From day one we had issues with the pool. We spent at least an hour every morning cleaning the pool of leaves (the trees above the pool do not help) and bugs etc. We also had an issue with the Chemicals. The pool was very cloudy when we arrived . As we have our own hot tub we were able use the dip test and read the chemical levels which were dangerously low in PH, therefor the Chlorine was not working causing Algi and other buildup. The Chap who came to sort the pool was lovely and really helpful. However, whilst a cover would have eliminated the leaves and other debris problem, the main issue was the more technical. The skimmers kept loosing power and therefor the water was not moving fast enough through the filtration system. I backwashed the system several times during our stay and each time the water was very brown. This should only be needed to be done on monthly basis. I am a problem solver and wanted a clean pool everyday. However I didn't want to spend an hour each morning of my holiday getting it. Owners please spend some money and sort out the pumps, tank and filtration system. My youngest and myself both had rashes due to the pool on the 1st day but luckily knew what to do as we knew the cause. Other holiday makers may not be so lucky.
