FAQ: Walt Disney World resort pools
Who has the best Disney World pool?
It is impossible to pick just one, but there are a couple of standouts when it comes to themes, perks, and good old-fashioned fun.
Stormalong Bay, shared by Disney's Yacht Club Resort and Disney's Beach Club Resort, is a sprawling destination with features that will appeal to every age group in your party. The Polynesian Village Resort is a also a great choice to feel as if you've been transported to the South Pacific. This tropical escape has a fantastic waterslide, a well-designed play area for kids, and delicious Dole Whips.
Who has the worst Disney World pool?
The Contemporary Resort is one of the most beloved hotels in Walt Disney World for its futuristic architecture, Mary Blair murals in the lobby, and its proximity to the Magic Kingdom.
However, the pool is rather plain when compared to the other options on this list.
Do I have to be a guest to use a Disney pool?
Yes, the Disney World Resort pools are only for the use of guests at the Disney World Resort. To enter the pool area, you need to scan your Disney MagicBand or the app on your phone for access.
If you'd like to have a Disney water experience but are not staying at one of their resorts, consider visiting a Disney water park such as Disney's Typhoon Lagoon or Disney's Blizzard Beach.
Is pool hopping allowed at Disney resorts?
Unfortunately, you can only enjoy the pools at the resort you are booked at.
But if you are staying at one of the All-Star Resorts (All-Star Movies, All-Star Music, and All-Star Sports), you can visit any of their three pools, and guests at the Port Orleans – French Quarter and Port Orleans – Riverside may visit both of these resorts pool areas. I
f you happen to be a Disney Vacation Club (DVC) member, you can also take advantage of the "Complimentary Alternative Pool Use" option as part of their membership extras, but you can only visit the pools at other DVC resorts, and there are blackout periods.
What are the best Disney pools for toddlers and young children?
One of the great things about a Walt Disney Resort is that they consider the entire family's experience. With that said, they are very mindful of the safety and fun factor for toddlers and young guests. Stormalong Bay has a wonderful sand bottom pool that's shallow and perfect for wading and building sandcastles.
Little ones also enjoy Disney's Art of Animation Resort. While there are three themed pools to choose from, the Big Blue Pool is an ideal pool destination since it has a zero-depth entry pool, the Schoolyard Sprayground, and Squirt's Righteous Reef dry play area.
Which Disney resort has the best water slide?
One of the most popular resort water slides at Disney World is at Stormalong Bay. This shipwreck-themed wide ride consists of both a tunnel and exterior section in the course of about 200 feet.
For added whimsy, Doubloon Lagoon's sea serpent slide Port Orleans Resort – French Quarter is one that kids (and adults) will find delightful.
