pool, jacuzzi etc in cali ?

can anyone tell me if there is anywhere in CALI i can find a place to relax with a pool, sun lounger and jacuzzi etc ? i have bad skin and need to get some good sun on it. Im currently in cali now but staying with my girlfriend in her apartment.
Im just looking to lounge and get good sun as i have Psoriasis skin condition and it is bad at moment.
Anyone know of anywhere where i can go without having membership etc ?
Dont know if there is any such place.
Thanks

oh dear me ! So, there i am on the miami to cali route. The flight is relatively unoccupied and im feeling relatively relaxed. My 1.88 tall metre frame is not having to withstand the reclining seat in front as no one is sitting there. Great, not so hemmed in this time im thinking. Then crash.......all of a sudden some complete muppet has decided to move seat in the middle of the flight......he could have gone anywhere, sat anywhere else but he decides to crash his fat arse in front of me and reclines the seat....what ? , why ? hes actually annoyed me. i think to say to him " why?" but he is more involved with his IPOD and stupidly overt, large headphones and shuffling in his seat.
Cursing, i forget it and think about moving myself but i decide im over reacting a bit, maybe because ive been travelling for nearly a day and im over tired.
So, we depart the flight and as we are getting off he starts.
"hey, Gee, where u from ?"
me " er, well......"
him" you are one of us....i could see"
me" but you are american right ? and well, im english so it means im not one of........"
interrupts " hell, we are the same, im from there as well....."
me" but you have a strong american accent.....how ?"
him" how ? jesus, we came from there , hastings"
me" what ? but........."
him" 100 years ago we got booted from there, im protestant"
me" right, well, great."
Im moving quicker now. i notice his face is red, bulbous nose........damm ugly overweight muppet i conclude. Hes loud, too loud.
I keep moving....he moves quicker......ARRRRRGGGGGHHHHH
then he starts again.
" what you here for ? sex, drugs, women , right ?"
" well, actually , im just here for my novia....im not really into Cali, dont really like the place" ( which is the truth)
him" you dont like it ? girls man, have what you want, hell they are easy, its free here, free sex"
AT THIS POINT IM THINKING, IS THIS THE ELMO CHARACTER FROM POOR BUT HAPPY.
he continues " im married , cali girl, but she is cool .....i can have who i want....we have THAT kind of relationship, you know"
At that point i just bolted. I was tired, he was a muppet and i pityed the poor woman who he climbs onto from time to time inbetween all his other activities. LOSER...

Hotel Aristi, a downtown hotel very popular with gringos, has a nice rooftop pool. I've known non-residents using it for a few thousand pesos.

Apartahotel del rio has a nice pool on the roof with areas for sun. Or you can go to a pool named Comfandi(?) for relaxing or parque la cana(which is more active).
