Pool at Grand Mirage Resort & Thalasso Bali
The pool experience is strong overall, with consistently positive praise for multiple pools, an infinity pool with ocean views, lazy river, and swim-up bar. Water temperature is noted as excellent, though one reviewer reported the infinity pool's cold water as a deterrent.
Highly consistent positive sentiment across the entire review period from May 2025 to July 2026, with no temporal decline detected. Recent reviews (June–July 2026) maintain the same enthusiastic tone as earlier reviews, indicating sustained pool quality. The temperature concern (cold infinity pool) appeared in late June 2026, suggesting this may be a seasonal or recent operational issue rather than a persistent historical problem.
What the reviews tell us
Multiple pools including a stunning infinity pool with ocean views are consistently praised as beautiful, lovely, and a resort highlight by diverse international reviewers.
Amenities such as lazy river, water slides, and swim-up bar enhance the overall pool experience, with particular appeal for families and relaxation-focused guests.
Water temperature is described as perfect across multiple pools in recent reviews, addressing a key comfort factor for swimmers.
The infinity pool experienced underutilization due to cold water in at least one recent visit, suggesting possible temperature management variability or seasonal fluctuations.
Uneven paving around pool areas is flagged as requiring maintenance work, a structural concern affecting the pool deck safety and aesthetics.
Grand Mirage Resort & Thalasso Bali's pool complex earns strong marks across nearly all reviewed dimensions. Reviewers consistently highlight the beauty and appeal of multiple pools, with the infinity pool earning particular acclaim for its stunning ocean views and serene atmosphere. The resort offers good variety and size—separate family and adult areas, a lazy river facility, water slides for children, and a swim-up bar—making it suitable for diverse guest needs. Water temperature receives specific praise in recent reviews, with one UK reviewer noting temperatures are "perfect all the time." The primary concern is a structural maintenance issue: one reviewer noted uneven paving around pool areas requiring attention. Additionally, while the infinity pool is described as the resort's most beautiful pool, at least one recent guest noted relatively sparse usage due to cold water conditions, suggesting potential temperature inconsistency or seasonal variation. Overall, the pool facilities represent a genuine highlight of the property, particularly for families and those seeking relaxation amenities.
Infinity Pool Temperature and Usage Divide
Two recent Australian reviews (mid-to-late June 2026) offer conflicting accounts of the infinity pool experience. One reviewer (claim 74625, June 30) praised it as "beautiful and calm with ocean views" and "highly recommended." However, another Australian reviewer (claim 78130, June 27) noted it was "the best pool aesthetically" but saw "few people using it as it is very cold water." This suggests either a genuine temperature management problem during the season when multiple reviews cluster, or differing tolerance for water temperature among guests. The beautiful-but-cold contradiction warrants clarification about current infinity pool temperature control, particularly during peak booking periods.
