  • These incredible photos show the San Alfonso del Mar resort in Chile — home to the second largest swimming pool in the world. The outdoor pool is located halfway up the country’s Pacific Coast in the city of Algarrobo and is filled with a staggering 66 million gallons of crystal clear seawater. Spanning an area of 20 acres — and equivalent in size to 6,000 average size home swimming pools — the San Alfonso pool, designed by water innovation company Crystal Lagoons, was until recently the Guinness World Record for the world’s largest swimming pool. But in December 2015 a sister project by Crystal Lagoons in Sharm el Sheikh, Egypt, took over the title with the completion of a 30 acre pool, the first phase of plans for a total of 12 lagoons that will span 250 acres and the centerpiece of the USD $5.5 billion, 1,8500-acre Citystars project with residential apartments, hotels and shopping. Still, Sharm el Sheikh’s older sister pool in Chile, at 3,323ft long with a maximum depth of 11.5ft, is still quite the sight to behold and will turn 11-years-old next month, after opening back in December 2006. The San Alfonso pool, situated right next to the Pacific Ocean, uses a computer-controlled filtration system to suck water from the sea at one end and pump it back out at the other. The sun warms the pool to 26 degrees Celsius (79 degrees Fahrenheit) — nine degrees Celsius (48 degrees Fahrenheit) warmer than the ocean. And being the size it is, swimming it not the only thing on the agenda — the gigantic size makes it possible to sail boats and carry out all kinds of fun water sports activities. 14 Nov 2017 Pictured: The San Alfonso del Mar resort in Algarrobo, Chile — home to the second largest swimming pool in the world.

  • Meet Charley — a dancing robot ‘butler’ who delivers mini-bar item directly to your door at a new super luxury apartment tower in Los Angeles. Charley, who is based in the lobby at the opulent 40-storey Ten Thousand complex, can deliver anything from a bottle of water to champagne and chocolates to residents’ doors. A spokesman for Ten Thousand explained: “The resident makes a request and Charley enters the elevator and brings it to your door.  “Once the item is retrieved, Charley does a little dance and proceeds back down to the lobby.” Charley is one of a host of super high-end service on offer at Ten Thousand, which is located on the border of Beverly Hills and Century City and opened last year. The property, designed by Handel Architects, is being billed as the future of LA’s real estate market as the city looks to build more high-rise residences, much like the New York aesthetic. The residential tower features 75,000 sq ft of amenities and hospitality services overseen by a house staff of 80, from a leading-edge fitness and wellness center, indoor and outdoor pools, indoor and outdoor theaters, performance coaches, nutritionists and in-house car service, Residents can even book a room with an exam table to have facials and massages, or even call in their own medical technician — so if you need a few botox jabs or your fillers updating, you have the luxury of being able to do so on the site of your residence. Such luxury comes with a hefty price tag of course — two and three-bedroom apartments, complete with 10ft-high ceilings and panoramic views through floor-to-ceiling glass windows range anywhere from $9,000 to $25,000 per month while the jewel in the crown is the penthouse at $65,000 per month. 14 Jan 2018 Pictured: Ten Thousand is a new high-rise, luxury development in Los Angeles, California.
