If you’ve ever had the pleasure of staying at Disney’s Old Key West Resort, you would have hopefully had the experience of dipping your toes into one of the pools on the property.

Every pool on the property is an all-ages pool, and each pool area has a whirlpool spa. Depending on which area your room is located in, some pools will be closer than others! Let’s take a further look and dive in!

I will start with our three leisure pools; the first one is located in the Old Turtle Pond Road area. You can sit back by the pool, play some shuffleboard, barbeque, or even enjoy something to eat from the Turtle Shack Poolside Snacks: Snack Bar. If you have kids with you and are looking for a fun play area, there is a great playground close to this pool for kids to enjoy!
