The start was good. The reception staff told about pools to use as it was my daughter’s first time. We were told to use paddle pool and plash area. My daughter wanted a toy to play with. So went and asked the lifeguard to use the noodle to swim. As soon as she came over to paddle pool area as lifeguard old lady came over and took it away saying you can't play with that. As it might break. There were others in the pool playing with noodles but did not say anything. Not happy with her behavior. Also no signs are there to say you can't play with them. Then another thing. They should place age limit for pools there were 2 boys in paddle pool that were taking over the whole area, and they were not the age for it. Were having wrestling no one came n told them to move to correct pool. The toddlers could not use the pool until they left.nnWas thinking of sending my daughter here for swimming lessons but changing my mind now. Horrible and pathetic service.
It was really cool and I loved it when I went swimming with my nana and auntie. The lifeguards were kind. I was allowed to do cannonballs. I played on the floating platform. It was nice and warm. Ashyr 6years old.
Wow, this is a great pool. The water quality is very good, clear water. Good lane space for swimming laps. Really nice facility. Warmer separate pools for the young kids and group exercise class. Very impressed with the facility.
Good pool facility. Unfortunately does not have a sauna, steam room, spa or tube slide for extra aquatic leisure and fun.nOpen 'locker ' or cubby freely available with lockable ones accessed with a key after paying a bond and hire fee.nLifeguards patrol all pools and swimming lessons are well supported.nThere is a resident swimming club with instructors as well as fitness classes in pirates, 'aquarobics' - aerobics classes in the pool, spin classes on purpose-built bicycles in the pool.
Wonderful facility, Stratford can rightly be proud. Staff are all great. I have to say the lifeguards are all doing a great job. Especially the one I have seen named and supposedly shamed. I was witness to the incident with the babies. I was a bit gobsmacked with the adults lying them on one of the floats and no one holding them. In defense of the lifeguard, her job is to be watching what is going on in the water, she is rightly serious about pool safety. Great swimming and fitness instructors, I'll be making the most of the facility.
