Disney World is known for its over-the-top theming at its parks, but also at its resorts –especially the swimming pools!

So when you book your trip to Disney World, we’ve got some information you need to know if a pool day is in your plans!
Disney World typically closes its pools to refurbish and maintain them every few years. If you’re vacationing at Disney World in 2023, here are the planned pool closures you need to know about!

While the pool is still open, the water slide at the Lava Pool is closed at this time.

Saratoga Springs Resort
The High Rock Springs Pool, On the Rocks Pool Bar, and the leisure pool at Treehouse Villas are currently closed for refurbishment. That sounds like a lot, we know.

Not to worry, though — Saratoga Springs has FIVE pools on the resort property! Disney is providing a shuttle to transport you to a nearby pool if the one closest to you is closed. The pool work is supposed to be completed by the end of March 2023.
