We knew that the pool attendant was going to pocket the 200.00 we gave him to use the pool (that's why it was cash!) but it seemed worth it at the time for our kids to have a day at a fun resort pool. It was still a little nerve-wracking to me because I figured there was still somewhat of a chance we could be kicked out. (We were staying at the Kaanapali Ali'i, which is nice, but has a smallish plain pool.) It's always a challenge for us to find a nice hotel with condo-type amenities plus big resort amenities as well.
