Four pools, one neighborhood
The private pool at the cottage and the three more pools in Destin Pointe, plus the splash pad and hot tub. Where they are and the rules worth knowing.
Most beach houses have a pool or are near one. Here you get both: a private pool at the house, and three more in the neighborhood.
The private pool, at the house
Your own pool sits on the lake, below the decks, with loungers along the fence and the porch above. From October through May the pool is heated for a fee of $250 per stay, to a maximum of 88 degrees under Florida rules. In summer it needs no heating.
Pool #2: the beach club pool
Next to the private Gulf beach access, at the end of the walk to the beach. It is the one labeled Pool #2 on our walk map, and the natural place to cool off between swims in the Gulf.
The community pool with the hot tub
The community pool has a hot tub alongside it, which is welcome on cooler winter evenings.
The infinity pool
The third neighborhood pool is the infinity pool.
The splash pad
Destin Pointe also has a kids splash pad, for little ones who are not ready for the deep end.
Rules worth knowing
- The community pools are unguarded. An adult must supervise children under 10.
- No glass, food or drink at the community pools.
- The pools are for the guests staying at the house, up to 12; please do not invite others.
