10 Awesome Pool Accessories For Adults
A swimming pool never loses its appeal even as we grow into adulthood. It’s still cool, relaxing, refreshing but has become a little less... fun.
This once very exciting part of your home becomes more of a place for kids (if you have them) though it seems unfair that kids have all these toys for the pool but none of that fun for the adults!
Fantastic Pool Accessories
The thing is, adult pools don’t need toys. They need accessories. And we’ve rounded up 10 of the most awesome pool accessories for you.
Floating Waterproof Pool Speakers
Gone are the days when you can’t bring the stereo near enough to the pool because it might get splashed by water, so, you just pumped up the volume of the speakers, to the great annoyance of your neighbours. Now, you can listen to your favourite party music right on the pool with floating waterproof pool speakers.
These pool accessories are wireless, enabling you to access your iTunes or Spotify playlists. They have different volume levels and a strong subwoofer that produces rich and crisp sound even in the outdoors. And because these floating pool speakers are completely waterproof, you are guaranteed of quality sound.
Available from Pool & Spa Warehouse for $89.00.
Pool Hammock
Do you want to just relax and float around while reading a book or drinking a cold one? Then an inflatable pool hammock is the right pool accessory for you. Measuring 27.5 inches by 54 inches, grownups will have no problem staying afloat because it can hold up to 250 pounds. This pool hammock float is made out of woven fabric, which will help you stay cool while out of the water. Easy to inflate and deflate, this is your perfect partner for a quick relaxation on your backyard pool.

Inflatable Flamingo drink holders + floating esky
Speaking of pool relaxation, one of the awesome pool accessories for adults is a floating drink holder. You can choose between an inflatable flamingo drink holder to hold a single drink, or a rainbow cloud drink holder, which is like a floating esky to a number of beverages. Come to think about, why not get both so everyone in the pool is happy. And don’t worry about dropping your Carlton Draught or Coke, because these floating holders are stable and designed not to tip over.

It’s called inflatable canopy sun lounge and it has exactly what you want. It has a comfortable backrest so you can sit comfortably, two built-in cup holders for drinks to keep you hydrated, and a detachable sunshade to keep those sunburns away. Now, that’s what we call luxury pool relaxation.
Inflatable Movie Screen
Remember Wet ‘n’ Wild’s Dive-In Movies? The Gold Coast waterpark used to have dive in movies during the summer months and were favourite for visitors. The waterpark no longer offers it, but you can have your own dive in movies on at your home pool with an inflatable movie screen.
The unit measures 12 feet by 11.5 feet, while the screen is 144 inches. It’s a perfect size for a whole pool party to watch Jaws or The Meg in Netflix.

One of the awesome pool accessories for adults was, perhaps, invented for 18 year olds and uni students. Reminisce the carefree version of yourself with a pool beer pong set. It comes with two scratch and tear resistant racks (10 cups each) and a handy cooler in the middle to store your drinks. Your aim will be truly tested too, as the racks are moving around compared to ordinary beer pong. When you’re done with the game, you can also use the racks as floating drink holders.
