Whale suits families and anyone who dislikes heavy chlorine. The rooftop pool is saltwater and has a slide, and the hotel says children of all ages are welcome. Non-guest access isn't published.
The pool
The pool is on the rooftop of this 4-star hotel on Hua Hin 8 Alley. It is a saltwater pool that uses gentle salt levels instead of heavy chlorine, and it has a slide. The hotel mentions a view but gives no detail, and doesn't publish the floor.
Our take
Whale is the only pool on our list with a slide, which makes it the better pick for kids over Baan Nilrath. The saltwater system is also stated by the hotel, which Holiday Inn Vana Nava doesn't match for water treatment.
The catch is how little else is published. There's no floor, no hours and no word on day access, and the "children of all ages" line is a hotel-wide policy, not a pool rule. A rooftop bar page exists on the hotel site, so ask whether pool and bar hours overlap.

Getting in
Whale lists no day pass and gives no access rules for the rooftop pool. Book a room if you want to be sure of a swim, and confirm with the hotel if you hope to visit.
The hotel's FAQ says children of all ages are welcome. That is a hotel-wide policy and not specific to the pool.
Tips
- Ask the hotel whether the slide has height or age limits before bringing small children.
Before you go. Ask the hotel for the pool's opening hours and whether non-guests can swim, since neither is published.
