I don't have a fence around my pool. I have one around my yard, but not around the pool. But then again we have dead bolts on all exterior doors that requires a key from either side. We keep all doors locked at all times. Both of my gates are locked at all times. Also, I pay attention to where my kids are regardless of who's house I am at. They also make alarms/chimes for when the door is opened. My alarm system actually talks and tells you which door or window has been opened.

You should still have a fence around your pool. What's more important....your child's safety or the look of your backyard?

Thats good and most likely it will always be sufficient since you are an attentive parent BUT it still leaves a small chance that something could happen. Living in AZ where it seems like this happens daily in the summer may make me overly cautious but I really hate hearing about avoidable deaths involving kids.
