A swimming pool changes the shape of a camping trip. Instead of waiting for the campfire, the afternoon becomes the main event: check in, change, swim while the light goes golden, then eat and settle in for the night. If you are searching for camping with a swimming pool near Hyderabad, Ananthagiri Hills is the closest real option — 75–80 km, about two hours, and three of the four My Adventure Zone packages include pool access.
This guide compares the packages, explains the pool timings, and covers what to carry and what parents should know before booking.
Which Ananthagiri packages include a swimming pool
| Package | Rate per person | Pool access | Pool type | Meals |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ananthagiri Hills Camping | ₹1,399 | Yes | Shared campsite pool | Tea, dinner, breakfast |
| Night Camping | ₹1,500 | Yes | Shared campsite pool | Tea, dinner, breakfast |
| Farm House Stay | ₹1,000 | Yes | Private pool | Not included |
| Luxury Lakeside Camping | ₹1,799 | No | — | Hi-tea, dinner, breakfast |
The pool is part of the package, not a separate ticket. You do not pay extra to swim, and you do not need a day pass.
Pool timings and how the evening works
Flagship package — pool from 5:00 PM to 8:30 PM
Check-in starts at 4:00 PM, which gives you time to settle into the tent before the pool slot. The pool is open from 5:00 PM to 8:30 PM. Evening tea and snacks are served around 5:00–6:00 PM, so most people swim first, then eat, then change for dinner. The dinner buffet runs from 8:30 PM to 10:00 PM, and the campsite gates close at 10:00 PM.
Night camping — pool, then DJ and campfire
Night camping follows the same afternoon start: check in at 4:00 PM, pool at 5:00 PM, tea and snacks around 6:00 PM, dinner at 9:30 PM, DJ music at 10:30 PM, and the common campfire at 11:50 PM. It is the package for groups that want the pool and the late-night music in the same trip.
Farm house — a private pool for your group
The farm house has its own pool, and because the property is booked privately, the pool is shared only by your group. Check-in is 4:00 PM and check-out is 11:30 AM, so you can swim in the afternoon, after breakfast, or both. Food is not included, which means you can plan a late lunch or a poolside snack table around your own schedule.
Pool, campfire, and music: the Saturday sequence
| Time | What happens |
|---|---|
| 4:00 PM | Check-in and tent allocation |
| 5:00–8:30 PM | Swimming pool access |
| 5:00–6:00 PM | Evening tea and snacks |
| 8:00 PM | Saturday music starts at the flagship camp |
| 8:30–10:00 PM | Dinner buffet |
| 10:00 PM | Campsite gates close |
| 10:30 PM | DJ night music at the night camping camp |
| 11:50 PM | Common campfire |
The exact sequence varies slightly by package, but the shape is the same: swim while it is light, eat when it gets cool, and spend the rest of the night around music and fire.
What to carry for the pool
- Swimwear for every guest who plans to swim
- A quick-dry towel
- Flip-flops or pool slippers
- A spare set of clothes and a plastic bag for wet clothes
- Sunscreen and a cap for the afternoon
- Goggles or floaties if your child uses them — check with the team before bringing large floats
- A light jacket for after the pool, because the evening cools down quickly
The full overnight checklist is in the things to carry for night camping guide.
Is the pool suitable for kids and non-swimmers?
Children are welcome, but they must be supervised by a parent or guardian at all times. Pool access is a scheduled evening slot rather than an all-day free swim, which keeps the area manageable. If your child is a weak swimmer, ask the team about the pool depth and whether any part of the pool is shallow before you book.

Pool camping or lakeside camping?
Choose the pool packages if swimming is the point of the trip, if you have kids, or if you want the classic camp evening of pool, dinner, music, and campfire. Choose the Luxury Lakeside Camping package if you would rather have a quieter lakeside setting, hi-tea, and adventure rope activities, and you do not mind skipping the pool.
