Mermaid tails in Disney hotel pools?

[Raya]

Has anyone used a mermaid tail for kids or adults in one of the Disney pools for swimming? We're going to be at the Grand Californian. I don't want to pack it if it we'll just be sent back to the room to change....

Here's a link so you know what I'm talking about:

They don't allow flippers, so I doubt they would allow this.

I know that pool toys are not allowed and I don't know how they'd classify this. I'd call to be sure.

One thing to remember is that the pools are often very crowded and there are a lot of children and it would be highly unlikely that you'd have much room to 'mermaid swim'. And I can see where Disney might feel they could be a hazard to other guests (getting 'fin-flipped' accidentally) or the wearer (getting crowded in the deep end with one's legs basically tied together), especially if the wearer is a child. Disney has no way to know the wearers swimming ability.

But it sure is cute. Being a mermaid was always my dream as a child. One I haven't quite given up on.

I checked a sat view of the hotel and its 3 small pools with 3 very small hot tub like pools. If allowed, probably not, I doubt you could get 2 kicks before you got to the the other side of the largest pool.

Why do you want to stress the lifeguards out?

Save the space and leave it at home. 99% chance that isn't allowed imho.

Thanks everyone. I confirmed with the hotel manager of recreation that no fins of any kind can be used in the pool at any time.
