Pride Indoor Pool Question

Recommended Posts

We enjoy cruising with our children aged 9 & 6 in Sept/Oct because our kids are 'tracked out'. On most ships, the lido deck pool in Sept/Oct is usually full of adults drinking with maybe 1/4 of the number of children on the ship vs. the summer. Boats with outdoor slides and waterparks work great because you have very few adults hanging out on the slides.

 

As far as I can tell, the Pride doesn't have an outdoor waterpark but does have an indoor pool. What is the atmosphere like around the indoor pool in Sept/Oct? Is it similar to a 'party pool' on the Lido deck or more kid friendly.

I don't think there is an indoor pool on the Pride. The kids pool is really just a wading pool and it's on deck 11. There is a water slide, the entrance is on deck 11 also and comes out on deck 10.

 

There are 3 pools on the Lido deck. The one on the aft is the Adult Only Serenity area and it's strictly enforced no kids.

 

The 2 mid ship pools are for all ages and in Sept/Oct will be mostly adults just because most kids are back in school. But the college age people will also be back in school so it shouldn't be too much of a party pool.

 

Which pool were you thinking was inside?

It's not an indoor pool. It's a pool with a retractable roof. And it's the pool with the bandstand. Or is that now a DJ stand?

 

But the ship does have a decent waterslide.

 

It's a stage for the different passenger participation events that happen.
