Summer is here, and cooling off by the pool is one of the best ways to enjoy the season, but not all of us have a pool at our disposal. But you know who does have access to a pool or pools? Celebrities do! Celebrities spend their summers lounging by the pool in style and they graciously share pictures on social media for fans to see. And why wouldn't we want to live vicariously through these celebs? They are enjoying their gorgeous pools to the max and we are jealous (in a good way)!

Plus, pools are perfect for impromptu photo shoots featuring cute floaties and bathing suits. We love seeing celebrities like Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez using their pools to bond with their kids. Thalía also loves hanging out with her family in the pool and has been great about sharing those moments on social media! Anyway, whether you're lounging by your own pool or craving a pool of your own, check out these celebs who are living their best poolside lives.
Christina Aguilera manages to look all glam while chillin' in the pool.
Instead of wearing a bathing suit, she's sporting a white tank dress and a glorious big white sun hat. She accessorized the look with a glass of vino—white, of course. Notice how the wine glass has a perfect lipstick mark on it. Xtina knows how to make the most of her pool, for sure.
Mario Lopez uses pool time to bond with his baby boy.
"My little Sonny & me, soaking up some Cali rays," wrote Mario when he posted this picture of himself with his youngest child, Santino. How cute is Santino chewing on his teether? Don't mind him, he's just living his best baby life and hanging out with his famous papa.
Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez use their pool all the time.
Their pool is featured on their Instagram accounts all the time and they use the pool even when it’s raining. Alex filmed J.Lo as she stood in the rain before running to the pool and jumping right in. He captioned the video: "Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass. It’s about learning to dance in the rain (or jump in the pool )."
J.Lo's pool is the scene of beautiful family moments.
Jen and A-Rod have a beautiful blended family and they all like to make use of their pool. Can you blame them? It's such a great way to bond and have fun outdoors without having to leave your home. Their pool gets to witness so much fun and affection. J.Lo's son is missing from this particular pool picture, so maybe he's the one taking the picture.
Check out the size of Mariah Carey's pool!
"Hello 2020! Cheers, toast, bravo to a spectacular new year!! ❤️," wrote Mariah when she posted this video of herself sitting poolside. This has got to be one of the most spectacular pools we've ever seen. It's huge, beautiful, and just keeps going and going. Not that we would expect anything less from Mariah, but still—WOW!
Gisele Bündchen does yoga with her daughter by the pool.
On July 7, 2020, the Brazilian supermodel posted a series of photos of her and Vivian doing yoga together. In one of the photos, they are next to a pool that overlooks the adjacent woods. Talk about storybook setting. It’s absolutely beautiful there and such a great spot to center yourself and feel at one with nature.
How does Salma Hayek relax?
She goes with the flow. We know because when she posted this picture of herself rocking a lovely red bikini, she wrote: “Go with the flow #gowiththeflow. Déjate llevar. #summervibes.” Salma spends a lot of time in her pool or at least it seems like she does because it’s often featured on her Instagram account. Wish we were there, Salma!
Here’s Salma giving us major pool envy again.
Seriously, if we had access to a pool situation like this, we're not sure we would ever get out of the dang pool. We'd just ask Salma to scooch over and stop hogging the faucet. We might ask her to put on a bathing suit, too. Just kidding, Salma, you do you because it's clearly working.
Thalía and her family know how to make the most out of their pool.
The entertainer's poop emoji pool float is hilarious, you can see it in the second and third slides. Much more hilarious than actual poop in a pool. We love how everyone is having so much fun on their giant floaties. What is it about big floaties that makes them so much fun? Do you think Thalía blew them up herself?
Oh, and we can't resist sharing this Flamin' Hot picture of Thalía too.
Here, Thalía opted for a much more basic floatie but her bathing suit is nothing short of flamin' hot and we love it! We are also diggin' that visor she has on, it's great. Oh, and her sense of humor is too cute. She captioned this photo: "I’m cheesy and I know it. "
Sofía Vergara likes to read while floating.
Sofía used her pool time during the 2020 Memorial Day weekend to get some reading done while looking pretty on a floatie. What’s she reading? She appears to be reading The Silent Patient a novel by Alex Michaelides. It’s describes as a psychological thriller. She seems pretty engrossed in it.
Kim Kardashian has been known to partake of pool time.
Pool time makes for the perfect opportunity for her to showcase those famous curves of hers. The itty bitty bikini she's wearing in this picture kind of matches the whole pool scene going on with its warm brown tones. Kim wasn't about to waste an opportunity to get a photo taken of herself in this setting.
Alessandra Ambrosio like to spend all day in the pool.
The Brazilian model looks magazine layout ready as she lounges by the pool. Apparently, she is quite happy to stay in the pool all day because her caption reads: "By the pool …. all day ‼️☀️ ." If we had a pool like that, we'd spend a lot of time in it, too.
Eva Longoria likes to twin with her son.
Can we please take a moment to SQUEE in delight at how cute it is that Eva is twinning with her son Santiago? They are so cute we can hardly stand it. Oh, please, please, let us see more twinning moments like this Eva. They can be by the pool or anywhere. We just want more.
Demi Lovato likes to spend time in her pool with her main squeeze.
She and her fiancé Max Ehrich are all wrapped up in each others arms when they are in the pool together. It's nice to see them so in love and when you are that in love what could possibly be more fun that getting cool in the pool with your love? We're thinking not much.
Khloé Kardashian known how to strike a poolside pose.
Khloé often uses her pool as a backdrop for photos. Here she's looking all modelesque and aloof with Scott Disick—her sister Kourtney's ex—by her side. The nude heels she's wearing make her already long legs look even longer. We might have to cop that look from her.
Reese Witherspoon conjures Elle Woods while floating in her pool.
Legally Blonde will always be a classic and Elle Woods is the character that made Reese Whitherspoon beloved by so many. Reese posted this video of herself wearing Elle's bikini back in 2018 when she confirmed that a Legally Blonde 3 was on the way. Reese makes that bathing suit looks as fresh as the first time we saw it.
Kylie Jenner does not lay by the pool.
Why lay by the pool when you can slay by the pool? We're thinking that's Kylie's motto. Her brown bikini looks so classy here and has some retro vibes. Kylie's pool gets a lot of photo time on her Instagram profile and her bathing suits are always on point.
Jessica Simpson catches mermaids in her pool.
All this time we thought that mermaids weren't real, but Jessica Simpson has proven us wrong. She totally caught a mermaid in her pool! OK, fine, it's not really a mermaid, it's Jessica's daughter, Maxwell Drew, but she certainly looks the part.
Sherlyn looks like the picture of relaxation.
We love the stone wall backdrop and general vibe of this pool area. Sheryln looks at peace and like she hasn't a care in the world. This photo was taken a while back, before the Mexican actress and singer welcomed her son André into the world.
Elizabeth Gutiérrez can't stop smiling!
Elizabeth is #blessed. After all, what's not to love about a hot tub and pool combo? You can spend all day cooling down in the pool and then when the temperatures cool down in the evening, you can jump into the hot tub. The only problem is you might never want to get out.
Alessandra Rosaldo forgot to invite the rest of us to heaven.
This pool is heavenly. The way it overlooks the ocean and seems to be at one with it is so extra that we are more than a little jealous of Alessandra. It's not that we don't want her to enjoy herself, it's that we wish we could be there with her enjoying ourselves as well.
It looks as if Paula Echeverría's pool was carved out from the forest.
The background is unreal. It reminds us of the Gisele's pool. It's like having a pool by an enchanted forest. Do you think creatures come out of the forest at night and try to go for a swim? It certainly looks like that forest has some wildlife in it.
