Anthem has 3 areas, regular outdoor, indoor family, adults only solarium. It is possible that outdoor area is smaller but still plenty of space.

gingernm Posted February 8, 2020 #4 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Maybe down to different ship class?? Anthem is Quantum class, Indy is Freedom class. Rob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Oceansaway17 Posted February 8, 2020 #5 Share Posted February 8, 2020 well Anthem is an ALL WEATHER SHIP. I bet you will like the indoor pool with lots of seats and then the solarium with the cascading pool with seats and view of front of ship. To me the actual outdoor pool area is the least exciting. Now Odyssey for those of you who are thinking of that ship, there is not cover over the 2nd pool. Now Odyssey will have two outdoor pools for FLA.

Not sure a great ship in hot climate due to the lack of open deck space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be our first time on Anthem (our first Royal Caribbean ship) in April. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaniDanielle Posted February 9, 2020 #13 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Full disclosure, the Oasis class is my favorite. However, Anthem being so close to us puts her up there also. Anthem’s pool deck has the kids zone, the outdoor pool, indoor pool and then the beautiful Adults Only Solarium. There is plenty of space for all, dry rarely feel crowded even when it is, You will love it. The other ships can’t come close to this pool area, in my opinion.

When we sailed Anthem in July a few years ago it was practically impossible to get a lounger by the outdoor pool on sea days. To make matters worse they never opened the retractable roof on the indoor family pool despite 9 days of beautiful weather. Still we loved the ship and would sail again in a heartbeat.

Not sure a great ship in hot climate due to the lack of open deck space. oh there is lots of space back by Seaplex and near the Mascot as well as near Wave rider. Trust me folks do go inside to escape the humidity and wind. It can be warm but if very windy, the inside pool is great. And these days we have to be careful of the sunshine and cancer so do not be discouraged on any Quantum ship because of public indoor space. First rainy day and you will be glad.
