A POOL WITH A VIEWUCSF Mission Bay Rooftop Pool
With six lap lanes and brisk 78-degree water, this is definitely a swimmer's pool. But with a pool deck
(offering lounge chairs and gorgeous city views) and a climbing wall, you've got options. (We'll take the
former, thanks.)
FROM HERE TO INFINITYNob Hill Spa's Infinity Pool
Sure, the pool is inside, but the real draw here is the outdoor sundeck that catches rays like a magnet. And
when the sun goes down, there's a hot tub and fireplace inside, which should warm you up, uh, swimmingly.
MISSION: SWIMPOSSIBLEThe Mission Pool
Sheltered from the wind and offering downright balmy 82-degree water, this spot is a good option during the
fog days of summer. Plus, it's the city's only outdoor community pool, so you can be all "man of the people"
and still get a tan.
HAVE SUN? WILL TRAVELCabanas at The Four Seasons Silicon Valley
The South Bay is a guaranteed 20 degrees warmer than the city, making this pool feel like a mini-getaway.
Slather on the SPF, order up a cocktail and—when you need a bit more privacy—retire to a
poolside cabana, complete with flat screen and wifi.
WINE COUNTRY SOAKBathhouse at Sonoma Mission Inn
With four all-mineral pools, including one with underwater speakers, this spa and its Bathing
Ritual will get you feeling as mellow as if you just polished off a bottle of pinot. Which you'll get
to in good time.
