Phnom Penh is awash with hotels catering to tourists, and many come equipped with pools that are perfect to spend the afternoon cooling down in, or lounging around. Thankfully, the majority are open to outside guests for a small fee, or to those who splash out on food and drinks. Here are the 10 best swimming pools in Phnom Penh.
Perched atop the seventh floor of Patio Hotel is an infinity pool divine enough to waste away far too many hours. Offering stunning views out across the capital, the cozy contemporary setting boasts several sun loungers set into the pool, alcoves to chill in and a restaurant serving up a great menu of fusion food.

Another impressive Phnom Penh pool comes in the form of Aquarius’ glass-walled infinity rooftop pool. Shaped like an L and acting as a kind of human fish tank, the pool comes complete with a tropical garden and sky bar.

Also tucked off a quiet backstreet, Blue Lime is a tranquil haven with a peaceful pool. Sun loungers and giant beds skirt the pool, which is a pretty decent size. Food and drinks are served. However, sun worshippers may be disappointed because the pool area is mainly in the shade throughout the day.

For a more laidback vibe, 3Mangos is the place to be. Chilled, cheap and cheerful, the pool is open to outside guests and, though small, has a huge dose of character. Pool parties are often held, so it’s worth checking out their Facebook page for any updates.
