Just a 1.5-hour drive from central Tokyo, BOTANICAL POOL CLUB in Chiba feels like stepping into a resort far from the city. With ocean views, palm trees, and two striking pools, it’s an easy escape for anyone craving a bit of sun and sea - and the best part is, it’s dog-friendly.
Dog-Friendly Luxury with Stunning Pool Views
We stayed at the Pool Terrace Room, which opens directly onto the Signature Pool - a circular pool surrounded by fire features and cabanas. Beyond it lies the Black Pool, a 40-metre infinity pool blending into the horizon. On clear days, you might even catch Mount Fuji in the distance.
Summer is the peak season, but the cooler months are also worth visiting. The pools are heated, the crowds are smaller, and the atmosphere is calmer and more intimate - perfect for enjoying the surroundings in peace.
BPC BBQ: Poolside Dining
As the sun set, we enjoyed a private BPC BBQ on our room’s terrace overlooking the pool and ocean, featuring a selection of meats including pork, chicken, lamb chops, and truffle sausages. Fresh clams and abalone add a coastal touch, complemented by seasonal vegetables and Chiba-grown herbs.
Breakfast with a View
In the morning, we enjoyed a sauna session followed by a simple breakfast sandwich, a salad bar buffet and coffee while watching the pool shimmer under early sunlight. Qoo, our dog, lounged happily by our side - another reminder of how rare it is to find a luxury stay that truly welcomes pets.
