- Limited Change rooms, showers and lockers will be available but please come ready to swim to minimize traffic in the change rooms
- Follow all one way and directional signage
- Enter through the East doors and check in at guest services counter
- Public swim times are staggered by 30 minutes to allow for full disinfection of high touch points on the pool deck and change rooms between bookings. Please exit the pool promptly when your booked timeslot is finished to allow us time to disinfect before the next booking. Change rooms must be vacated 15 minutes after the booking end time.
- You are encouraged to bring your own equipment, as Vivo will not be providing any pool toys. All equipment must be rinsed before being taken in the pool. Lifejackets, dumbbells and Aquafit belts will be available upon request and sanitized between each use.
