Pool at The Sebali Resort

The Sebali Resort pool offers beautiful design and atmosphere but suffers from significant and unresolved water temperature inconsistencies that frustrate guests.

MixedStrong evidence·based on 8 reviews

Temperature complaints cluster in the warmer months (May–August 2026), with both hot and cold complaints appearing in the same period. Earlier 2025 reviews (June–November) offer only vague praise without operational concerns, suggesting either seasonal temperature management issues or a shift in the resort's maintenance practices during 2026.

Stunning pool aesthetic and atmosphere, with guests praising design and the ability to enjoy starlit views from poolside at night

Water temperature is problematic and inconsistent: heated pool reported as excessively hot with no guest temperature control, while other reviewers find the same pool too cold for comfortable use

Guests lack control over pool temperature settings, requiring staff intervention when water is uncomfortably hot

Pool design and overall ambiance earn consistent positive marks across multiple reviewers despite temperature issues

Heated pool reported as both excessively hot and too cold

Australian reviewer (396374, May 2026) reports the heated pool as 'way too hot' with no guest temperature control. Simultaneously, Hungarian reviewer (390715, August 2026) states the pool is 'too cold' even in sunny conditions, and French reviewer (392475, July 2026) notes it was 'a bit cold.' Another Australian reviewer (391349, August 2026) describes water as 'freezing' but frames it positively. This suggests either (1) wildly fluctuating temperature management, (2) multiple pool sections with different settings, or (3) different guest tolerance thresholds. The resort appears unable to maintain a consistently comfortable temperature, and lacks a mechanism for guest control or adjustment.

The heated pool was way too hot, I had to ask for it to be turned down, it would be better if guests had control of the temperature

The pool is too cold. We couldn't make use of it because it was too cold, even when it was sunny
