Are there time limits for kids at UAE hotel pools, and does the water temperature differ between the family and adult pools?

TL;DR

At some UAE hotels, kids are only allowed in the separate family pool until 1pm, and that pool's water is noticeably colder than the adult pool, which has no time restrictions. Poolside food service runs from 1pm to 5pm.

Update for the adult pool: it is adults-only, and children are not permitted even in the surrounding area. It closes at sunset—around 6pm, or about 6:30pm earlier in the season.
