Nickhotel: Which pool area's better?

[MrsMud]

Booked 2 nights at the Nickhotel, and not sure which side I should request. I looked at the website and it seems the Oasis pool has 2 slides that empty into the pool, while the slides at the Lagoon pool don't empty into the pool, but the overall play area looks much bigger. I have 2 girls 7 and 9 who I know would love the pool slides at the Oasis pool, but we will have just spent 4 nights at the Hard Rock Hotel with the pool slide, so I'm thinking that won't be such a neccessity by the time we get to Nick. For anyone who has experienced both, which do you think is better for that age? Also, is there a difference in the rooms, the concessions, the theming etc. between the 2 areas? TIA!

My kids (5, 6 and 71/2) liked the lagoon pool side better. It seemed to have more going on with the "Nick games" also. They liked the other side too, just preferred to spend more time a the lagoon pool. HTH. BTW on the lagoon side they have a pool bar and the kids loved getting non-alcoholic "slime time" drinks.

Thanks, I was leaning toward the Lagoon side, as it just looks bigger and a lot more to do. If the pool-side activities are all there, then it's a no-brainer. Of course, just because I request that side doesn't mean I'll get it, but it never hurts to ask.

We didn't request any special room (didn't know what to ask for!) and ended up with what I thought was a great room. It was on the lagoon side but faced the "lake". It was really quiet and we were close enough to everything. Hope that helps. Have a great time, my kids loved it.
