Can anyone Confirm that BLT...has heated pools??

[Tinks "SS"]

We have 13 days til we are home!!

I no without a doubt that my boys are gonna want to go swimming and get in the water no matter what the temp. Well, if it's 30 degrees i could talk them out of it...probably not but would try.

I am hoping for some decently warm weather so they can swim. Are the pools definitely heated so they won't freeze their tushes off????

This one may make my mom have a heart attack if the pools aren't heated.

TIA!!

All WDW pools are heated, maybe not bathwater warm but heated.

We stayed at BLT earlier this month when the air temps hovered at 50, and our DGC/DS "enjoyed" the water in the pools. DDiL and I stayed near the hot tub, that is, when we ventured into the pool area.

I was told that all of Disney's pools are kept at about 75 degrees water temperature because a study was done and that is the optimum temperature that most people like.

Last year in February, it was usually cold - in the 30's and I was told by a lifeguard that they do keep them heated but this is based on the air temperature averaging 50 or above - when Florida gets really cold weather like they have been having it is hard for the water to get heated to a warm temperature. The heaters can only do so much.

So, the water should be warm, but if the air is cold, it won't feel like it is a heated pool - personally, I don't like swimming in cold water, but I know a lot of people do - you can give it a try - if it is too cold, then it will be a short swim. Have fun!
