Venetian Pool Historic Hideaway in Coral Gables, Florida | Travel and Leisure
Join me for a relaxing swim as I slow down, soak in, and relax in the Venetian Pool historic hideaway with soothing waterfalls, hidden grotto, and Instagram worthy bridges.
What makes this pool so special? It is made entirely from coral rock, (marine limestone), and it is filled with natural spring water from a nearby aquifer and is reportedly close to 80 degrees in this lush tropical hideaway. This is the largest freshwater pool in the United States.
Built in 1923 in the Mediterranean Revival style inspired by Spanish, Italian, and Venetian architecture. Located in the charming Miami suburb of Coral Gables, this architectural influence is found throughout the surrounding neighborhoods.
The children’s play area is only 2 feet deep, with more areas for 3-4 foot depth. The deep end starts at 5 feet and gets as deep as 8 feet below the waterfall.
In decades past, the pool was drained completely for scheduled performances by the Miami Symphony, taking advantage of the quarry's natural acoustic qualities.
The small parking lot fills up quickly. If you are staying nearby, it may be possible to walk, or some hotels offer complementary bikes for riding around the town of Coral Gables. Lyft and Uber are also great options to reach the pool.
No food or drinks allowed near the pool, but there is a small food court and seating area for snacks and beverages.
The Venetian Pool is the perfect place to relax and refresh after enjoying the Miami nightlife.
