I am looking for info on which resorts have the best pool for a 16 month old and almost 3 year old. My 3 year old loves the water and it would be great if one of the resort pools had a kiddie slide? Does anything like this exsist?
 
The pool at the YC/BC - Storm Along Bay - is great for toddlers. It has a sand beach area where they can play in the sand and the water area is very shallow. There are plenty of seats for the adults in this area too.
I don't think there is a slide for the little ones though.
 
I don't remember any pools have a separate slide for little ones. The pool at PO French Quarter is designed for younger swimmers; it's short and looks like a dragon. Poly and AK have zero entry pools, that means one end starts at zero inches and gradually goes deep.
 
Any of the pools with zero entry (like walking into the ocean - from flat to deeper...) The kids can play at the water's edge. I know the "new" pool at the GF, the volcano pool at Poly, the pool at AKL all have this :thumbsup2
 

Boardwalk has a separate toddler pool. The water parks have toddler play areas with little slides. The Beach & Yacht Club has a kids slide out by the stairs up to the big water slide - but the slide might be too much for a toddler.
 
Saragota Springs main pool is AWESOME for toddlers! It is a real highlight for our little guy. We've stayed many places, but we think this is the best pool for the 2-5 age group, without a doubt!

They have a wonderful squirting fountain play area that my little boy could happily spend all day every day in. The ground is soft and padded and they can jump, skip, splash, and run till their hearts content!

There is a zero entry area, which is the absolute best for little people! They can wade in, sit and splash on the shallow slope, etc. It's great!

They also have (in addition to their regular water slide) a very short little slide that is PERFECT for toddlers! My two and a half year old LOVED this in December. It was just right for him to climb up the little steps and go down by himself. (Of course, I caught him at the bottom!) I bet your almost 3 year old would really, really love it. It's just the right size for that age.

Anyway, we love this resort - even though we aren't DVC members - and it often gets overlooked here. We think it's great!!

P.S. They have the most awesome playground there too! Just about the nicest we've seen anywhere on property. Plus, if you get a one or two bedroom, having a full kitchen and washer/dryer is HEAVEN with a toddler - not too mention with a baby along as well!
