Siam Kempinski Hotel Bangkok, Thailand
Open the French windows to your cabana room and jump into the pool in no more than five steps from the door. Not only do you get direct access, it is connected to the fieldyard. Sit on a comfortable lounge chair on your terrace where you can relax in peace and enjoy a complimentary juice from the mini bar.

Located on the pool level, the modernly-designed Quay Room that is both functional and comfortable has direct pool access to the stunning 25-metre outdoor pool. It features a private patio with deck chairs and table and it is the perfect room choice for honeymooners or travellers who love the convenience of having a relaxing dip in the pool just steps away from the room.

Mai Samui Beach Resort & Spa, Thailand
Relaxing Mai Samui Beach Resort & Spa rests on the sparkling white powder of Laem Yai Beach with inviting turquoise waters just a few sandy steps away. The resort may be positioned in a tranquil spot on the West coast, but the location of the resort also makes an excellent base for exploring the rest of Koh Samui’s treasures. Not only that, book a deluxe room and your feet will swiftly touch the water in the pool.

Get ready to jump into the tempting pool, in no more than five steps.

If you are not keen on the idea of taking the lift down (or up) in your swimsuit, or being wrapped up only in a towel while making your way to (or from) the pool, you will love the indigenous idea of a room with direct pool access.

That’s right, simply take a few steps, literally, from the bed and jump right into the water. And there is no need for a private jet to reach the Maldives because these hotels right in Asia will do, at least for now. So from Kuta Beach’s Four Points to Boracay’s Resort, we’ve got your pool vacation planned!
