Where should bathrooms be located in relation to the pool?

Bathrooms should be located adjacent to the pool deck to ensure accessibility and convenience for swimmers and pool users. This location allows for easy and quick access to restroom facilities, especially important in maintaining hygiene and providing comfort. When bathrooms are conveniently situated close to the pool, it encourages patrons to use them after swimming, which helps prevent contamination of the pool water and promotes a cleaner environment for everyone.

In contrast, bathrooms located across the street or on a separate floor or building could hinder access, leading to delays in restroom usage. This could result in users opting to leave the pool area rather than taking the extra time and effort to reach facilities that are not easily accessible. Ensuring that bathrooms are nearby is a key consideration in pool design and user experience.
