Neptune and Roman Pools, Hearst Castle, San Simeon, California

Surely this pool has to be evryone's fantasy swimming venue?
Of all the pools in the world, this is the one I would most like to swim in! We were told on a tour that once a year there is a party for staff in which they may use the pool. I'd also love to swim in the indoor Roman pool
