We visited Venetian Pool on the very last day of our holiday in May 2012 and it made a memorable finale to our trip. As it was midweek, I was selfishly delighted that there were very few other people swimming so I nearly had the entire pool to myself! It is without a doubt the loveliest pool I've ever swum... More

We had a long wait for our flight after getting off the Carnival Imagination and wanted to do something cool and fun. We went swimming at this pool. It was $11.00 per person. It was beautiful. The springs are very cooling and my skin felt wonderful after my swim. Parking is free. It's a bargain. More

Needs upkeep and above all (believe this or not) a good pool maint. service to come in and get the algae off the sides of the pool. Drain it and refill it, and get some chlorine ion that pool! More

We were in Miami and decided to check this out while we were there. It was definitely worth the side trip. The pictures gave you a feel for "Old Florida.". The bathrooms and locker area were also very clean. It's definitely worth checking out once. More

This place is absolutely GORGEOUS! If there is a prettier pool on the earth, you'd have to prove it. Fresh water from underground, too. Don't miss it. Combine with the Biltmore down the street. More

I had been trying to get here for years but there was always something getting in the way - it was closed, under repairs, kids too young, etc. Finally, this was the trip when we could finally make it here. We LOVED it! What a beautiful oasis in Coral Gables. And just a few minutes earlier we had been eating... More
