Inspection summary
Mariner's Village - Swirl Pool has been inspected 35 times by Vancouver Coastal Health since July 20, 2015. The most recent inspection, on March 12, 2026, recorded 6 infractions.
6 of 35 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there was 1 inspection with 6 infractions recorded. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Pool and spa water quality, Food temperature control and Chemicals and toxic substances.
The number of infractions per inspection has stayed roughly the same over time.
What these findings mean
Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for the people using the facility. Higher-risk findings are the ones that could directly cause illness or injury, such as water that is not properly treated.
Pool and spa water qualityHigher risk
For pools, spas and splash pads, inspectors test disinfectant levels, pH and water clarity, and check safety equipment. Water that is not properly treated can spread skin, ear and stomach infections.
Recorded 62 times across 26 separate inspections, most recently on March 12, 2026. For example:
The pool combined chlorine level is properly maintained
Food temperature controlHigher risk
Inspectors check that anything that has to be kept at a set temperature, such as chilled or hot food, or equipment like sterilizers, stays in its safe range and that accurate thermometers are on hand. With food, temperature problems are one of the most common causes of food poisoning.
Recorded 10 times across 10 separate inspections, most recently on March 12, 2026. For example:
The pool water temperature is properly maintained
Chemicals and toxic substancesHigher risk
Pool chemicals such as chlorine and acid must be labelled, stored apart from each other and handled safely. Mixing them by mistake can release toxic gas, so storage and handling problems are treated seriously.
Recorded 4 times across 4 separate inspections, most recently on June 22, 2023. For example:
Chemicals are stored in a safe manner and location
Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk
Decks, ladders, fencing, drains, washrooms and signage must be in good repair. Damaged drain covers or broken fencing can be real safety hazards, while most other upkeep issues are lower risk.
Recorded 5 times across 5 separate inspections, most recently on March 12, 2026. For example:
Construction or alterations have occurred with a valid construction permit or waiver.
Equipment and utensilsLower risk
Pumps, filters, chemical feeders and safety equipment such as lifebuoys, reaching poles and first-aid kits must be present and working. Missing safety equipment can matter a great deal in an emergency.
Recorded 4 times across 4 separate inspections, most recently on September 16, 2025. For example:
Pool equipment is regularly tested for safety and maintained in accordance with the manufacturers' specifications
