Best Pools for Toddlers?

[lisaisjessiesmom]

For our last trip, we stayed at CBR and loved the pool area - especially the little section just for kids. Do any other moderates have a nice kid pool, or is CBR our best bet? I was leaning towards trying Coronado Springs, but wasn't sure how toddler friendly the pool area is. Thank you!

I think CBR definitely has the best for toddlers.

CSR is a favorite of mine but their pool is not nearly as toddler friendly. No zero entry, no splash area, no small scale slide.

Frankly I'd stick with CBR in the moderate category if a toddler friendly pool is important. There's not another moderate that can compare in that respect.

Our favorites for moderate Toddler Pools are CBR and POFQ. POFQ just added there new splash pad in the past year or 2 and it is excellent for little ones!

CBR and POFQ are the only moderates with that level of splash area. You can use the POFQ pool if staying at POR though. We did this a few weeks ago (though I do think the water pressure was a little much at POFQ, it scared my 2 year old).

POR and CSR have the round kiddie pools.
AOA and Pop have a sprinkler splash pad (fountains of water from the ground)
I know WL, AKL, and GF have the splash park (with the slides) too.

This is important to me too as I don't always want to have to be "swimming" with my toddler.

Thanks for the recommendations! We ended up booking POFQ. I've never stayed there before, so I am looking forward to trying it.

If you haven't already checkout www.portorleans.org for a lot of info on both POFQ & POR. Staying at POFQ you are also allowed to use any of the pools at POR.

When my daughter was 2 we stayed at pop century and their facilities were perfect for her age. Glad to read that POFQ also has a kid friendly pool!

Toddler loved the AoA splash pad.

Movies was meh with a little pool with a rock type feature.

SSR has a ton of splash pad type stuff.
