POR Quiet Pools

Which quiet pools are nicer AB or MB?

I've only been to the Mansion pools, but I think they're all just basic swimming pools. The area around the pools is nicely landscaped and there are plenty of chairs. I liked the change from the themed pool; while it's not always that "quiet" it is a bit less hectic than Ol Man Island and you get more of a chance to chat with the other people there.

Mansions seem more formal, squared off and open.
AB seem more relaxed, free form and lushly landscaped.

Look here and there are a few photos of each http://www.yourmagicaljourneys.com/Resorts/POR.htm

I personally like the AB quiet pools better. They are freeform (like HopperFan mentioned), and seem moer tranquil and laid back. The pools at MB are essentially a rectangular pool that (to me) feels like any public pool. I've never really seen any of the quiet pools crowded though, so they are all nice.

The only thing we DIDN"T like about the quiet pool in AB, is that they aren't heated. It felt good, but you had to get used to the water, and it was a bit of a shock when you first went in. Other than that the one in AB is great!

Are the quiet pools in the Mansions section heated? I'm curious because I'll be there in December and would really like a heated pool then, I bet.

I'm surprised. When we were there 08/03, the quiet pool behind our building -- 18 -- was definitely heated. I loved going for midnight swims there.

Kungaloosh!
