A dramatic open-air structure designed to resemble a shell, the Pool Bar sits beside Laucala’s 2.000-square-metre lagoon-style swimming pool, amid coconut palms and tropical flowers.
Fresh fruit juices, coconut milk and coconut water is made daily, bottled and served to guests lounging by the water, accompanied by cool scented towels and vitamin shooters.

in a twist of history, one of the newest additions to the Paris hotel landscape is a once-glamorous and once-defunct 85-year-old swimming pool. Built in 1929, the Piscine Molitor was long en vogue with the city’s fashionable set, its indoor and outdoor decks regularly lined with bathing beauties. Despite its sparkling past, during the 1980s, the pool fell into decline, ultimately shutting its doors in 1989.
