San Alfonso del Mar Resort

Endless pools that soak in all your tensions and help you relax; ever thought or fantasized this? Well, thanks to the San Alfonso Del Mar resort in Chile, you can live the moment in the World's biggest pool ever, where one lap means a whole 2 Km. The pool is so clean that the manufacturers claim that it uses up to 100 times less chemicals than a normal pool, and traditional filters have been replaced by a "pulse-based disinfection's method."
 

 

The most emblematic building work at San Alfonso holds the current Guinness record as the world’s largest crystalline water pool, with an extension of more than one kilometer in length, eight hectares and 250 million liters of water. Hard to imagine? We are talking about nothing less than the equivalent to 6,000 familiar 8-meters-long pools.

Apart from its large size, the lagoon has another spectacular feature: its waters have the transparency and intense turquoise color of tropical seas. This has been made possible thanks to an advanced technology developed by the company Crystal Lagoon, which is able to collect ocean water and keep it in perfect condition. But this is not all that it is there: during summer, the lagoon further maintains a pleasant temperature that borders 26ºC, nine degrees more than the nearby sea temperature. The success and exclusivity of this technology has enabled Crystal Lagoons to export its know-how to major international real-estate projects. In this way, at San Alfonso an unbelievable goal is achieved: feeling the enjoyment of the Caribbean Sea right at the Chilean central coast.

San Alfonso offers a variety of amusements for all ages and interests, especially during holiday seasons.

Kids can join the numerous activities organized by monitors and those who love sports can participate into different championships, spinning classes, aqua fitness, yoga and fun dancing, or simply enter one of the available schools to learn or improve their performance on different sport disciplines.

There are also activities to be enjoyed by all family members, like massive bike rides, amusing bingos, theatre plays, fashion shows and interesting art exhibitions.Nights are also full of life at San Alfonso. The SubAqua Café, the North Bay Pub and the Beach Club offer happy hours, karaoke sessions, music recitals and live shows and dancing dinners, while thematic parties are held at SubTerra Dicotheque to suit different ages: discokids, under-18 and over-18.
