. Think I\u00a0missed one? Share your favorite hotel with private plunge pools\u00a0in the comments section<\/strong>, or take my\u00a0poll<\/strong> below!<\/p>\n This slideshow requires JavaScript.<\/p> *** Follow me on\u00a0Twitter<\/a>,\u00a0Instagram<\/a>\u00a0and Facebook<\/a>\u00a0for a daily moment of travel inspiration ***<\/em><\/p>\n Koh Samui, Thailand’s\u00a0paradise island famous for its inviting sapphire waters and white beaches, offers a destination resort that combines pampering with tranquillity: Banyan Tree Samui. Overlooking scenic Lamai Bay, the resort is nestled in a series of cascading terraces on a private hill cove in the south-eastern coast of Koh Samui. With a pristine, rock-framed, private\u00a0beach and 78 phenomenal villas, lazy days can be spent in utopian luxury. Each villa has white walls that are punctuated with sliding glass doors opening to a large private pool and glass-railed patio, some with stunning views of the shimmering turquoise Gulf of Thailand.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Surrounded by emerald jungle, Rosewood Mayakoba is a Riviera Maya resort that defines a private world of rare luxury and refined beauty. Inspired by Mayan traditions, this 1600-acre resort enclave sits along a long stretch of white Caribbean sand, nestled just north of the picturesque waterfront town of Playa del Carmen. Designed to blend harmony with natural landscapes, Rosewood Mayakoba is an oasis of luxury offering 128 suites with private plunge pools, rooftop sundecks, garden showers, individual docks and the finest modern design and details.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n A gorgeous bay on the Bodrum Peninsula is home to Amanruya, a tranquil and \u00fcber-luxurious resort that is run by Aman, widely acclaimed one of the world’s most exclusive ultra-luxury hotel brands<\/a>. Named after the Sanskrit word for peace, \u2018aman\u2019, and the Turkish word for dream, Amanruya is set on a peaceful hillside, offering breathtaking views of the sea and a winding pathway leading to a sheltered pebble beach. The\u00a0resort offers 36 spacious and elegant pool terrace cottages, each with a private garden and grey-green marble\u00a0pool. Designed to welcome and soothe, the cottages are gracious homes away from home and a cool air of sophisticated calm prevails.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Al Maha Desert Resort & Spa, part of\u00a0The Luxury Collection<\/a>\u00a0by Starwood Hotels, is nestled in an\u00a0award-winning conservation area where desert wildlife abounds, deep within Dubai\u2019s magical dune landscape.\u00a0The resort\u00a0showcases the heritage and architecture of the Bedouins, while also offering a sense of desert adventure, with matchless hospitality\u00a0in unparalleled comfort.\u00a0The Bedouin\u00a0tent-style suites are all lavishly decorated with authentic and handcrafted Arabian furnishings, antiques and artefacts.\u00a0Bulgari bath products are present in the bathroom. Each suite comes with its own private chilled pool and offers spectacular views of the Arabian Desert as vast and far as the eye can see.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Carved into a hillside on the remote Indian Ocean island of Mah\u00e9, Four Seasons Resort Seychelles seeks not to impose itself on the landscape so much as bend to its will. In an island nation blessed with the best beaches in the world<\/a>, it should come as not surprise that the Four Seasons resort is located along a gorgeous stretch of white sand.\u00a0You can experience solitude and serenity in one of the 67 luxury resort villas, perched on stilts on the jungle hillside or nestled amid greenery close to the beach. All villas have large infinity-edge plunge pools surrounded by a natural hardwood deck.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Individual bridges leading to exceptional suites and rugged stoned-faced columns reaching towards the sky make Jade Mountain one of the Caribbean\u2019s most mesmerizing resort experiences.\u00a0With the fourth wall entirely absent, Jade Mountain\u2019s 29 suites (called ‘sanctuaries’) are stage-like settings from which to embrace the full glory of\u00a0\u00a0St Lucia\u2019s twin peaks, the Pitons World Heritage Site, and of course, the eternal Caribbean Sea.\u00a0All sanctuaries (with the exception of the 5 Sky suites) come with private in-room infinity pools that stretch out to maximize the stunning views while you\u2019re swimming.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Alila Villas Uluwatu is located\u00a0in the dry savannah landscape of the Bukit Peninsular in the South of Bali. Poised on an elevated plateau that meets with limestone cliffs sweeping down the Indian Ocean, the view from the hotel is nothing less than breathtaking. Blending in with these spectacular surroundings, the architecture\u00a0of the hotel combines the delights of traditional Balinese pavilion architecture and rural landscapes with modern dynamic treatment of space and form.\u00a0The 65 spectacular yet serene, open-plan rooms with minimalistic interiors\u00a0are designed to impart comfort and space; they all come with a private pool and relaxation pavilion.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n True to Six Senses\u2019 philosophy of selecting remote yet accessible destinations in areas of outstanding natural beauty, Con Dao \u2013 a 40 min flight south of Ho Chi Min City \u2013 is a breathtaking location, which has been protected for decades as a national and marine park. The resort is contemporary in design and reflects the essence of a traditional fishing village.\u00a0All 50 villas rest along a mile of sandy beach, sheltered by hills behind and offering expansive vistas of the sea. They all feature\u00a0a large infinity pool and all building materials are from natural, sustainable sources, and local where possible.<\/p>\nToday (April 9, 2018):\u00a0Top 10 world’s best resorts with private plunge pools.<\/strong><\/h5>\n
