What kind of refurb at the Poly quiet pool?

[MountainMouse]

Can anyone tell me details or rumors of details on the quiet pool refurb? As this pool is next to PVB I would like to know if the refurb will add anything major...kids play area? Or is the intent to still keep this as a "quiet pool"? Would love to see something like the pool next to VGF.

When I toured PVB last week the guide said they hadn't even been told if a pool would be going back in. Lol

I haven't had any success finding my source material on the plans for the Poly's quiet pool, aka the East Pool. But from what I remember, Disney was totally redoing the East Pool. The shape of the pool was changing, as was the pool deck. However, there were no plans for a water slide. Disney was also adding a grill that will serve hamburgers, sandwiches, etc., and an outdoor bar, which might be similar to the grill & bar Disney added to SSR's Paddock Pool. I don't remember if Disney was adding a kids' splash area or a water play area, such as was added at Wilderness Lodge last year.

You can look at posts on Tikiman's website but I don't recall ever seeing any mention of a kids play area-since they already put in a pretty extensive one at the main pool I wouldn't think so. He mentioned a grill and bar and a redesigned pool/pool deck.

I looked at Tikiman's site, but didn't find any details on design.

From tikimanpages.com

"July 2015
July 13 The East pool will close for major renovations. The pool area will be completely taken out and redesigned with a new pool, hot tub, bar and grill. Completion of this area will be Spring 2016."

No mention of an additional kids splash area-obviously he may not know but since Disney just constructed the elaborate one at the main pool (and the only added capacity to the resort is the bungalows since they converted old hotel rooms) I wouldn't expect it there too.
