Frequently asked questions about day passes in Spain

  • A day pass is daytime access to a hotel's facilities — pool, restaurants and common areas — without staying overnight. In Spain there are 95 hotels and resorts offering one, and you book online for the date you want. You arrive in the morning, use the hotel for the day and leave in the evening.

  • Day passes in Spain start at 33 USD per person, and the typical pass sits around 108 USD. The price depends on the hotel, on whether food and drinks are included and on the date: weekends and holidays are the most expensive. Most passes run 10:00 to 18:00, a full day rather than a couple of hours; the exact window is shown on every pass before you book.

  • No. A day pass exists precisely so you can use the hotel without booking a room. You check in at the front desk with your booking, use the facilities the pass covers for the hours it covers, and leave at the end of the day. It works the same whether you are visiting Spain, staying somewhere else in town or you live nearby. More about how Daypass works.

  • You book on Daypass for a specific date and receive a confirmation with a QR code. Bring that confirmation — on your phone or printed — along with a valid photo ID matching the name on the booking, plus whatever the hotel asks for, such as swimwear. In Spain most passes run 10:00 to 18:00: arrive within that window to make the most of the day. More about how Daypass works.

  • It depends on the rate you choose. The refundable rate includes a cancellation insurance fee and lets you cancel up to 24 hours before your day pass starts, refunding what you paid minus that fee. The non-refundable rate is cheaper and does not allow cancellations or refunds except in limited cases. Both are shown side by side at checkout when the hotel in Spain offers them. More about how Daypass works.

  • Yes, many hotels accept same-day bookings while there is availability. We recommend booking before 10:00 AM local time so the hotel has time to prepare. Weekends in Spain fill up first, so booking a day or two ahead is safer if your date is fixed. More about how Daypass works.

  • It depends on the hotel. In Spain, family hotels welcome children, usually at a reduced rate, and tend to have shallow pools and a kids club; adults-only hotels do not admit them, generally under 18. The age policy and the child price are shown on every pass before you book. More about how Daypass works.
