The Pool at Sofitel Montevideo Casino Carrasco & Spa

"The monumental early-20th-century building, long a major waterfront landmark in this well-heeled neighborhood, sports 116 rooms, including 23 distinctive suites, complemented by a casino, a spa with indoor and outdoor swimming pools, and Uruguay's most sumptuous breakfast spread"

"Downstairs, spa treatment rooms surround the grotto-like indoor swimming pool at SoSpa; on the other side of a glass wall the larger part of the pool extends outside, surrounded in warmer weather by inviting chaise longues"

"A separate indoor pool is available for those who prefer to stay out of the hot sun"
