The Pool at JW Marriott Mumbai Juhu

"From the vast, airy atrium to the dreamy beachside pool, the Marriott demands that you stop, and exhale"

"Palatial five-star complex with five opulent restaurants, three pools (one of them filled with treated salt water), a top-notch spa and blocks of luxury rooms looking through landscaped grounds to the beach"

"Beyond the vast, spectacular lobby a giant glass wall overlooks an Olympic-size swimming pool and the sea—by night flaming torches highlight the garden of lotus ponds and sandstone statues—and a pair of staircases curve down to a garden-level café that serves one of the city's best brunches"

"There is a kids club, kids pool with a slide and plenty of Western food options at the restaurants"

"Who else would be so sumptuous with its marble, its glass, its soaking tubs overlooking the Arabian Sea, and the standout outdoor pool, languid and lagoon-like"

"Most rooms face the ocean and pool, but the remainder offer a less than exciting city view"
