miched Posted April 17, 2014 #1 Share Posted April 17, 2014 On the last two Celebrity cruises that were both 14 days in the Caribbean I never got into the pool or a hot tub. On cruises prior I would get into them just becasue they were there but didn't spend much time in either and never more than twice per cruise. Curious about how many really use a pool on board the ship other than laying around it. It may be because I have a hot tub at home but I don't think so. 🏊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NLH Arizona Posted April 17, 2014 #2 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Don't use either the pool or hot tub on the ship, as I don't use any public hot tubs or pools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudithLynne Posted April 17, 2014 #3 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Don't use either the pool or hot tub on the ship, as I don't use any public hot tubs or pools. I agree with you completely, it is especially repulsive when you see a diapered baby in the water! Even with hot tub and/or pool ownership in a private home, we often see the newness wear off quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spookwife Posted April 17, 2014 #4 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Pools: never. Hot tubs: maybe once a cruise. Johnny_b a little more often but he also works out daily. we do not lie out on deck at all. shaded/indoors only if we want to read somewhere. not even packing my swimsuit for next week. of course it's a Pacific Coastal with tempos forecast to be in the low 60s.. so that might have been a factor in that decision :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iHeartGlaciers Posted April 17, 2014 #5 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I use the hot tub maybe every other night? I'd use it more often if it were open later, even if it was just an hour later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgparent Posted April 17, 2014 #6 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I never use either, I don't even sit by the pool I find that boring :) I may use the hot tub on our upcoming cruise since it is on our balcony :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4774Papa Posted April 17, 2014 #7 Share Posted April 17, 2014 We don't use the pool very much, but we do use the hot tub a few times during a cruise. We did Aqua on a cruise and used Persian Gardens a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barwick Cruiser Posted April 17, 2014 #8 Share Posted April 17, 2014 We use the pool almost daily on Caribbean cruises...love the sun and need to cool off in the pool....but then I'm Canadian and we have a very short summer so I feel obligated to get the most out of whatever access I have to sun and heat:D Rarely use the hot tubs and on the M class ships just love the roller bars and intense water streams in the T-pool!! Gonna miss that t-pool on our upcoming Med cruise....so relaxing after a day in port! We've been fortunate that we've never seen babies in the deep pool or t-pool.

Happy Cruiser 6143 Posted April 17, 2014 #9 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I've never set foot in a regular pool on a Celebrity ship. Do love the T pools. And have used the hot tubs there. But they close them too early in the evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvufan Posted April 17, 2014 #10 Share Posted April 17, 2014 T pool only. Happy Sails to You OOOEEE :D:D Bob and Phyl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obnurse Posted April 18, 2014 #11 Share Posted April 18, 2014 I totally agree with Barwick. I use the pool almost daily, hot tubs never. Being from Michigan, I want to enjoy every minute of the sunshine and warm air. I'm the last one back to the cabin for a shower before dinner. I never want to give up that sunshine!

We're The Groupnors Posted April 18, 2014 #12 Share Posted April 18, 2014 We have occasionally used the thalassotherapy pools on the m-class ships, but never the outdoor pools or hot tubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Texed Posted April 18, 2014 #13 Share Posted April 18, 2014 WOW! The pools sure are crowded for no one ever going there. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Frances Posted April 18, 2014 #14 Share Posted April 18, 2014 (edited) Don't use any heated public pools/especially hot tubs. Uck I used to use to reg pools up until 5 yrs ago but no longer since there is so much else to do on a ship especially on sea days when everyone is on the pool deck lol. That's just me tho Plus I spend way too much money on products to get rid of the brown sun spot/damage from years past Edited April 18, 2014 by Christine Frances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted April 18, 2014 #15 Share Posted April 18, 2014 I try to use one pool or the other every day.,, best is early before too many others use them...i enjoy swimming slow laps, exercising or just floating...big part of my cruise day...but we leave pool areas once they get crowfed and noisy. hot tubs not as appealing esp. Because they let children use them. Also enjoy Persian Gardens...and the gym, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Du vent dans les voiles Posted April 18, 2014 #16 Share Posted April 18, 2014 No pool, no hot tub for us. Don't even use the inground pool that I have in my backyard! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted April 18, 2014 #17 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Never have used either on a X ship. Do like to sit in the shaded area around them. LuLu ~~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaybird from SC Posted April 18, 2014 #18 Share Posted April 18, 2014 We have been known to use the T-Pool a couple of times but never the others. We also seldom sit around the pool area. If we do, it is only briefly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moobaby214 Posted April 18, 2014 #20 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Have never used a pool or hot tub on a cruise... But we intend to change that this next cruise because it's on our balcony :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redtravel Posted April 18, 2014 #21 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Never use the hot tubs. Those tubs are nasty. All you need is one person with a fungal infection using it...and you will get it sick. It happened to me. My doctor said never ever use hot tubs. I seldom use the pools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
