The pools at Paradisus Grand Cana
The main pool is 71 meters long and 13 meters wide. The resort also has six rear-garden suite pools that measure 61 meters by 5 meters, and six front-garden suite pools that are 53 meters long.
The 71-meter and 61-meter pools all appear to have staircase entries at either end. The 53-meter (175-foot) pools do not, but they are built in connected pairs. A swimmer who does not mind a small course adjustment in the middle can stretch a single lap to about 360 feet, or roughly 110 meters.
A note on access
We are not sure that the garden suite pools are open to everyone staying at the resort, so for now they appear in the listing notes rather than as pools. We intend to contact the resort to find out, and we will update the listing if we hear back.
