After a tough winter across the US, the thought of lounging poolside on a warm spring day is almost enough to lift the cabin fever doldrums. Well, one thing is certain, the earlier you start getting pool-ready, the sooner you can throw that spring welcoming pool party! Here are a few handy tips to help make this year’s pool season stylish and fun along with recommendations for some of the best luxury hotel pool towels and quality spa robes to dry off, warm up and look great.

Ideas for a Perfect Pool Outing

Cleaning and prepping your pool for swimming is the first step, of course. If you’ve covered the pool, it’s relatively free of leaves and debris. Follow your pool cleaning routine and soon that bright blue pool is looking very inviting. All you need is to work up a few plans for the season. There are lots of ways to enjoy your pool time, of course. Kids and adults probably have totally different ideas about that. For a little extra pampering for your pool guests, consider a few creative ideas like:

colored aqua noodles for pool fun and exercise in blue swimming pool water

Romantic Pool Lighting – Since the night sky will still arrive in the early evening hours, you can quickly make beautiful DIY pool lights by slicing colorful pool noodles and inserting artificial tea lights into each. Light a path for walking or simply decorate the entire area with a random display of sparkling lights.

DIY Pool Warmers – Take advantage of the afternoon sun by making solar rings to keep the temperature of your pool more comfortable for evening hours. Wrap some hula-hoops with black plastic and place in the pool when not in use – the material will absorb the sun’s heat and transfer it to the water!

Tennis Ball Pool Skimmer – You can’t avoid cosmetics, oils, and sunscreen lotions from getting in the pool water, but you can minimize their accumulation by tossing in five or six tennis balls to act as a pool skimmer. The felt material will absorb a good amount of surface build-up in your pool, easing the workload of your pool filter.

Pool Tile Stain Remover – A natural way to clean the stains from your pool walls is to use baking soda mixed with water. This product is abrasive making it a good choice for hard-to-remove marks and stains – yet, it is non-toxic and harmless to your swimming guests.

Spa Music: Enjoy that last spa experience? Relaxing music is a big part of any spa visit. Get that same relaxing feeling anytime at your pool by installing a few outdoor speakers so you can play relaxing meditation music while you swim or sunbathe, or liven it up for a pool party.

Cell Phones: Avoid disaster by offering ziplock bags to everyone at the pool to secure their cell phone from accidental contact with water. For anyone planning on using their phone while floating on the water (yes, someone will), make sure it’s double-bagged, or you can stock up on waterproof cell phone carriers made specifically for use at pools or the beach.

And if summer has not quite yet arrived in your neck of the woods:

Star-Gazing Floats – If it’s a bit too chilly to allow the kids to take a dunk in the water, you can convert inexpensive, rectangular kiddie pools into floating rafts (with built-in side safety rails!) for an evening of awesome star gazing. Layer in a warm blanket and a couple of throw pillows for a spring pool watercraft.
