Málaga rooftop pools open to non-guests! Get a day pass and enjoy skyline views, refreshing dips, and laid-back luxury.
Malaga gets hot, often in the mid-30s, during Summer. Now, you might not be staying somewhere with a pool, let alone a rooftop pool, but that doesn't mean you can't lounge poolside in style for a day or two while on holiday.
If you're looking to escape the heat while soaking next to a cocktail, then these hotels will let you do it without paying to stay there.
P.S. If your pool experience doesn't need to be on a rooftop, try Malaga's top pool day pass at Isla Pool Club.

Sunrise at Gibralfaro Castle
Watch the sun rise over Malaga from the highest point in the city. The views stretch from the bullring to the port and beyond.
