Sometimes, it isn’t all about the theme parks. Sometimes you just need to relax, get away from the crowds and lounge poolside.
My husband is self-employed and will often sneak away to get a little work done while we’re off playing. His favorite Disney office is with his laptop, in a lounge chair, sipping a cool beverage, by the pool.
So escape the crowds, grab your Rapid Refill mug and let’s go to the pool!
#1. Beach and Yacht Club Pool – Best Pool For Families of All Ages
With a unique sand bottom, this pool appeals to all ages. More reminiscent of a mini water park, three acres of fun include a zero entry sand bottom play area, a lazy river, water slide, water volleyball and splashing waterfalls.
#2. The Big Blue Splash Pool at Disney’s Art of Animation – Best Pool For Toddlers
Over 308,000 gallons of water fill the largest of all the pools on Walt Disney Resort Property. The zero entry splash pool is perfect for toddlers. Underwater speakers pipe in your favorite Disney music. Talk about being immersed in the magic. This pool is perfect.
Tied at #3 and #4 – The Newly Renovated Pools At Grand Floridian and Polynesian Resorts
Both pools have been recently updated and both provide cool, relaxing waterfalls. The kids will enjoy the waterslides and zero entry play areas. All of the amenities are in keeping with the deluxe price tag. A convenient poolside restaurant keeps everyone happy!
#5 – Ol’ Man Island at Port Orleans Riverside Resort – A “deluxe” pool at a moderate price tag.
Waterslide, whirlpool, kiddie pool, and Muddy Rivers pool bar completes this deluxe pool experience at a moderate resort. There are also 5 other “quiet” pools to choose from if you want to relax with a book or you’re forced to do catch up on a little work from the real world.
