Zwemschool Domburg – locatie Zwembad de Parel

Prima zwembad. Genoeg kleedkamers, douches. Vloeren relatief schoon. Ik snap de negatieve recensies niet. Kinderbadje is leuk incl. speelgoed om mee te spelen. Horeca wel flink aan de prijs. Ook opvallend dat halverwege de middag een deel van het bad (erg onduidelijk) wordt afgesloten voor zwemles. Personeel spreekt slecht tot geen Nederlands. Maar het grootste deel van de bezoekers ook niet… en liever dit dan geen personeel, zoals op veel andere plekken.

"Swimming pool" is written at the entrance. So you would expect that they are supporting parents which are letting their kid exercise swimming for 4 meters. You would be wrong. The youngest pool and attendant I've seen in my life insist on putting the floating belt around the kid. The kid having the "Seepferdchen" done does not count, the 130 cm deep water and two parents with one kid also does not matter, the point that with support is no way to learn swimming also is irrelevant for the young employee.

Of course the rules are written big and in three languages only after the gate which you can pass after you pay.

That's about the major complain of my first negative evaluation (76 positive evaluation until now)

Bonus points:
1. I was twice there and I did not see any possibility of swimming. Remember? This is a swimming pool!
2. The trainers of the swimming class decide as they want if the area of training has to be doubled for offering extra attention to one of the 10 kids which are taking lessons. And this in a crowded day.
3. You need a 20 cent coin to lock your stuff. Actually more, because many of the lockers are not working and they do not return the coin. Of course you can ask for help. But I had enough of interaction with them.
