Arriving late February and wondering if the Bay Lake Tower pool refurbishment scheduled for January 26 has started??? Thanks...

I was there January 27 thru 30, and the pool was closed. Didn't look like they had done much if anything. The pools were still filled with water.

Any updates? Wondering if they’ve gotten started. We have a mid May trip planned and hoping it’s reopened by then.

Sorry I meant to update. We left on Wednesday and as of then the pool still had yucky water and no work was being done to the pool yet.

There was work started on the building that exits to the pool. I completely forgot to get photos.

Glad to hear there’s at least some movement- thanks for that update!

Here now. Pool had the yucky water over the weekend. It is now fully empty and the construction crew was sanding it this morning. FWIW, my husband was talking with some of the workers and it doesn’t sound promising for May. Sounds like they are waiting on parts and tariffs are playing a role.

Is the beach area behind the pool open?

Is the beach area behind the pool open?

Not sure. Gate to the pool area was locked so I doubt the beach area is open.

FYI - we were there last week and its definitely slow going with only a few workers each day and not much urgency. Work seemed to be in the pool itself and looked like they were replacing tiles along the edge of the pool. Didn't seem like much else was happening, everything else looked like it had before it was closed off.
