Choose the Kimpton if your group includes kids or you want a heated pool. A $50 ResortPass day pass covers both the 8th-floor rooftop pool and a heated courtyard pool.

The pool

The outdoor, heated pool is on the 8th floor, with Intracoastal Waterway views. Escape Rooftop Bar sits at the top and serves cocktails and light bites. A second heated pool sits in the courtyard. Weekend afternoons bring a DJ, which suits some swimmers and not others.

Our take

The Kimpton beats the Omni if you want heat and a second pool, and it costs less: $50 against $60. It matches the Hyatt Centric's 8th floor but charges $50 to the Hyatt's $20.

The downside is noise. Live DJs play the rooftop bar on Fridays and Saturdays, 3 pm to 7 pm. Go on a weekday if you want a calmer deck. The hotel doesn't publish age rules for the rooftop pool.

Good to know

  • Heated 8th-floor rooftop pool
  • Day pass reaches both pools
  • Courtyard heated pool suits families year-round
  • Private cabana rentals at the pools

The catches

  • Day pass is $50, against $20 at the cheapest
  • Friday and Saturday DJs run 3 pm to 7 pm

Best forFamilies and groups wanting heated water on the roof and a second pool downstairs.

Skip it ifYou want a quiet weekend deck or the cheapest pass.

Tips

  • Visit Monday to Thursday if you want the rooftop without the weekend DJ sets.
  • Use the courtyard pool when you bring children, since it is described as suited to families.

Before you go. Ask about the rooftop age rule and cabana pricing, since neither is published.
