At Jumeirah Gulf of Bahrain – on the southern tip of the island, where the desert meets the sea – guests are welcomed by a pool-filled sanctuary and a stay is not merely a retreat, it is an aquatic reverie, thoughtfully designed for every generation and every mood, with each pool a chapter in a story told by the tides.

From the very moment you arrive, the story begins: the doors open to reveal a sweeping view of the open ocean, while a sculpted fountain sings at the heart of the lobby, echoing the rhythm of the pools that await beyond. It is a first impression that feels like an exhale

The Main Pool: Where Dreams Drift

Crowned Bahrain’s largest outdoor pool and lovingly referred to by returning guests as the island’s favourite, the resort’s main pool is more than just a body of water, it is a destination. This expansive oasis flows like a lazy river, complete with a cascading waterfall, winding slides, and laughter that lingers in the warm breeze. Cabanas fringe the perimeter, offering shade and serenity beneath palms, while the pool’s temperature-controlled embrace ensures year-round pleasure.

The Family Pool: Joy in Every Stroke

Tucked near the heart of the resort, this 20-metre haven beckons families with its tranquil waters and proximity to the children’s club. Here, days stretch gently beneath the sun as memories take form in cannonballs and shared smiles. Its intimate scale allows for watchful eyes and warm moments, where a child’s first swim or a father’s shared laugh become memories etched into the day’s blue canvas.

The Kids’ Pool: A Wonderland of Water

Nestled within the enchanted garden of the Kids Club cottage, the children’s pool is a storybook brought to life. Soft floors protect tiny feet, while little guests are lovingly cared for by our attentive team. Here, every splash is paired with painted palms, laughter-filled games, and the curious chatter of newfound friendships.

The Indoor Pools: A Symphony of Stillness

For those in search of stillness, Jumeirah’s indoor spaces offer a more introspective escape, one that invites quietude and self-restoration. Thoughtfully divided into separate sanctuaries for men and women, the wellness facilities cater to personal rhythms and refined rituals.

The female-exclusive 20-metre indoor pool is an oasis of calm, while the men’s side features both a hydro jet pool and a revitalising cold plunge. Saunas and steam rooms, designed with subtle luxury, offer a journey back to balance, each a haven for body and mind.

At the heart of it all lies Talise Spa, where tranquillity deepens. Here, time slows, and silence becomes a companion. For women, an exclusive sunbathing terrace offers the warmth of natural light with the privacy of seclusion a perfect space for quiet reflection and personal renewal.

Mar Y Más: Where the Ocean Meets Opulence

Available exclusively to adults on Fridays and Saturdays from noon until sunset, Mar Y Más is the resort’s pièce de résistance. An infinity pool that kisses the horizon, it offers a curated escape for those seeking spirited indulgence and barefoot elegance. Fire dancers mesmerise, DJs spin soulful beats, and live saxophones serenade the waves. For BD40 for gentlemen and BD35 for ladies, guests enjoy unlimited culinary delights and free-flowing refreshments.

The Day Pass: A Passage into Paradise

From Sunday to Wednesday, a serene escape awaits ladies with a ‘buy one get one’ offer with access to the pools, the beach, and the Kids Club for BD30 for two ladies. Weekends transform into vibrant affairs with the Day Pass for BD30, offering access to our 500-metre private shoreline, swimming pools, and lively family zones.

At Jumeirah Gulf of Bahrain, water is more than an amenity: It is an elemental experience. It nurtures, entertains, soothes, and surprises. It invites you to float through time, to play, to reflect, to reconnect.

Whether in the joyful shrieks of children, the meditative hush of an indoor sanctuary, or the velvet twilight of Mar Y Más, your journey here begins with a single drop and flows into a memory that lingers long after the tide recedes.
