Choose Bacab if privacy is the point. The pool is a wide one on the private rooftop of a duplex suite in La Veleta, with open sky and no one in sight. Outsiders shouldn't count on it.
The pool
The pool sits on the private rooftop of a duplex suite in La Veleta. The hotel describes it as wide, with open sky views and no one in sight. The floor isn't published.
Our take
Bacab is a different kind of rooftop from Layla or Aluna. Those pools serve a hotel, and two of them sell day passes. This one belongs to a suite, so you're booking a room to get the water.
Access is the downside. Rules for non-guests and any day-pass sale go unpublished. A new pool club is planned but not yet open, so for now staying is the only route we can point to. Some ground-level rooms also open onto a private garden with their own pool, which is a separate option.
Good to know
- Wide pool on a private suite rooftop
- Open sky with no one in sight
- Quiet La Veleta location
The catches
- Access rules for non-guests aren't published
- Pool club planned but not yet open
Best forA couple or a small party that wants the pool to itself under open sky.
Skip it ifYou only want a few hours of swimming without booking a room.
Getting in
Staying in the duplex suite is the route in, since the pool belongs to its private rooftop. Whether non-guests can swim goes unpublished, and no day pass is listed.
A new pool club is planned but not yet open.
Tips
- Book the duplex suite by name if the rooftop pool is the reason you're going.
- Ask the hotel directly about the planned pool club before you assume you can visit.
Before you go. Confirm which room has the rooftop pool before you book, because other ground-level rooms have their own garden pool instead.
