Insider tips

Be aware that the locker room is small and does not have lockers; plan to keep your belongings close or consider alternative storage for valuables.
If visiting before the main Lomas entrance reopens, be prepared to use the access route by the south side of Sonic drive-in.
Consider visiting during off-peak times or seasons if you want to avoid crowds, as it is 'always crowded in the summertime'.
If you have very young children who relied on a specific outdoor wading pool feature, be aware that it is no longer available and the new indoor pool may not have an exact replacement.

Serious or competitive lap swimmers who prefer cooler water for intense training.
Families with toddlers who are specifically looking for an outdoor kids' wading pool.
Visiting during peak summertime if you are sensitive to crowded conditions.

The locker room is small and notably lacks individual lockers, requiring visitors to keep belongings with them or secure them elsewhere.

"First time going to Los Altos after their remodel. It is so different from the original pool. It seemed nice. Dressing rooms were clean. The water was a good temperature and clean. Parking was good. The access was driving by the south side of Sonic drive-in, until the Lomas entrance is reopened."

"I really like the newly remodeled building for the pool. Although my son misses the kids wagging pool that was outside, the inside of the new building is much improved. The changing room really needed with and is now vastly improved. I wish only that the pool has been enlarged a bit as this pool is always crowded in the summertime."
