The AQUA at Providence Marriott is making a big splash in Providence. The hotel now offers day passes to non-hotel guests, and local swimmers are taking full advantage of the perks.
The City's only outdoor hotel pool keeps getting hotter. AQUA was recently voted the "Best Outdoor Lounge" by Rhode Island Monthly magazine for its chic decor and posh cabanas. The poolside lounge boasts four fire pits, comfy lounge chairs and cocktail service. For cigar smokers, AQUA features a small private smoking and cognac menu. The poolside bar also offers a food menu.
For those looking to really kick back and unwind, G Salon & Spa offer spa services to cabana guests (by appointment only). The hotel is currently offering an AQUA package for guests good through Columbus Day. The package includes a poolside deluxe room, two complimentary AQUA cocktails, an AQUA tote bag, sports bottle and sunscreen.
Pool visitors can buy a $20 pass from the hotel front desk on Monday through Thursday (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.), when AQUA is open.
Providence Marriott is one of the City's most popular hotel spots with reasonable rates and close proximity to downtown attractions and area highways.
