The Pier at Robertson Swimming Lessons

The Pier at Robertson is a completed freehold apartment development at 80 Mohamed Sultan Road, Singapore 239013. The URA-derived dwelling record, current exact-development sources, a BCA publication and MCST-linked documentation support its identity, City Developments developer attribution, 2006 completion reference and communal swimming pool.
Current sources also list a wading pool and jacuzzi. No reliable reviewed source establishes current pool dimensions, depths, lane markings, edge configuration, condition or permission for paid external coaching.
Quick answer
Residents may enquire about kids, adult, beginner, ladies, private or compatible small-group lessons at a management-approved part of the main pool. Every arrangement depends on approval for the instructor, resident access, coach availability and an on-site suitability assessment.
“Lap pool” is a facility label, not proof of a standard measured course, exclusive lane or automatic permission for organised lessons.
Verified development identity
The URA-derived universe records 201 dwellings at postcode 239013. Current 99.co and PropertyGuru records identify The Pier at Robertson at 80 Mohamed Sultan Road as a freehold development by City Developments Limited, completed in 2006.
Unit totals differ. The URA-derived layer, 99.co and current PropertyGuru project summaries use 201 units, while one PropertyGuru building record uses 203. This guide preserves the discrepancy rather than selecting the outlying total.
Robertson and Pier namesake safeguards
The Pier at Robertson is distinct from Robertson Quay hotels, serviced residences, Robertson 100, River Place, The Quayside and other Singapore River properties. It is unrelated to overseas piers and waterfront recreation facilities.
Aquatic evidence and claim limits
Current PropertyGuru records list a lap pool and jacuzzi. Current 99.co records list a lap pool, wading pool and jacuzzi. A BCA buildability publication describes the original development facilities as including an environmental deck with an infinity lap pool and jacuzzi.
Government appeal documentation names The Pier at Robertson under MCST 3166 and refers to work involving the swimming pool. This supports the exact estate and pool identity without establishing present measurements, condition or coach access.
The BCA infinity-lap description is treated as historical design evidence. It is not proof that the original edge configuration, usable length or layout remains unchanged. No reviewed source publishes a verified metre length, width, depth, lane count, heating status or competition certification.
This guide therefore makes no 20-metre, 25-metre, 30-metre, 50-metre, Olympic-size or reserved-lane claim.
The wading pool is a separate shallow-water feature and is not automatically suitable for formal lessons. The jacuzzi is relaxation water, not a teaching pool. Management and the instructor must confirm the current layout and safe separation of each feature.
Public records do not establish current water quality, maintenance schedules, opening hours, crowd levels or access rules. Current estate notices, management directions and actual conditions control.
Management and security approval
The Pier at Robertson is private residential property. A public facility record, BCA description or MCST reference does not grant external-coach entry or commercial-use rights.
Before booking, ask MCST 3166 or the current managing agent whether the named instructor, learner count and proposed format are permitted. Confirm visitor registration, identification, resident accompaniment, instructor qualifications, insurance, indemnity and advance-notice requirements.
Also check coaching hours, equipment, photography, participant limits and booking procedures. Current by-laws and security instructions override old publications, listings and previous arrangements.
First-session pool assessment
Before recurring lessons begin, verify:
- the approved entrance, access process and meeting point;
- permission for the coach and every participant;
- the exact main-pool section approved for teaching;
- measured usable distance, width and depth changes;
- walls, steps, ladders and recovery points;
- current edge boundaries, slopes, drains, ledges and jets;
- deck grip, drainage, shade, glare and visibility;
- separation from the wading pool, jacuzzi and other water features;
- normal resident traffic, cleaning and closures;
- lightning shelter and emergency procedures; and
- rules for floats, kickboards, fins and other aids.
The instructor should alter the plan or recommend another approved venue if the available section cannot safely support the learner's objective.
Kids swimming lessons
Young beginners may practise safe entry and exit, bubbles, face immersion, supported balance, kicking and returning to a reachable wall. The chosen section must suit the child's height, confidence, communication needs and recovery ability.
School-age learners may develop streamlining, freestyle and backstroke coordination, breaststroke timing, treading water and self-rescue habits. Repetition distances should follow current on-site measurements rather than the historical lap-pool label.
Parents should disclose relevant medical, sensory, behavioural or learning needs and remain available when required. Non-participating children need separate adult supervision near every water feature.
Adult beginner and stroke coaching
Adult beginners can start with calm exhalation, balance, floating, recovery to standing and short controlled movement beside a suitable wall. Nervous learners should progress gradually without pressure to enter deeper water.
Water-confident adults may work on alignment, breathing rhythm, stroke efficiency, turns and pacing. Drills must fit actual geometry and shared use. A public pool may better suit uninterrupted endurance work if the approved route is short or busy.
Tell the coach about injuries, mobility limits, medical considerations or difficult water experiences before the first lesson.
Ladies and female-instructor requests
Ladies may request a female swimming instructor for comfort, cultural preference, privacy or safeguarding. Matching depends on instructor availability, Robertson Quay coverage, schedule and management-approved access.
The pool is communal and may be visible from homes or common areas. A female instructor does not create a women-only setting, reserve the water or guarantee privacy.
Private and small-group formats
One-to-one lessons provide focused feedback and flexible pacing, but “private” describes the coaching format rather than exclusive pool use. Other residents retain normal access unless management states otherwise.
Small groups may suit compatible learners. Numbers must comply with estate rules and allow continuous supervision.
Scheduling, weather and closures
Residents can propose weekday or weekend options after checking opening hours, maintenance schedules and normal use. No recurring quiet period or dedicated lane should be promised before access and instructor availability are confirmed.
Outdoor lessons must stop during lightning warnings and unsafe weather. Agree how lightning, rain, maintenance, water-quality closures, crowding or failed access affects credits and make-up lessons.
Fees and booking expectations
Fees depend on duration, format, participant count, instructor match, travel and access requirements. No estate-specific rate is invented here. Review the SwimmingClasses.sg fees and rates guide and request a current written quotation.
Confirm participants, payment timing, cancellation notice, package validity, weather terms and management permission before purchasing multiple sessions.
Water safety and SwimSafer
Condo lessons may build confidence, floating, recovery, strokes and water-safety habits. The Pier at Robertson is not presented as an official SwimSafer assessment venue without separate programme and venue confirmation.
Frequently asked questions
Does The Pier at Robertson have a swimming pool?
Yes. Current exact-development records, BCA material and MCST-linked documentation support a communal swimming pool.
Is it an infinity lap pool?
BCA described the original development that way. Current configuration and measurements must be verified on site before using the historical label for lesson planning.
Does it have a wading pool?
Current 99.co records list one. Confirm its present status and suitability; it is not automatically a formal lesson area.
Does the development have 201 or 203 homes?
The URA-derived layer and leading current project records use 201; one building record uses 203. This guide preserves the discrepancy.
Can an external instructor enter?
Only when current management procedures permit the named coach and the resident completes every required access arrangement.
Sources and review note
Identity, scale, completion and aquatic evidence were reviewed on 28 August 2026 using the URA-derived dwelling dataset, current PropertyGuru and 99.co records, a BCA buildability publication and government documentation naming MCST 3166.
The swimming-pool identity is strongly supported. Unit count, current dimensions, depths, edge configuration, wading-pool status, condition, management procedures and paid-coach permission remain disputed or unverified where stated.
