Sucker for an infinity pool on vacation? We’ve found the best ones nestled across the hills of NSW.
When it comes to escaping the hustle and bustle, we often turn to our NSW backyard for a relaxing getaway. From cute eco-friendly Airbnb’s to luxury accommodations with restaurants on-site, there’s an array of beautiful stays across the state. We can all agree that it’s hard to pass up an infinity pool with a view. You may have to drop a couple more 000s, but that’s overlooked when you’re dipping in and out of a sparkling pool, peering out onto rolling greenfields and feeling like you’re on the edge of the world.
This summer, nothing is stopping us from packing our bags and booking a boujee accommodation with an infinity pool. After hours of research and a growing wanderlust for our next getaway, here is our carefully curated guide to the most beautiful infinity pools you can book on your next NSW vacay.
