Villas with a private pool on Ischia
On most islands a pool is simply a pool. On Ischia it may be fed by the same volcanic springs that have drawn bathers since antiquity, warm and rich in minerals. The island's thermal tradition is its defining pleasure, and a private pool of spring water lets you bathe at dawn, at midnight or on a cool October evening, without sharing it with anyone.
The pools below range widely. Several west facing houses near Forio offer 32°C thermal water, one as an infinity pool of 25 sq m above the port; a park of volcanic stone walls holds a figure of eight pool 25 m long; and tiered terraces above Casamicciola combine a 15 m pool, a thermal pool and a Japanese garden of fish.

Thermal pools keep their warmth when the air cools, which makes spring and early autumn stays especially pleasant.
Warm mineral water relaxes but also tires. Short sessions with breaks in the shade are the local custom.
Casamicciola and Lacco Ameno grew up around their thermal springs, and the island's spa gardens offer another way to bathe.

Questions before you choose
What is a thermal water pool?
It is filled from an underground volcanic spring rather than the mains, so the water arrives naturally warm and rich in minerals. Where a villa states a temperature, such as 32°C, that is its typical warmth.
Can children use thermal pools?
Yes, in moderation. Warm mineral water can be tiring, so shorter swims suit young children. One house on this page pairs its thermal pool with a larger conventional one.
How do I enquire?
Pick up to five villas and add your dates to a single request. A person confirms availability and prices within one working day. In high season, stays usually run Saturday to Saturday.
