Important Notice Please Read

Swimmers Guide is not connected with any of the facilities listed on this site in any way. We cannot tell you the pools’ opening and closing times or when Senior Aerobics classes are held; we cannot tell you about the availability or cost of swimming lessons; we cannot get you discounted admission to swim at any of them; and we cannot help you find your children’s lost goggles or bathing suits.

We can and do try to give you reliable information about the pools, their locations, their admission policies, and their single-visit or casual swimming prices. Where possible, we include hypertext links to the pools’ own official websites and Facebook pages, clickable email addresses, and links to the websites of the clubs and teams that swim there. Look to those resources within each listing for more detailed information.

The data in the site is under continual review and is revised whenever the site’s editor becomes aware of a change, but, with more than 20,000 listings, a complete, periodic review of every listing takes about seven years to complete; in many places, prices will change four or five times before we have a chance to check the pool’s official website again.

For that reason, we ask for your help: If any of the information in the listing is incorrect, out of date, or could be improved, please tell us. There is an "Edit" button on just about every line of every listing, click on the edit button to tell us what needs to be changed. (No, it's not a place for you to ask us questions. What we have in each listing is the latest news we have.)

Also, please consider checking the listings of the pools you regularly use at home or when traveling, as your knowledge may be helpful to someone else who is unfamiliar with the area and visiting for the first time. Just go to the Add a Pool section of the site, read the first page, then fill out the questionnaire.

Facility Reviews

Fairmont Hot Springs Resort has several indoor and outdoor pools with different water temperatures. Swimming laps can be a challenge due to the crowd. During off hours and school days lap swimming is fine. Locker rooms are very basic and a little dirty.
I was there when there were no other swimmers in the indoor pool. They wanted a fee for drop-in swimmers, but I do not remember if there were specific hours for drop-ins. They would have let me swim, but I couldn't figure out where, since the pool was a long approximately 50 yards/meters long and they had it roped off about 3/4 of the way down the length of pool. I asked them about this because it did not make sense to me. Then I figured out they did not want me to swim the length of the pool, they wanted me to do laps across the width of the pool. The width only looked 45-50 feet wide, so it was not set up for an experienced swimmer.

It looked like a nice resort, however, so someone may want to consider the other amenities that the resort has to offer.
