[gcarbone]

Does anyone know if the Sheraton Vistana Village or Resort have a pool with a slide? Thanks

I haven't seen it but I seem to remember reading it is not something fancy at SVR. No running water, just a tube slide, better for young kids. Can anyone confirm?

Yes, the main Vistana resort has one pool with a slide located near the Falls section. It is an enclosed tube slide that winds around a sort of rock formation. This is actually one of the smaller pools on property.
Edited to add : my kids were about 8, 10 and 13 when they last went on it. I wouldn't think it was good for kids under 5 ?

The VV does not have a pool slide. Yes, it's the Falls pool at the Vistana Resort with the winding, enclosed tube slide. DS says it has water that is fed inside the slide. The Falls is my DS's favorite pool and I like that it's easy to keep an eye on him since the pool area is smaller. My son first went on it when he was 4 and loved it. I went down it once. Not very comfortable for adults because of the bend.

Thanks TTFN3. I know I said under 5 might not be good but I didn't have much experience with this. When my kids were smaller, the slide was actually very different at the Falls pool. It was more like the one at the WL if anyone is familiar with that. The enclosed tube was added later. This new slide has a bit more of a thrill factor compared to the original one.

My 6 year old twins where covered in bruises on both their arms after playing on this. They had so much fun. They could easily swim to the side of the pool and get out by themselves. Only downfall was the bruises the next day.

Just to confirm again that Vistana has a tube slide at the Falls Pool. My grandkids 10 and 7 loved it in Feb this year. They do also love to swim under falls at Fountains. That is one of the many great things at Vistana. So many pools with different features, and many other things to do. Our favorite resort
