Reserve your spot

Due to the restricted capacity we must adhere to at the pool, reservations of pool space must be done ahead of time to allow for access. Starting May 30, reservations can be made online via the Amilia platform.

To ensure that reservations are fairly distributed, Lap swim times will have limited reservations: 1 reservation per day per family with a maximum of 4 per week and reservations can be made up to a week in advance. If space allows, walks ins are allowed that do not count against your reservation cap. Pool access is limited to Montreal West residents only, dual pieces of ID may be required to confirm residency. Non-residence found registering will be subject to a 45 $ refund administration fee.

In order to help us keep track of patrons coming to the pool, please make a reservation that includes every member of the family that will be attending family swim times. Although we will do our best to guarantee space for additional family members as walk-ins, we can only guarantee a spot for those who have actually made a reservation. 

Reservations will be made in 55 minute blocks. Each block will allow for 45 minutes of swimming and 10 minutes for the pool staff to exit and enter new patrons and sanitize all the necessary equipment and surfaces.

No refunds will be issued for cancellations or missed reservations. Credits will be issued if the pool is forced to close due to inclement weather, malfunctions or other situations out of our control, bit only for the pay as you go fee structure.
