Gatewatch is a long-standing tradition at the Westgate Cabana Club, whereby members volunteer to greet and check in members at the gatewatch desk.  Gatewatch promotes the safety and security of our pool by ensuring that only members and their guests enter the facility. This helps keep our costs low for members each season, otherwise we would need to pay a staff member to perform this work.

  • Overview
