The pools at Circa are 3 feet 9 inches deep. While this may sound somewhat shallow, they are the perfect depth for standing or sitting in while holding an ice-cold drink.
Does Circa pool have lockers?
Circa pool has an area with lockers that are available to rent. If you are carrying any valuables, you’re worried about, this is the best place to store them. I couldn’t find a price to rent the lockers, but I’ve heard reports of Circa locker rentals costing upwards of $50 for the day.
Circa also has another option for storing your stuff that isn’t quite as secure but is better than leaving your things out on a chair.
In between each set of lounge chairs, there is a small table to set your drinks, book, etc. Underneath the table is a door that encloses a small storage area. It’s not lockable, but it’s better than leaving your valuables lying about in the open.
