8 DC Pools To Cool You Off This Summer

Memorial Day weekend is finally here and that means pool season! DC has several hidden pools and hotels that offer a limited day, or monthly, pass. Read below for 8 DC Pools to get you belly flopping this summer.




Penthouse Pool Club


Atop Vida Fitness: 1612 U St. NW | Website

Fri/Sat: 11am – 1am

Sun: 11am – 7pm


Penthouse Pool DC


Membership will cost you $159 a month for a access to the pool and gym. If that’s a little steep, your best bet is a social membership that will run you $15.00, and is good for four days. There is a catch though, they only sell a limited amount per month and the hours are limited.




Capitol Skyline Hotel – $20 fee


10 I St. SW | Website

Daily: 11a – 8p

Capital Skyline often throws some Vegas style pool parties. Think great music, day beds, cabanas and a bar, all while wearing your swimsuit.




Embassy Row – $20 fee


2015 Massachusetts (between) 20th and 21st | Website | 202-265-1600



For $20, you get luxury and the pampering without the hassle of the crowded public pools.




Washington Plaza Hotel – $50


10 Thomas Circle NW | Website | 202-842-1300

$50 is steep, but when it’s sweltering out, I may just cough it up for a nice relaxing day by the pool.




The Liaison Capitol Hill – $40


415 New Jersey Avenue, NW, Washington DC | Website | 202-638-1616


DC Pools


Seems like this place can throw a party (More Photos)! Keep checking back here for possible events!




Here are FREE (to DC residents) or small fee public pools.
