With our Hero Station meet and greet scheduled for 10 am, we decided to make the most of our time by enjoying the heated indoor pool. While the outdoor section was closed off during the winter months, the indoor area was okay. The pool is a standard rectangular swimming pool, nothing special, but we still enjoyed our morning and the touch of relaxation in the hot tub.
Nantucket Pool, Newport Bay Club
Newport Bay Club is one of the most popular and the largest hotel at Disneyland Paris, and offers a large indoor and outdoor pool.

Personal Experience: We last stayed at the Newport Bay Club in October 2023, and only experienced the indoor pool area. The theming of the pool is amazing, and the boat adds to the setting. One thing that was off-putting for us was that the pool building didn’t feature frosted glass, so guests walking up at the side of Lake Disney to the hotel could look directly into the area.
Quarry Pool, Sequoia Lodge

Personal Experience: We recently visited the Sequoia Lodge Hotel in March 2024 with the family. As we enjoyed extra magic time in the park, the family enjoyed a bit of downtime in the pools. When we met for lunch, they shared stories of the swimming pools waterfalls, and slide, so much so, we did it all together again as a family the next day! It’s a great swimming pool, and as the hotel is so close to the parks, we found we were the only guests in the pool, and the lifeguard only turned the water slide on as we entered the pool.

Personal Experience: We stayed at Davy Crockett Ranch in the summer of 2023. This is often the cheapest Disney accommodation at Disneyland Paris, but the resort has some of the best activities and facilities including a full kitchen and living area in your very own cabin! In our opinion, this is the best swimming pool at Disneyland Paris! It was busier than other pools, maybe because the hotel is off-site guests plan to have a resort day, but the pool area is large with many hidden coves and great for kids to play, whilst still providing a relaxing space for adults!
