Walt Disney World's Best Pools

"Which Walt Disney World Resort has the best pool?" is one of the most frequently asked questions my guests have. Of course we love spending days at the park but we also make sure to take a few days off to just enjoy our resort and spend lots of time swimming. I have come up with a list of my most favorite pools on property and why the are so impressive.

Yacht and Beach Club- Stormalong Bay:
The Yacht and Beach club are sister Deluxe Resorts that share an amazing pool called Stormalong Bay. Complete with a zero entry, sand bottom pool, an amazing 230 foot slide, 3 whirlpools and even a lazy river, this pool is often referred to as, the best pool on property.  Stormalong Bay holds 795,000 gallons of water and spans over 3 acres of land. There are also 3 additional leisure pools on property and a shipwreck pool specifically for children with a smaller water slide.




Polynesian:
Within the Polynesian, a Deluxe Resort, you will find several pools with great amenities. The Lava Pool features an impressive volcano, waterfall and thrilling 142 foot water slide. It also has a zero entry point. Kiki Tiki water play area made just for kids with a fun Polynesian theme, bridges, splash areas, slides and more. The Polynesian is also located right on the Monorail which makes for super easy transportation to Magic Kingdom and EPCOT. Oasis Pool is for all ages but is much quieter and tranquil than the lava pool, perfect for families that want a relaxing evening dip in the pool.



Port Orleans Riverside and French Quarter:
Riverside and French Quarter are Moderate sister resorts much like the Yacht and Beach Club. You may utilize both resort's pools making for lots of fun options during non park days. At French Quarter its Mardi Gras every day and their pool certainly shows it! You'll find a super fun splash pad for guests 48" and smaller, whirlpool spa, a large pool complete with a serpent slide, Mardi Grags pool bar and several smaller pools throughout the property. Riverside offers a fun water slide, large pool with whirl pool tub, pool bar and a kiddie pool. You will also have access to 5 leisure pools located around the property. No matter where your room is located, you're never far from a pool!






Art of Animation:
AOA is a Value resort filled with fun, great pools and a fantastic room price that makes it perfect for families looking for a memorable vacation while sticking to a budget. Here you'll find the Big Blue Pool, inspired by Disney Pixar's hit Finding Nemo. Adults and children will love the big blue pool for its amazingly large size, underwater speakers and fun theme. The Cozy Cone Pool is inspired by Disney Pixar's Cars movie where you'll find cone shaped cabanas, and life size Cars characters. Flipping Fins Pool is inspired by The Little Mermaid and features the Under The Sea Orchestra.
