NYC Pool Passes + Beach Resorts with The Best Vibes

With the summer heating up, finding somewhere to cool off with the right vibe can be a daunting task. We had a blast scouting the best options to lounge water-side with a drink in hand so you can soak up the sunshine in style, without a hotel reservation getting in the way. Contact your LIV team if you see something that inspires you, or if you need help planning a trip to a beach, lake, or pool!
