Sky-High Swimming: Best Rooftop Pools in Singapore

Marina Bay Sands’ iconic pool may get all the buzz – but there are plenty more spots for sky-high swimming with our selection of the best rooftop pools in Singapore.

With its year-round tropical climate, impressive skyline and dense high-rise cityscape, Singapore is made for rooftop swimming. There’s no better way to drink in the views than from a sky-high pool, preferably with a cocktail in hand. Reach new heights with our pick of the best.

The Fullerton Bay Hotel

Claim front-row seats to one of Singapore’s most recognisable views from the pool at The Fullerton Bay Hotel, overlooking Marina Bay and the city’s iconic waterfront. Swim, lounge or sink into one of two bubbling Jacuzzis from dawn to dusk. Come evening, there’s no need to come down to ground level – continue the fun at Lantern rooftop bar, with live DJ sets, share-worthy bar plates and a strong cocktail list showcasing crafty variations of the Singapore Sling.

Find The Clan Hotel’s ‘secret’ entrance and allow the concierge to announce your arrival with the chime of a gong. Then, make your way straight to level 30, where the Sky Pool invites guests to float high above the city. Open from 6am until midnight, both early birds and night owls will find the perfect time for a dip.  

Our suggestion: take the plunge at sunset, when the changing colours of the sky ripple across the pool and over Singapore’s cityscape. Afterwards, take things down a notch on level four, where the Terrace serves cocktails with a view.

The Westin Singapore

Escape the buzz of the financial district way up high at The Westin Singapore, a polished sky-high retreat in the heart of the city. The infinity pool on level 35 offers an outlook to towering skyscrapers and the ocean beyond. 

Take a moment to relax on a sunken sunbed or dry off and curl up on a chaise lounge. When the rooftop gets busy, head downstairs to Heavenly Spa by Westin, where an indoor whirlpool offers a quieter alternative with equally impressive views.

JEN Singapore Orchardgateway by Shangri-La

JEN Singapore Orchardgateway delivers one of the most visually striking rooftop experiences outside of Marina Bay. Its 47-metre infinity-edged pool unfurls across the 19th floor, with built-in hydro jets and regular AquaSpin classes for those who like to mix skyline views with a workout. Around the deck, loungers are tucked into small pockets of greenery, creating just enough separation to pause and watch the city sparkle below.

Artyzen Singapore

Perched above the retail frenzy of Orchard Road, the rooftop pool at Artyzen Singapore comes complete with a partial glass bottom and underwater speakers that add an immersive edge to your daily swim. Hop between the inviting water, shaded sun loungers and leafy pool bar, then dry off and dive straight into the buzz below – from flagship boutiques and designer malls to hidden cafe stops just moments from the hotel entrance.

COMO Metropolitan Singapore 

Quiet luxury is the hallmark of the COMO brand, and the rooftop experience here follows suit. Rather than competing for skyline theatrics, the COMO’s rooftop pool offers a calm, uncluttered setting designed for relaxed laps. Come here to unwind after holistic pampering at the renowned COMO Shambhala Spa or indulge in poolside cocktails at any time of day from the Sky Bar.

Andaz Singapore

Flanked by the city skyline on one side and a fragrant herb garden on the other, the infinity pool at Andaz Singapore offers a calm contrast to the buzz below. Views stretch all the way to the Singapore Flyer observation wheel and Kallang River, and your afternoon swim is best rounded off with sundowners at Mr. Stork – a 360-degree rooftop bar dotted with cosy teepee huts and softly lit nooks that will make you want to linger.

Naumi Hotel Singapore

Named Best Boutique Hotel at the 2025 TTG Travel Awards, this design-led hotel makes a strong case for small hotels with big rooftop personality. Climb the “stairway to heaven” and make a splash in the neon-lit Cloud 9 Infinity Pool, reserved exclusively for hotel guests. Overlooking Raffles Place and the Civic District, the pool is compact but visually striking, with better odds of a solo swim than at some of the city’s more talked-about rooftops.

Hotel Indigo Singapore Katong, an IHG Hotel

The bright poolside lounges of Hotel Indigo’s rooftop beckon guests to slow down and enjoy the view. Gaze out across Singapore’s first heritage town, Joo Chiat, while taking leisurely laps high above it all. This is a different, quieter side to Singapore, packed with Peranakan influences, cosy cafes and family-run restaurants. If you do want to head into the city, it’s only a 15-minute cab ride away.

The Outpost Hotel Sentosa by Far East Hospitality

Welcome to Sentosa’s first and only rooftop day club, complete with sun-drenched pool parties that unfold across a sleek, adults-only playground. Set at the highest point of Sentosa, the hotel’s palm-fringed terrace offers an ideal vantage point for views of the strait and Sentosa’s nightly Wings of Time firework display – running daily at 7.40pm and 8.40pm.
