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For that reason, we ask for your help: If any of the information in the listing is incorrect, out of date, or could be improved, please tell us.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

This pool is right in the theme park area, saving vacationers from having to get on the freeway to go to pools in Fullerton or La Mirada. It's a hotel pool, so it's not perfect conditions. The hotel itself is dated, but clean with reasonable rates. This pool is a hidden gem and can't be seen from the street.
Pros:
  • This is the ONLY pool in the immediate resort area configured for lap swimming.
  • The water temperature is OK.
  • I was the only one in the pool at 9 AM.
  • Access to the pool is free for guests registered at the hotel.

Cons:
  • There are no lane ropes and there was a rope (with no buoys) across the lanes to divide shallow water from deeper water.

I needed to attend a meeting in the Disneyland neighborhood and picked this hotel because of the pool. Big mistake. The pool is unswimable. The water was very cloudy at 8 AM, its opening time. The chemical load was unbearable. I swam 1,000 yards and cried uncle. It’s too bad.

The hotel is a lovely throwback to earlier days in Southern California. No inside corridors. Lovely, breezy walkways throughout the property. The pool is large and unlike today’s hotel pools, has a deep end. The pool area is large and pretty.

What a disappointment!
