Experience the Ultimate Eco-Friendly Sky Pool at Listel Hamanako

Beginning June 20, the Listel Hamanako will unveil its rooftop sky pool, making it the first in the Hamana Lake area to open this summer. Nestled on the shores of Lake Hamana in Hamamatsu, Shizuoka Prefecture, this hotel, under the leadership of General Manager Yoshiyuki Sugiyama, is excited to welcome guests to enjoy this stunning addition earlier than last year.

Breathtaking Views and Comfort

The sky pool offers incredible views akin to being onboard a luxury cruise ship. Guests can unwind on rented reclining chairs, making their experience as relaxing as possible. The area will boast innovative mist fans powered by solar energy—installed in April—providing a cool breeze to alleviate the heat from the sun, creating a truly comfortable resort atmosphere.

The technology employed includes lightweight silicon panels that exceed the conventional load-bearing wall limits, showcasing the hotel's commitment to sustainability and eco-friendly practices. This new approach not only elevates guests’ experiences but also aligns with the vision of an environmentally conscious resort.

A Unique Access Experience

Exclusively available to guests, the sky pool is accessible from the moment they check in until they check out, ensuring that everyone can relish the outdoor paradise. A dedicated lifeguard will be present to ensure safety. The pool measures 20 meters in length, 6 meters in width, and has a depth of 1 meter, making it suitable for a range of recreational activities.

From the sky pool, guests are greeted with panoramic views of the natural beauty encompassing Lake Hamana. To the horizon, one can gaze upon the scenic Yoshida Onsen in the distance while enjoying the calming atmosphere of the resort.
