When to come

Mar — May

The obvious answer.

Mild temperatures, pools open by mid-April. Hotels are full but day-guest spots open up.

Jun — Aug

Hot. Pools and shade.

Peak summer. Beach clubs and air-conditioned spas are at their best.

Sep — Nov

The editor's pick.

Late-season pools, quieter venues, lower rates. Often the best photography light.

Dec — Feb

Cold. Spa weather.

Indoor spas, hammams, and saunas come into their own. Bring a robe.
