Heated Pool October?

Hi all. Not stayed in a Villa before and not sure if there's a need to heat the pool in mid October in Orlando? Also do Villas booked with Virgin charge extra for this? There was no option when booked.

Advices appreciated

Thanks

We recommend pool heat from October until April to get full use of the pool especially if you want to use it in the mornings and after you return from the parks.

I would definitely have it, but you may be talking a lot of money if it's through Virgin

Fatboytez - you are buying your own pool blanket - WOW

Just because there is no cover does not mean they do not use 'liquid cover' to retain heat. I saves all the mucking around with a pool cover.
Check with the villa owner first.

We always go in October and we always have pool heating, ideal for those early morning dips for the day after it has been raining/overcast.

Our favourite Dibb villa owner swapped from a blanket to a liquid cover a couple of years ago, the liquid blanket is very effective at keeping the heat in and we haven't notice any debris in the pool. Its so much easier when getting in and out of the pool with not having to mess with covers
