Pool Information: Parrot Tree does have a large in-ground community pool in the development. It is about a ten-minute walk from the hill-side home and about a two to three-minute car ride. The pool is one of the largest pools on the island and the landscaping and vegetation are maintained, however the pool needs some repairs, but it is operational. If you are planning to visit the pool, please be aware that there is no life guard on duty and while the pool water is treated, the pumps are usually operated between sunrise and around 5pm each day. Guests will notice the pool tiles are starting to detach from the pool surface and the community is looking into options to repair the pool. Also, guests will notice the pool is lightly attended at times. If you visit the pool you may encounter a few guests or you may have the pool completely to yourself. Some guests prefer the seclusion the pool offers while other may prefer a more active setting offered by a fully operational resort. As noted previously, Parrot Tree is not currently a fully functioning, or fully operational resort. Also, if you do plan to visit the pool, please remember to bring bug spray to help your visit to be more enjoyable. The proximity to the beach and variation of trade winds can impact the level of insects.
Parrot Tree is also a short distance from a number of animal sanctuaries, where you can feed and hold Sloth bears!
