Australia can get pretty toasty, so it's always great when you can cool off in the water at the end of a long hot day. We've rounded up our properties with awesome pools to entice you in for a swim.
YHA Brisbane City
Enjoy stunning rooftop views over Brisbane City as you go for your morning splash at this enviably located property.

The centrepiece of this colourful, vibrant travellers' mecca is its gorgeous pool. Take a dip, or take it easy and soak up some rays.
YHA Cape Byron
There's no better way to enjoy this incredibly laid-back, subtropical oasis of a property than with a swim in its very own pool.

Unlike many of the nearby waterways, YHA Darwin's pool is 100% free from crocodiles (not including the inflatable kind, of course!).

Stunning pools you won't believe are at YHAs
We don’t know about you, but when we’re booking accommodation for an Aussie summer, we’re usually asking ourselves one question: does it have a pool? Air conditioning is great and all, but splashing around is just so much more fun!
