Incredible Celebrity Swimming Pools
When celebrities purchase extravagant mansions that the rest of us couldn’t even afford, one amenity in particular always intrigues fans more than the rest. We’re talking about the swimming pools, and not only how big they are, but how much incredible customization goes into them.
The majority of celebrity homes feature a grade-A swimming pool, but here we’ve compiled the absolute best so that we can live vicariously through our idols. We may never own a pool so extravagant, but it’s good to know how much they cost! Enjoy the 30 most lavish celeb pools.
Richard Branson
Sir Richard Branson owns his own private island in the British Virgin Islands, but just this swimming pool alone is amazing! It sits right up against the beach and even has a surrounding shallow pool if you just want to get your feet wet. When you’re finished swimming, you can climb right up onto the adjoining terrace for some refreshment.
Steve Martin
The famed comedian knows how to live it up in style in his St. Bart’s villa in the Caribbean. The deck of the two-tiered swimming pool is covered with alfresco and has multiple sunbathing lounging chairs as well as a covered dining area. But the absolutely best part about it is the unequivocally breathtaking view that it offers!
Kourtney Kardashian
The Kardashians sure understand the concept of lavish living, as evidenced by the Martyn Lawrence Bullard-designed mansion. Christian Liaigre chairs cushioned in a Perennials fabric adorn the pool terrace beside it.
Ralph Lauren
The ultra-successful label designer’s New York estate has its very own pool house adjoining the swimming pool, while the entire property is surrounded by tall, majestic pines, giving it that truly northern woods rustic feel.
Celine Dion
Celine’s years of fame have paid very well, as evident by her Florida home. On top of enjoying 400 feet of Atlantic oceanfront property, the singer practically has her own waterpark, including three separate pools, water slides, and a lazy river.
James Belushi
This gorgeous Mediterranean-inspired estate contains an equally grand pool which is abutted by a pool house and a terrace. With wrought-iron furnishing and a view of the rear garden, one can’t help but feel as if they’re in the Italian countryside as they swim laps in the pool.
Sting
The former rock star’s Villa Il Palagio estate lies in the Valdarno Superiore valley in Tuscany, Italy. With an elongated design ideal for some recreational exercise, the breathtaking view gives one motivation to maybe put in a few extra laps.
Will Smith
Landscape architect Daniel Busbin designed this Mexican-style home for the Smith family in Malibu, California. The free-form pool gives very little indication of being man-made, instead opting for a far more natural look as you’d find on the Mexican riviera.
George Clooney
Clooney’s Baja peninsula home in Mexico contains a lavishly designed L-shaped pool by Legorreta + Legorreta. The teak patio furniture is custom-made from Jasper wood.
C.C. Sabathia
This former NY Yankees pitcher knows how to live it up in grand style! The pool area was placed on an axis with the entrance of his New Jersey home, while the arch atop the fireplace is a recurring form found all around the home. All in all, this is the perfect kind of place to spend an evening with friends and family and a huge bag of marshmallows.
Alex Rodriguez
The baseball player’s Florida home and swimming pool was designed by one of the most prestigious architecture firms. The wet-edge pool is surrounded by artificial grass to preserve water, while designer furniture occupies the barbecue cabana.
Ellen DeGeneres
The famous and well-loved comedian and her partner Portia purchased their Beverly Hills estate before they got married, and the stunning house has a pool perfect for a few quick afternoon laps. Brazilian granite borders the pool, while a small deck area gives it a pleasing aesthetic.
Rob Lowe
Architect Don Nulty strived for a clean lines appearance and an “almost contemporary styling” with the house’s (mansion’s) design, something which evokes thoughts of George Washington’s Mount Vernon home. The equally-lavish swimming area and spa offers a relaxing atmosphere with a subtle fountain feature, as well as designer deck furniture covered with Perennials fabric.
Ashton Kutcher
Prior to moving in with Demi Moore, this was Kutcher’s ideal Hollywood Hills retreat. While the pool itself does indeed look quite precarious, rest assured that it’s completely safe (and offers a stunning view of Lake Hollywood).
Kid Rock
The Kid’s Malibu mansion sits atop the list of most stately decadence, and the pool simply confirms that. With the lush canopy of foliage that surrounds it, the pool is perfectly secluded for maximum privacy. When you’re finished getting in your 20 laps, you can take a rest on the adjoining sofa that’s covered by a canopy of green.
Elton John
Elton John and David Furnish’s California home abuts a modest pool ideal for casual wading and entertaining guests. A sculpture by Roy Lichtenstein graces the pool side.
Tom Brady
Even though they own a private island, the skilled quarterback and his wife Gisele Bündchen still live in style at their LA home. Their infinity pool allows them to wade slowly into the refreshing waters and take in the gorgeous view of the city with the Pacific Ocean off in the distance.
Sylvester Stallone
Stallone has earned his millions through a long and prosperous career, and he’s used it to purchase several stately homes. This swimming pool in his Miami estate is a favorite among many, not only for the Neoclassical-style decor, but also for that really cool bronze Rocky Balboa statue!
Marc Anthony
J-Lo’s former hubby sure knows how to pick them! His Dominican Republic compound was designed by local architect Dino Barré, and clearly no expenses were withheld with the swimming area. The pool bottom is sandy, while the villas surrounding it were constructed using American pine and cane roofing.
Cindy Crawford
The former health model has quite the luxurious swimming pool for staying fit and slim. Its L-shape allows for short and concise strides for combined arm and leg exercise – all while enjoying an incredible view of the Pacific ocean!
Jennifer Aniston
Jen’s gorgeous Beverly Hills estate contains all the modern and elegant amenities – including a custom-designed swimming area. The deck surrounding it is covered with travertine flooring.
Patrick Dempsey
The Grey’s Anatomy star took his earnings from the popular show and purchased an upscale home in Malibu. The secluded pool is perfect for any celebrity family wishing for some privacy, while the deck is made from recycled wood.
Drake
Quite possibly the coolest private swimming pool ever, I think many people would be just fine with living in this grotto and making do without a house. And this torch-lit cave is only a section of the pool! The outside part displays a pair of wide waterfalls and a swim-up bar right at the pool’s edge. If that isn’t enough, you can even play a little volleyball in the rectangle of sand right next to the pool.
Adam Levine
This singer’s 1940s ranch-style house set in the Hollywood Hills was designed by Mark Haddawy, and its stately terrace overlooks a palm-enhanced swimming pool.
Ricky Carmichael
The motocross champion takes such great pride in his achievements that he had a goat placed atop the rock decor. Why a goat, you ask? It’s based on his nickname “the Goat” which itself is an acronym for Greatest Of All Time. Needless to say, Ricky’s vast achievements in dirt bike racing has earned him his luxurious zero-entry natural aesthetic pool.
Sheryl Crow
Sheryl Crow’s grand Hollywood Hills estate features an infinity-edge swimming pool with a stunning view of the California vistas.
Mark Wahlberg
Mark’s incredible Beverly Hills mansion is unequivocally stunning, while its pool alone is worth more than the average middle-class American’s house. The grotto style with the waterfall feature gives it a natural look, and a pair of cabanas sit right next to the deck.
John Travolta
John Travolta and Kelly Preston’s Florida home is practically a resort unto itself….and also an airport. That’s right, as you relax in the refreshing water or take a little plunge down the water slide, you can see Travolta’s own private jets (yes, plural) as they land and park themselves literally right next to the pool. How great it must be to land and be in your pool two minutes later!
Demi Moore
Demi Moore renovated this 1950s canyon-side home with husband Ashton Kutcher (with some especial work done to the pool). Her design for the pool surrounded by the gardens included a spacious wood deck for plenty of entertaining.
Tim Bergling (Avicii)
At not even 30, the Swedish DJ was a remix legend, and he liked to show this prestigious title off to the world with his incredible Bird Streets mansion. The pool actually begins right at his doorstep and then flows around the house into a lap pool and ends with a stunning view of the city. With a house like this, the party is always on, but the icon sadly passed away in 2018.
