If you want to have a good time at a pool, here's a way. It is Disney, but free. Go to downtown Disney. Take the Port Orleans boat to the French Quarter. There is a pool with a dragon slide right there. It is a hotel pool, but no one will hassle you. If you get bored there, get back on the boat to Dixie Landing where there is bigger pool but the slide is ordinary.

They expect folks to hang around the pool on getaway days, so you will fit right in.
