best neighbourhood pools
 
Like some comments about your favorite pools. Saddlebrook looks very nice, Summerhill is also nice but needed upgrading a bit last time we were here..

Did I hear someone say, "pool"? Indoor?? :icon_wink:

Well, my goal....once I'm there for longer periods of time...is to go to every pool in TV.....and I will rate them.

For now, I zip down the street and use St. James pool...which is nice...or Sterling Heights....or Seabreeze for serious lap swim.

But.....I love to go over to Tamarind Grove. It is so pretty over there...and I love the ambiance.

So my fav right now is Tamarind Grove....for not so serious swimming.
And Seabreeze for lap swim.

The Poinciana pool is best for AM swimming, faces East when the sun is rising and never to crowded.

This is a GREAT question! Can't wait to read everyone's opinions.

Even tho it's "far" from my house I love Seabreeze for lap swimming. Saddlebrook is nice for just hanging out in the water and Orange Blossom is the best for hanging out with grandkids, the waterfall is cool and the jacuzzi is hot. I have to say that Savannah is great for lap swimmming mid day, hardly anyone there. Heck they're all wonderful!

I love our pool in Tamarind Grove. Unbelievably beautiful setting!!!!

As others have already stated, Tamarind Grove certainly is a unique location with all the trees, etc. That's our favorite as far as ambiance goes.

saddlebrook/summerhill. check out the nearest family pool ( maybe two north of 466 but neither is not close to summerhill) or sports pool (hmm maybe south of 466). then check out the newer villages, we hv three pools, family, sport and neighborhood all within an 1/8 to 1/4 of a mile, not to mention a whole bunch of great exec golf courses... IMO and others everything the developer did got better as he went south. I guess south of 466A may be unbelievable.

I have to agree Tamarind Grove....just a beautiful setting.

Ditto on Tamaraind Grove - beautiful.

Beautiful view from the Amelia pool.

Our village doesn't have a pool because there are only 53 homes. I am trying to figure out which pool is closest to Laurel Valley.

No we are renting in Alhambra and Saddlebrook is the closest adult pool apparently and it is a distance by golf cart. El Santiago is not that far at all but not the nicest family pool. We have rented in Summerhill so were spoiled with the pool around the corner and Pimlico not far either.
