Anyone had a swim up room on holiday?

I would've thought a lot depends on where you are. Did an upgrade in the maldives to a villa on stilts along with a glass lounge floor. Worthwhile it for a couple of nights, but 7k for 10 nights would have been a waste.0

No based on ones seen in Mexico - not vfm in my opinion.0

Had one in the First Choice Holiday Village Rhodes and it was realy good0

Agree with BB. Had one for my honeymoon in Mexico and we didnt really use it as the main pool was so nice0

Got a free upgrade to one on honeymoon in Jamaica,very nice laying on the sunbed with the pool lapping round but wouldnt personally pay for one,especially if,like us,you are all inclusive. Its a bit difficult for the waiters to get to you and a pain for you to get the bar as you are swimming across then trying to get your rum punchs back again
We didnt use the swim up as much as we couldve done,very nice for a couple of days though. 0 -
Must be a bugger getting your luggage in...

For a couple of nights, then the novelty wears off and it becomes a pain in the palarse0

The water bungalows like you get in the Maldives are magnificent. Got upgraded to one for our last four nights there and it turned an average holiday into a brilliant holiday - not so much because of being able to swim out from your room but because of the sea creatures casually swimming past. Not a wildlife enthusiast at all, but basking sharks, manta rays and various multicoloured fish were pretty impressive. Can't say I'd be that bothered by a private pool - would be nice, but not worth the several hundred quid that it will no doubt add to the cost of the holiday.0

How easy would it be for your littlun to get out there though?DA9 said:

uhmm, if you leave the doors open and go upstairs for a kip any bugger can swim along, up onto the decking and nick your gear. Not very secure is it?0

Theres a simple answer to that, dont go for a kip without locking doors :-)LargeAddick said:uhmm, if you leave the doors open and go upstairs for a kip any bugger can swim along, up onto the decking and nick your gear. Not very secure is it?

IF you can afford it go to Rhodes - it's their flagship Holiday Village. BEen there and the one in Turkey but Rhodes was much nicer tbh.DA9 said:

Had a water bungalow in MAldives and it was brilliant. Totally unnecessary and very expensive but we also had an outdoor shower and jacuzzi.

LOL, I assume the entrances to both floors are around the front, the rear swim up area is affetively your terrace/balcony without a fence.Karim_myBagheri said:
