With Tampa Bay bringing the heat year-round, we’re always looking for a great spot that allows for a romantic date night and lets you cool off as well. Most people don’t realize this, but many popular hotels allow access to their pool via a day pass or even simply purchasing cocktails or a meal. Take a look at our favorite Tampa spots that allow you to relax – or party – poolside.
