Pick 3HB for an infinity pool on the roof in Faro itself, backed by a heated indoor pool for cooler days. The hotel publishes neither its floor nor any non-guest access rules.
The pool
This 5-star hotel on R. Vasco da Gama has an outdoor infinity pool on the rooftop, looking over the city and the Ria Formosa. H.Bar serves cocktails and snacks up there. The floor number isn't published.
Our take
No other hotel on our list pairs a rooftop pool with a separate heated indoor pool. That matters here: average highs fall to 16.3°C in January, and the best swimming runs June to August. The indoor pool has water jet massages, and the wellness area adds a sauna and Turkish bath.
Access is the weak spot. No day pass or non-guest rule is published, and there is no rooftop heating or hours either. Treat this as a stay-to-swim pick until the hotel tells you otherwise.
Good to know
- Rooftop infinity pool with city and Ria Formosa views
- Separate heated indoor pool in the wellness area
- H.Bar on the roof, with a snack menu
- Sauna and Turkish bath on site
The catches
- Floor and rooftop pool hours aren't published
- Parking is 15€/day, 120m away, subject to availability
Best forTravelers after an infinity pool plus a sauna and Turkish bath in the same hotel.
Skip it ifYour plans depend on a confirmed day pass or set pool hours.
Getting in
Non-guest access is unclear: no day pass, bar-access rule or age limit is stated.
Hotel guests are the safe assumption. If you want to visit without a room, ask the hotel before you travel.
Tips
- Book the covered public parking ahead if you drive: it is 15€/day, 120m from the hotel, and subject to reservation and availability.
- Visiting between November and February? Highs run 16.3°C to 19.6°C, so plan on the heated indoor pool.
Before you go. Ask the hotel about opening dates for the rooftop pool and whether non-guests can use it. Neither is published.
