About
Swimming pool offering lessons and water polo training, plus seating for viewing.
The main 25-yard competition pool at the Curtis Aquatic Center is typically maintained at temperatures between 80-82°F (26.7-27.8°C). The smaller warm-water instructional pool is kept warmer, generally around 88-90°F (31.1-32.2°C).
What are people saying (AI review summary)? The facility is generally well-regarded, particularly for its Olympic-size pool and suitability for various events like children's birthday parties, swim practices, and competitive meets. Positive aspects include private pool access, availability of lifeguards, a dedicated party room, and ample viewing seating. Reviewers also appreciate the inclusive environment, with staff offering accessibility options for disabled guests, and its location in a nice neighborhood within University Place. However, a significant recurring complaint is the consistently hot temperature in the viewing stands/balcony area, often reaching 80 degrees Fahrenheit or more, even on cold days. Parking, while generally adequate, can also become crowded during simultaneous school events.

We actually came here for an event on a snowy day, and the stands were crazy hot, the staff has the doors open trying to cool it but it was at least 80 degrees in the balcony viewing area. Update! That was a cool day, it's hotter every time I come. Wear shorts and flip flops year round for this.

We held our grandsons 6th Birthday party here. It was great. Private access to the pool, lifeguards and a room for the party. We all had fun in the pool. Now, I'm disabled and they offered to set up stairs or a lifts so I could join also. They were awesome. Thank you.

Our son practices with UPAC swimming and its a great facility. There is plenty of seating on the upper level for viewing. Parking is adequate, but if there is a school event going on simultaneously it can get a bit crowded. Nice neigborhood also.
