Rosen Aquatic & Fitness Center

Thjs is an awesome pool with a very reasonable drop-in rate. I swam here on a Monday morning in May, 2025, when traveling for work. I went at around 6 AM and it was set up long course for the first 30 minutes and then they switched it to short course. It was a little annoying to have to get out while they switched it, but luckily it didn't take too long and if you knew the schedule of switching, this would likely be easy to avoid. When it was short course there were tons of lanes and only about four people were in the whole pool. The locker rooms are decent, and you also have access to the gym, if you pay to come in for the day.

This is a fantastic pool. The water temperature in the 50-meter pool was 79.9ºF (26.6ºC) according to the digital display in the lobby. The pool is set up for short-course swimming on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and long-course swimming on Tuesday and Thursday (I’m not sure about the setup on Saturday, and it’s closed on Sunday). It wasn’t crowded at all when I was there from 5:45 – 7:15 AM for the three days I was there.

And at $5 drop-in this is a steal!

I swam here twice while in Orlando on business. I swam early - they open at 5 AM and go until 8 PM. The $5 visitor fee gives you two hours' access to the pool and gym. Most days the pool is set up for short-course (25-yards), but on Tuesday and Thursday they set up the pool for 50-meters with 8 lanes. If you are a visitor, you have to complete a registration process on your first day which takes about 10 minutes. It's a wonderful facility.

Terrific pool! I visited in mid-afternoon on a fall Friday when swim teams were practicing in the main pool. I swam in the adjacent training pool that was a bit warmer but still good for a nice workout.

This is a great facility with lots of open lanes. At $10.00, the price is steep but, as my wife said, "It's cheaper than a beer at Disney and you wouldn't hesitate to buy that." Just watch for the swim meets that close the center from time to time. Great staff and locker rooms.
