The pool
Why this pool made the list
Arched windows and white columns line Kastel's indoor pool, with a painted mural running the length of one wall. The water is kept at about 30°C, there's a water jet and a whirlpool at the edge, and the pool is open all year. Children get two adventure pools of their own, with pool toys and a water slide.
Around it, the spa adds a Finnish sauna, a bio sauna, an aroma steam room and a rock grotto with a small saltwater pool, all free for guests and open through the day. It suits families best: after a winter day on the Alpe di Siusi slopes, this is warm water at 1,100 m that small children can enjoy as much as you do.

The stay
Beyond the pool
Kastel sits in Castelrotto at 1,100 m, about 100 m from the village centre, with the Sciliar rising beyond the garden terrace. Its 33 Alpine-style apartments each have a fully equipped kitchen, a seating and dining area and a balcony or garden; some look out to the mountains. Instead of a buffet, breakfast comes as a basket of fresh bakery rolls, butter, jams, cheese and spreads that you eat in the apartment, on the terrace or at the bar.
In winter a free ski bus stops nearby for the Alpe di Siusi slopes, and the ski room has boot heaters. Summer brings weekly hikes and barbecues. Children have a playroom with a climbing wall, table football and table tennis, plus a garden playground with a small ski lift. Parking is free in the underground garage, with EV charging.
Worth knowing: children from 3 count as adults on the booking, check-out is by 10:00, and if you need a cot or an extra bed, confirm it with the property before you book.

Is it a good choice with young children?

Is the spa included in the stay?
Yes: the pool, saunas and steam room are free for guests.
At 1,600 m on the Monte Pana plateau, the indoor pool is heated and open all year, with the Sassolungo filling a wall of windows: in winter you swim with snow on the other side of the glass. It's free for guests and open daily from 07:00 to 20:00, and a separate indoor children's pool next to it has toys and room to splash. Both take all ages.
The outdoor pool sits on the spa terrace above San Candido, heated to 31°C and open all year, with the jagged Baranci group rising directly behind it. In winter the water steams against the snow and the village lies below you; in summer the deck around it fills with loungers. Inside the spa there's an indoor pool as well, for a swim whatever the weather is doing.
Twelve metres above the meadow, the Sky Pool at Hotel Hubertus juts out from the hillside like a wing: a 25-metre infinity pool with a glass front onto the Pusteria valley and a window set into its floor, so you can look straight down at the grass below. It's heated to 33°C all year round and open from 7:00 to 19:30, and on a cold morning the steam lifts off the water against the Dolomites.
