Pool Hopping ?

[Tink3815]

We are diehard Disney fans thinking of trying Universal? How does the pool hopping work? Do you need to show your room key to get in to the hotels pools? Concerned about security as the hotels are in a much more tourist populated area than Disney hotels.
Thanks

The pool gates can only be opened with a hotel key.

You go to the front desk and show your hotel key and they will make you one for the pool gate (assuming you are trying to hop to another hotel’s pool).

You can pool hop at Universal?! Fascinating!!!
