Where the water melts into the horizon, these exceptional hotels invite you to immerse yourself in a world of sky and sea, lakes and mountains. Here's a selection of the finest hotels with infinity pools, where bathing reaches new heights of luxury.

Travelers agree that two things stand out after a hotel stay: breakfast and the pool. True blue jewels of luxury establishments, these pools compete in length and offer breathtaking views. Between suspended lagoons overlooking the sea, mirrors of water melting into the sky and perched pools, infinity pools are the stuff of dreams, transforming a simple dip into a timeless experience.

Les Roches Blanches, Cassis

Clinging to the limestone cliffs of the Route des Crêtes, from which the hotel takes its name, Les Roches Blanches has dominated the calanques of the Bay of Cassis since 1887. Although this legendary hotel has been renovated many times, its huge concrete infinity pool has remained unchanged. Covered in black mosaic, it reflects the nuances of the sea, blurring the boundary between sky and water, and seems to melt into the Mediterranean. Built right into the rock, this elegant 20-metre pool offers a breathtaking view of Cap Canaille and the ballet of boats leaving the port. Chic and glamorous, it's the perfect place to take a dip and bask in the sun for a moment of pure idleness overlooking one of the region's finest panoramas.
