Málaga rooftop pools open to non-guests! Get a day pass and enjoy skyline views, refreshing dips, and laid-back luxury.
Málaga gets hot — often into the mid-30s in summer. If you're not staying somewhere with a pool, that doesn't mean you're stuck.
B-Heaven at Barceló Málaga lets you use their rooftop pool for the day without booking a room. It's the only hotel rooftop in the city currently offering a day pass to non-guests.
If you want a pool day that's not on a hotel rooftop, try Isla Pool Club — a purpose-built pool club 10 minutes from the city centre.

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.
