Indoor pools - which ships?

[mpc863]

I know that Alaska is about the ports, but I have 3 young kids who will want to swim! I'm having trouble finding current information on which ships have covered pools.

 

It looks like the coral, grand, and island princess have covered pools.

 

Norwegian - no covered pools?

 

Hal - not sure

 

Thanks in advance!

We're sailing to Alaska on the HAL Noordam which has a pool under a retractable roof. I think the other HAL ships that sail in Alaska also have his feature.

We are on Zaandam, which also has a retractable roof.

We are going on the Star Princess this summer. First time. I am under the belief they have a covered pool too.

All HAL ships have covered pools, except for Prisendam, which doesn't usually sail Alaska.

Look at past trip reports, specifically family trips to see photos of cabin configuration and pools, plus first hand recommendations on family activities, kids clubs, excursions, etc.

Celebrity Infinity has an indoor pool. Only open for families like an hour a day and adults only other than. That.

Good to know about the HAL ships. Looks like we are safe on Princess or HAL. I like the Norweigan Pearl but it's out with no covered pool.

RCCL ships have a solarium pool that is inside but normally adults only. BUT... in bad weather (normal for Alaska) it is open for kids at times.

On our last four RCI Radiance cruises the Solarium pool was open every afternoon during certain hours for families with children.

Yes, the Star does have a covered pool. My kids swam several times despite the weather - it was colder than normal when we were in Alaska.
