Are Disney All Star Resort pools heated?

Yes, all the Walt Disney World Resort pools are heated. As for Pool Hopping, the general answer is no, you can't. There are a few exceptions. Pool Hopping is allowed between All-Star Resort pools. So, if you are a Guest at All-Star Movies Resort and wanted to swim at another All-Star Resort pool, you can.



Yes, all pools at the Disney All-Star Movies, Music, and Sports Resorts are professionally heated to approximately 28°C (82°F) year-round. This temperature is maintained regardless of the season, ensuring that guests can enjoy a swim even during the cooler Florida winter months when air temperatures might dip into the 50s or 60s. Each resort features a large "feature pool" with elaborate theming (like the Calypso Pool at Music or the Fantasia Pool at Movies) and a smaller, more relaxed "leisure pool." While the water is warm, the walk back to the room can be quite chilly in the winter, so it is a common "pro-tip" to bring a thick robe or extra towels. It is important to note that during rare periods of extreme cold or during scheduled maintenance, Disney may temporarily close the pools for safety. Additionally, while the pools are heated, they do not feature hot tubs or "jacuzzis," which are amenities typically reserved for Disney’s Moderate and Deluxe level resorts rather than the Value-tier All-Star properties.
