Lastly, typically with a lifeguard on duty.

Here, the term means nothing. Sales pitch garbage words.
There are "resort style" pools that are round or square; with walk in gradients or steps. Little shade if any, with chairs and lounges. Food service is an overpriced soda vending machine. None of the other things that one finds in a resort. Why??? those things cost a few pennies more.

Good informative post.
