So cold in the leisure pool yesterday and for the past few weeks making it really uncomfortable especially for the disabled and children. The temperature Needs turning up!!! Lots to people saying the same thing. Such a shame as it’s such a lovely pool but will put people off going.

Absolutely disgusting pool. Visited yesterday for the first fine, and definitely won't be back. Couldn't find a single clean changing room. There was nappies, rubbish, hair, mud absolutely everywhere. Then once in the pool I kept getting covered in other people's hair. We lasted half hour and left!! Felt dirty!! Then on top of that my sunglasses got stollen, when asked staff about it the guy seemed uninterested but gave a quick look in a box and said no. Waste of money and won't be back again!

I am currently in the Adult Beginners level, and my instructor, Maggs, is wonderful 😊 She is enthusiastic, encouraging, and always keeps us motivated. She also brings a great sense of humour to the sessions — even if she sometimes gets our names wrong! 😄 I have been attending for six months, and Maggs has made the learning experience really enjoyable. She celebrates our small achievements as if we have won a gold medal, which makes us feel confident and proud of our progress 🏅.

The wellness suite is decent but I mainly come here for my beginners swimming lessons. I wasn't sure how long I would stick with them initially but having Maggs as my teacher makes me want to carry on and return week after week. She always pushes me to improve and I feel more confident after every lesson. She is great at explaining techniques and showing us useful drills, whilst keeping the lessons fun and engaging. You can tell she is really invested and cares about all her students. She is a credit to Cardiff International Pool.

Today, we had a fantastic visit to the Cardiff International Pool with my family and a friend's family. From the moment we arrived, the experience was seamless, starting with getting our entrance tickets and picking up some swimming essentials like goggles and swim caps from the well-stocked shop. The pool area was impressive, offering something for everyone. The highlight for the more experienced swimmers in our group was definitely the blue slide. It’s an exhilarating ride that drops you into a 2.5-meter-deep pool—perfect for those confident in the water. The red slide, on the other hand, was a big hit with everyone. It’s long and winding, offering a thrilling but safe ride, ideal for those who aren’t strong swimmers but still want a bit of excitement. For the younger kids, the orange and yellow slides were perfect. They’re shorter and designed with little ones in mind, though they do have height restrictions to ensure safety. The kids couldn’t get enough of them and kept going back for more. After all the fun, we took a break at the café. It’s a comfortable space with a good selection of snacks and drinks, perfect for recharging before heading back to the pool. Overall, it was a wonderful day filled with laughter, excitement, and great memories for both families.
