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For that reason, we ask for your help: If any of the information in the listing is incorrect, out of date, or could be improved, please tell us.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 Notes

The Grande Lakes Resort consists of two separate hotels on the same property, with a spa located between them. The use of the 33-yard, 4-lane pool is generally exclusive to spa patrons. The two hotels both have large, resort-type pools, none of which is particularly suited to lap swimming.
According to our sources, the spa pool is open from about 7 AM to 9 PM and guests at either hotel can use the swimming pool from 7 to about 9 AM for free; after the spa opens guests must purchase a spa service to use the pool and the spa facilities (steam room, sauna, whirlpool, etc.) There is no charge for to use the pool (only) before the spa opens at 9 AM but after that a spa pass must be purchased.

Facility Reviews

A beautiful pool, with lanes indicated by the tile on the bottom of the pool. It is open from about 6 AM to 8 AM although if you are still doing laps they won't throw you out. The rest of the day it is reserved for spa patrons - lap swimming not allowed. The water was absolutely clean and towels were provided. A great swim.
It may be heated but sure felt cold… A beautiful pool. The Marriott also has other large swimming pools with no lane markings, irregular shape, but easily 25y+.
