Do you have a swimming pool?
'Piscina' — stress the second syllable: 'pi-SCI-na'. The SC before I makes a 'sh' sound.
Use when booking a summer holiday to confirm pool availability. Important for family stays and summer resort bookings.
'Avete la piscina' — uses the definite article 'la' because the pool is a specific, expected facility. This is more specific than 'avete una piscina' (do you have a pool) — the 'la' implies you are expecting one.
La piscina è coperta o all'aperto?
Is the pool indoors or outdoors?
Distinguishes between indoor and outdoor pool
La piscina ha il riscaldamento?
Is the pool heated?
Important for shoulder season trips
C'è anche la piscina per i bambini?
Is there also a children's pool?
For family trips
Pool safety regulations in Italy require a licensed lifeguard (bagnino) to be present at all hotel pools during opening hours. 'Piscina olimpionica' technically means Olympic-sized (50m), but in common Italian hotel parlance it simply means a large pool. Always ask about opening hours — Italian pools are not always open 24 hours.
