Just planned a trip in June -- staying 5 nights for the price of three at HRH! Since we will have lots of time I was wondering if pool hopping to the other resorts is allowed? Do any of them have slides or unique features? Thanks!:)
 
Yes pool hopping is allowed. The homies will be able to tell you about each pool. Just wait, they will be here soon!
 
Yes I think they have always allowed this...

In all our stays i never went to the other resort pools, although i stayed at PBH as well as RPR, the PBH and HRH both have slides, PBH also has a Villa pool which is lovely and a hillside pool , not so big on the far side of the resort.
We usually just stay at the RPR, as its nice and relaxing. heres a video of the pool i took with my camera in July.

 

you have 3 pools at PBH.
they have a slide on the large pool.


at HRH, a very good and fun slide.
zero entrance and under water speakers.
can't escape from the music there.
i do know there are many games the life guards do around the pool at hrh.

rpbert has a nice video of the pool at rph.
they do a nice game of water ball over a volley ball net there.
everyone is encouraged to join in.
no slide at rph though.


pool hopping is a nice way to check out the hotels.
all have beverage and food service for anyone sitting around the pool area.
the snack/food/beverage area at hrh is over on the side of the pool where the slide is located. i think the food area at rph is set up better than hrh's.

the pools have water toys for kids to play with.
and, sometimes you can find water toys left by guests when they leave the hotel. those water toys can be used by anyone.

there is a bath/pool room at hrh on the corner of the building.
guests that are pool hopping or guests at the hotel, can change there.

towels are issues at all the pools.
you do not need to take towels from your room with you.
 
Thanks for all the great info! I ended up changing my ressie from RP to HR!:cool1:
We have stayed at RP before and it is about $160 more for the 5 nights to move to the HR. I think my kids, DD14 and DS11 will love it! I like to try different hotels and since the HR and PB appear to be in the same area I am thinking it will be easier to go over and enjoy PB too. Are they within easy walking distance of each other?
 
We pool hop to the PBH when staying at RPR or HRH. I think its a great perk of staying on site. I love the jacuzzis at PBH !
 
On our annual April vacation (my wifes B-Day present)We stay for 4 days and dedicate one of them just too resort-pool hop!!
Like the other OP stated HRH has music all around you and PB pools are awesome but we always wind back up at the RPR for the dive-in-movie..
Try doing water volleyball with a few drinks in ya-way too fun:lmao:
