Are pools on the Royal Princess heated?

Will the pools be heated in April? (Mexican Riviera cruise)

 

Thank you for all responses.

We have spent close to 2 months on the Royal in the last 2 years and they were always cool.

We have always been told the outdoor pools on Princess are not heated.

We sailed on the Royal early last June for the British Isles cruise.  Imagine my surprise when I felt the pool waster and it was WARM.  I hate cold water so I do mean warm, not as warm as a hot tub but definitely heated.  There is no way the pool could have gotten to that temperature in the British Isles without being heated.  We enjoyed some nice swims after touring.  It was a very pleasant surprise.

The pools are solar heated(by the sun).

Ship pools on the Mexican Riviera cruise should be warm thanks to the sun shining on them and being semi-protected from the wind by the walls around the pool area on the lido deck.  As the number of bathers enter and use the pool they will also contribute to the water temperature.  So if the water is colder then encourage all to get into the pool to warm it up.

What you really want to watch out for is when a small area of the pool water is warmer than the rest.
