The Crown of The Dragonfly: The Rose Pool

Our stunning natural pool at The Dragonfly Retreat offers a unique and refreshing swimming experience, fed by the pristine waters of the Río Grande in Coín. Spanning 17 meters in length, 6 meters in width, and reaching a depth of 3 meters, this expansive pool is a true oasis, blending seamlessly into the surrounding natural landscape.

The crystal-clear water is sourced directly from the river, ensuring a fresh and invigorating swim, free from harsh chemicals. Designed to harmonise with nature, the pool provides a tranquil setting for relaxation, reflection, or simply cooling off under the warm Andalusian sun. Whether you’re floating in stillness, taking a revitalising dip, or enjoying the peaceful ambiance of the retreat, our natural pool offers an unparalleled connection to the elements.

The Río Grande in Coín, Málaga, is a tributary of the Guadalhorce River, one of the main rivers in Andalusia. The source of the Río Grande comes from the Sierra de las Nieves Natural Park, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve known for its lush landscapes, underground springs, and unique biodiversity.

The river is fed by natural mountain springs and rainfall, flowing through the valleys and farmlands of Coín before merging with the Guadalhorce River, which eventually reaches the Mediterranean Sea. Its pure, mineral-rich waters make it a valuable natural resource, supporting local agriculture, wildlife, and, of course, your natural spring pool at The Dragonfly Retreat
