Please check with a host or hostess at the front desk of the Resort you wish to visit before you go to find out about pool-access availability. Resort hotel pools may become unavailable from time to time due to capacity limitations.
Due to the high occupancy that is expected, you and your overnight guests may not pool hop during the following dates:. As a reminder, please be mindful of the limited number of pool chairs available, and refrain from leaving towels or personal items on unoccupied pool chairs.

So, for example, Beach Club guests are welcome to use the main Stormalong Bay Beach Club pool, not just the small villa pool. Picture walking into the ocean; this is what a zero entry pool is like. The pool starts with no harshly defined edge. There is simply an incline into the water which starts at zero and gradually increases to a more severe angle.
Instead of having to jump in or go down stairs or a ladder to enter pool, you just walk in. Zero entry can be helpful for guests with mobility issues. Water-capable wheelchairs may be rolled directly into the pool, allowing access without the need to step down or up for swimming. Many guests with younger children also like zero entry pools because little ones can have the fun of being at the big pool without actually going in very deep. Of course, this also requires extra vigilance because although the pool starts out with minimal depth, it does increase precipitously.
What happens if I have a mobility handicap and am staying at a resort without a zero-entry pool? Can I still swim? Yes, absolutely. All the pools at Walt Disney World are now equipped with chair lift devices which can lower guests into the pool, with no need to step down.
See any lifeguard for assistance with the device. Are there baby pools at the Disney resorts? In some cases this does take the form of a traditional baby pool. At others, the low-depth area is part of the main pool.
My child is still in diapers. Is there an age cutoff for them to use the main pool? However, Disney does require the use of swim diapers for diaper-age children. Swim diapers are sold in all the Disney resort gift shops, however sizes may be limited. If you need a size not stocked at the hotel and have no access to a car, you can try getting a delivery from gardengrocer. My child is used to swimming with water wings.
Can he do that at the Disney pools? Go ahead and bring the wings. There are no specific prohibitions against personal floatation devices at the Disney pools. Several of the pools have nearby shops that sell water wings, pool noodles, and the like.
However, while they are not banned outright, you may want to avoid bringing large rafts to small pools. If your raft interferes with other guests, then you may be asked to remove it from the pool. That being said, several of the larger Disney resort pools do rent inner tubes or rafts by the hour or the day.
When in doubt, use the rental. Are there life vests available for adults? Some special needs or reluctant swimmer adults may need or want access to a floatation vest during their Disney visit. The resorts that have attached boating and marina recreation areas also have adult-size life vests already on hand.
Simply go over to the marina area to request one. Generally, yes. In my experience, kids with pool toys become very popular with other kids in the pool who want to play too. Generally yes. Swim masks which cover the eyes, nose, and mouth may not be allowed in the pools, but goggles covering only the eyes typically are allowed.
My kids often swim with goggles and have never been been asked to take them off at Walt Disney World. There may be different rules for goggle use on the resort water slides.
The Disney gift shops are very well stocked. Is there any place at Walt Disney World where I can buy a replacement? While the resort gift shops stock a few sizes of swimsuits, the shops at the Disney water parks have a much larger selection, including plus-size options.
They may be able to send some options over for you to try. There are also some options at Disney Springs. This varies from resort to resort, but generally the deepest part of the main pool will be about four and a half feet deep. Many do, but not all. The others have at least one slide. There are no posted age or height requirements for the resort slides.
However, all guests must be able to go down the slide completely on their own. No lap-riding is allowed. Given child confidence levels, this typically means that the very youngest guests on the kiddie-size slides will be about years old and the youngest guests on the big-size slides will be about years old. This varies slightly from resort to resort, but the typical depth at the base of the slide is about three and a half feet.
Well, there are those life vests at all the pools. If it makes you or your child feel more comfortable, go ahead an have him wear a vest. You can also wait for your child at the bottom of the slide. She chickened out at the top, started crying, and became frozen. I could not see her distress due to the length and angle of the slide. This was obviously not my finest parenting moment. We eventually got it sorted out thanks to a sympathetic cast member, but for years after that my kids only went on the big slides when both parents could be involved in the process.
There are no spas at the value resorts. Most, but not all, of the moderate and deluxe resorts have spas. Kids can, and do, use the hot tubs. Because pool-hopping of this nature is subject to some blackout dates and capacity limits, it is best to check with the front desk staff at the resort where you are staying to see where you can take advantage of this membership benefit during your stay. Another big exception to this rule comes to us with the All-Star trio.
This makes it easy since they are all adjacent to each other and can be accessed by a short walk or drive. The next exception is those staying in either of the Port Orleans resorts. Located down the road, err river, from each other, you can easily hop on over to the neighboring Port Orleans pool.
If this is the case, then you may be granted access to use the pools at a neighboring resort! Split stays are when you stay at one resort for part of your vacation and transfer to another resort for the remainder of your stay. There are many advantages of this, including the ability to visit multiple pool areas over the course of your vacation!
