Very clean, helpful staff, kid (under 6 years) was a good size and lots of toys available to use. It's a new facility and very well planned. Nice spa areas, summer fun with kids. But bizarre you can not have a membership with sauna included like EVERYWHERE else… plus the biggest problem is hygiene.. the floors are always filthy and cabins the small, dirt and hair everywhere. Not a staffing issue as there is a member of staff walking round looking at stuff… Reading the often negative comments about dirty floors etc, we were extremely surprised to find this to be one of the absolute cleanest swimming pools we have ever seen! You have to take off shoes and socks to wade through shallow water before reaching the changing rooms. The lockers are easy (with code, no annoying wristband-keys). Then mandatory showers and another foot-wading. The pools, no surprise, are spotless. The ladies at the front are friendly, but the life guards do indeed appear a bit apathic, so keep an eye on your own kids. And there are people having fun, some with balls, as there are in every pool. Nothing noteworthy. The price is very reasonable, there is a fun outside wet area for (little) kids and a good lawn for sun lovers (can't beat that view!). Inside is a warm kiddy pool, with bubbles here and there. An area for babies, a regular temperature and a big with lanes for swimming laps. There are indeed sometimes lessons in progress, in a corner of the big pool. Didn't bother anyone. Only thing lacking are maybe some more fun things, like a big slide or a track with current. All in all, this is a very good pool! Maybe new management took over since all the previous negative comments?? HOWEVER, one big WARNING for non-french visitors: men (and boys) can only wear tight swimwear! That is indeed absolutely stupid, and has no actual practical reason whatsoever (everybody says hygiene, but nobody knows exactly why), but it's a standard rule in every swimming in France. They must be very weird swimmers... or really like tight things. Anyway, simply buy some tight swim shorts (only 3-5 euros in the Carrefour a little up the road, they have easy fitting ones that are sold in a sachet for some reason), ignore how you look and have a nice swim! Dropped in for a swim and am so glad I did! Super clean sauna, showers & deck and the water quality & temperature was perfect 👌shout out to the kind front desk lady & lifeguards for their smile and kindness! 🏊‍♂️ oh.. and THAT VIEW 😍😍😍😍 Excellent swimming pools, a small pataugeoire for kids under 6 with a little slide and some jet d'eau. A second (approx 20 meters in length) 1m20 deep used for aqua spin when we arrived but also available for public use once the activity was finished. A third also approx 20meters in length starting at 0.8meters and sloping to 1.20 with seating area which had Jacuzzi jets and a few other jets around the - this was a much warmer than the second one described. A fourth for lengths. Really clean changing rooms with lockers (no padlock / change needed), under 5's swim free. No time slot or requirement to book in advance when we visited (April time). Highly recommend visiting with kids!! They became very angry when we asked if we can put on normal swimming shorts. They also are very stubborn to non-fremch people/tourists Very impolite and stubborn staff, only nice if you are french Verry impolite to tourists.
