"Had a great time from checking in at $40 per night, had the largest spot 5 away from the pool. The pool was nicely remodeled, the snack shack was filled with food, drinks. The location is centrally located to all restaurants, boardwalk, and wharf. We will be back"

"I love visiting this pool; it's truly delightful. The on-site snack shack offers a variety of food, and the staff is incredibly friendly. The pool is consistently clean and spacious, ensuring everyone's comfort. I particularly enjoy their events, especially on Fridays, where children can play and adults can unwind with a drink. It's the perfect spot to engage my kids and have fun together, whether we're swimming or playing games."

"I'm not a member, but my daughter is. They have a nice pool, with various games children will enjoy. There's a nice selection of pool food and beverages (including adult beverages) affordably priced. We celebrated our granddaughter's b-day party there, too. Membership seemed reasonable. Everyone was enjoying the pool."
