Summary of reviews related to the 'Pool' categoryHôtel Valdys Thalasso & Spa - l'Escale marine offers a pool that generally receives mixed reviews from its guests. The pool area, including the Thalasso and spa pools, is described as heated and well-maintained when accessible, making it a notable feature of the hotel. However, the pool's size is often criticized for being too small and overcrowded, likened to a public pool. The accessibility and associated costs are a common theme with guests frequently noting surprise or disappointment at the additional charges—often around €18 per person for access, even for short durations or when the pool was partially closed for renovations or maintenance.
Despite these issues, the proximity of the pool to the Thalassotherapy area is appreciated and some positive comments highlight the comfort of the heated saltwater pool. However, it appears that better clarity on pool access and associated fees could enhance the overall guest experience, as some visitors were unaware of the extra costs until arrival. While the facilities are promising, the value for money and transparency regarding the pool access could be areas for the hotel to improve upon to meet guests’ expectations better. Show more
