Esther Williams Swimming Pool
For something different, something to cool you off, visit our iconic Esther Williams Swimming Pool named after the actress and competitive swimmer who starred in the 1947 movie, “This Time for Keeps,” filmed at Grand Hotel.
The Pool offers poolside cabanas, a family-friendly area complete with a zero-depth beach entry, water-jet play area and water slide, large heated whirlpool, and a private adults-only area featuring a separate infinity-edge pool and magnificent views.
The Pool Bar is open for beverages through the end of the season — the perfect place to relax and sip poolside. While the full lunch menu is no longer available, guests can still enjoy a selection of menu items right at the pool. Cheers to making the most of the season!
