Sqoop Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 I like to swim for exercise and I wondered which Pattaya / Jom Tien / other (?) condo's had good pools for swimming lengths. I mean 25m plus. It doesnt have to be a lane pool but just sufficiently long. Just looking for local knowledge. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scubascuba3 Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Pattaya Plaza, Sukhumvit top of Klang has a big pool, looks ideal for swimming, but an old style condo, pool seems to be the best thing about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Peterw42 Posted November 20, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 20, 2021 90% of Pattaya/Jomtien condos have pools, some of the big complexes have 3-4. The Big garden type condo complex's in Jomtien (2-3 buildings with gardens, central pools etc) will probably have bigger pools and more of them, and depending on the season/time of day etc, you can pretty much have them to yourself. Work out where you want to live first, chances are it will have a big pool. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Teavee Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 (edited) Laguna 3 Maldives has a huge pool + another one that goes all the way around it where you could swim laps. Not a great location though so would recommend having your own transport Edited November 20, 2021 by Mike Teavee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sqoop Posted November 20, 2021 Author Share Posted November 20, 2021 Arcadia properties sent me an email which seems quite good, and the pool seems big in the pictures. It seems that booking.com must take quite a cut because it is much cheaper to go direct. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

View Talay 3 and VT 7 have smaller pools. One thing to keep in mind in normal times is the size of the pool linked with the number of units in the project. VT5C and 5D are both big projects and have almost 1000 units each, with one pool each. The pools are fairly large, but so are the number of units. Compare that to Riviera Jomtien. Also around 1000 units but it has 3 pools, including a large ground floor lagoon pool. I lived at 5C and 5D some years ago and at times the pools could seem crowded with the large number of residents, but likely not a problem right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This brings up a good point. A lot of condo pools that look large often taper to shallow 1m. and less depths for a large area. The pool in my condo complex: the venerable Jomtien Beach Condominium has a large pool but at least half, one full side is under a meter or less depth and nearly impossible for swimming laps. Also, the water at the shallow areas gets noticeably hotter, often uncomfortably so on hot afternoons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I visited a friend there only recently and it was quiet (midweek), so a lap swimmer should be good to go. He seemed to think a lot of units in the buildings were empty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
