sjb317 Posted November 19, 2012 #2 Share Posted November 19, 2012 There is no charge for the solarium pool and hot tubs. Sherri:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare DragonOfTheSeas Posted November 19, 2012 #3 Share Posted November 19, 2012 A great adult perk included in your fare. Enjoy. The only thing to remember is that on cold weather cruises they often set aside time for families to use the indoor pool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to clarify so the Op isn't confused, the Solarium on Freedom is not indoor. So this is not an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newfirsttimer Posted November 19, 2012 Author #7 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Thanks to all for your prompt response. While I will be on a family cruise, it is great to know that there is a 'quiet spot' where I can go to get away from all the noise and activity. Thanks again. Looking forward to this.

It is my favorite Solarium of all the class of RC ships Enjoy. March should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dz9yvr Posted November 19, 2012 #9 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Is the Adult Pool and Hot Tub included in the cruise fare or is this an area that is charged per use? It's supposed to be an adult pool and hot tub, but there seems to be a trend where some parents bring their kids into this area because they do not believe the rules apply to them. RCCL seldom talks to anyone about kids in the pool or this area. Just a warning so you are not surprised Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCCL seldom talks to anyone about kids in the pool or this area. Just a warning so you are not surprised Been on the Explorer twice. When minors came into the Solarium, securituy promptly removed them. Was on the Oasis, never saw a kid in the Solarium, probably because that is the last place on the ship a kid would want to be. If parents bring their kids to the Solarium, find security, and have them removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquahound Posted November 19, 2012 #12 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Do other lines charge for an adult area? If so, do you know which ones. I did a HAL cruise earlier this year. Their sorta-solarium was a large adults only thalasotherapy pool that was just off the main pool. It was something like $40 person per day to use. Also, I originally had a Princess cruise booked for that trip. From what I researched on the ship I booked (Grand), there was an adults only serenity area that had a fee. I canceled that cruise though and didn't actually experience it, so if I'm wrong, I'm sure someone else will speak up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newfirsttimer - there is also a quite nice sauna and steam room to get some peace and quiet in the male and female changing rooms next to the gym (no charge) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

setsail Posted November 19, 2012 #16 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Minors are allowed in the solarium at anytime. The solarium is 16 and up. 16s are minors. Also, children are allowed to come in and check with their parents if need be. Only the pool is adult only and that can change anytime rci sees fit to do so.

Rare Lionesss Posted November 19, 2012 #17 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Our daughter did come check on us, when she broke away from the other teens, and then went on her merry way. Anyone can walk thru the area, its when they settle in on the loungers or at the in the water pool bar, that they let you know about moving on. Safe travels.

I understand that anyone can walk through the Solarium and I would expect that kids are going to come in and see their parents. I do objcet to the kids parking themselves on the loungers and using the pool and hot tub. Perhaps you mis-typed but the signs warning about the 16 yr age limit are at the entrances and it includes the hot tubs. I'm not sure why I need to encourgae the RCCL Staff to do their job.

When we sailed the Radiance to Alaska, there were a few times during the week that the covered solarium pool was open for anyone to use. M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCCL seldom talks to anyone about kids in the pool or this area. Just a warning so you are not surprised We have seen on a few occasions where the staff has kicked out kids immediately! Also don't be afraid to tell an attendant there are kids in the area and to please remove them! It's never been an issue to us ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxKroozer Posted November 20, 2012 #22 Share Posted November 20, 2012 There are man other places you can find on the Freedom, besides the Solarium where you can get away from the crowds. Some is in sun, some are in the wind, but there are plenty of quiet spots. Try Deck Four as it is seldom used and quiet all the time to sit, feel the breezes, hear the ocean, and be out of the sun.
