But hey, it was for a good cause! \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Chiang Mai has all kinds of pools, from Olympic-sized ones and those with extra amenities like gyms or massages to spots where you can simply relax with a cocktail while watching the sunset. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">The best part? Most of them offer single-entry passes, so you can take a refreshing dip even during your vacation. Some are also incredibly affordable.

The price is incredibly cheap\u2014just 60 baht for adults and 30 baht for kids. If you have a big family, it\u2019s a great option for a fun day out without spending much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Towels aren\u2019t provided, so bring your own.

A one-time entry includes WiFi, a coconut, tea or coffee, lunch or dinner, pool access, and yoga classes (based on the schedule). Such a great deal!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That said, if you're only looking for a pool, this might not be the best place. But if you want to work in a relaxed setting and take a refreshing dip, it\u2019s perfect.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/viajerosactivos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/DSC_0280.jpg\" alt=\"Coco Kala Chiang Mai hammocks\" class=\"wp-image-2576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/viajerosactivos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/DSC_0280.jpg 640w, https:\/\/viajerosactivos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/DSC_0280-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"informacion-extra\">\u2714\ufe0f Practical Info:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/cocokala.co\/\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Facebook<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Size:<\/strong> About 12 m long, 1.5 m max depth<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Good for swimming?<\/strong>: Yes, but mainly for a quick dip (depends on crowd levels)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Amenities:<\/strong> Bar\/restaurant, loungers and hammocks, bathrooms, air purifier, WiFi, coconut, coffee or tea, one meal, and a yoga class<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Opening hours:<\/strong> 9:00 AM \u2013 10:00 PM<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Single-entry fee:<\/strong> 350 baht\/adult (August 2025 price)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"13-centre-of-the-universe-chiang-mai-swimming-pool-and-resort\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"11_Centre_of_the_Universe_Chiang_Mai\"><\/span>11 Center of the Universe Chiang Mai <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/viajerosactivos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/DSC_0307.jpg\" alt=\"Center of Universe Chiang Mai swimming pool\" class=\"wp-image-2582\" srcset=\"https:\/\/viajerosactivos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/DSC_0307.jpg 640w, https:\/\/viajerosactivos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/DSC_0307-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Centre of the Universe is a 15-minute drive from the northwest edge of Chiang Mai\u2019s Old Town and is one of the few pools that offers swimming lessons. The schedule is divided into time slots for swimming and recreational use, so you can train early in the morning or late in the afternoon and relax the rest of the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The swimming pool is saltwater, which I loved. Another great feature is the ramps and handrails, making it accessible for people with reduced mobility. There are also two kids' pools with different depths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I don\u2019t know if it ever gets crowded, but both times I visited, there weren\u2019t too many people. There were about 10 swimmers, but since the pool and outdoor area are large, it felt peaceful.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/viajerosactivos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/DSC_0306.jpg\" alt=\"Center of Universe Chiang Mai swimming pool\" class=\"wp-image-2580\" srcset=\"https:\/\/viajerosactivos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/DSC_0306.jpg 640w, https:\/\/viajerosactivos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/DSC_0306-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"informacion-extra\">\u2714\ufe0f Practical Info:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Size:<\/strong> 25 x 12 m, max depth 1.6 m<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Good for swimming?<\/strong>: Yes, from 7:00 to 10:00 AM and 4:30 to 6:45 PM<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Kid-friendly?:<\/strong> Yes, with two separate pools<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Amenities:<\/strong> Bar\/restaurant, sun loungers with umbrellas, changing rooms with bathrooms and showers, WiFi with three routers near the pool.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Extras<\/strong>: Lockers and towel rental for 30 baht<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Opening hours:<\/strong> 7:00 AM \u2013 7:00 PM<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Single-entry fee:<\/strong> 250 baht for a full day (price as of October 2024); swimming slots cost 100 baht per person per hour.
