Rare budmeister Posted March 5, 2022 #1 Share Posted March 5, 2022 Hi, What is a good price for a seven day sea thermal wellness pass? Do they sell for 4-5 days on ship? Is the thermal pool usually full and do you think it is hygienic? On our last cruise, some people who used the hot tub picked up Covid. Thanks for the tips!

kwokpot Posted March 5, 2022 #2 Share Posted March 5, 2022 What are you talking about? There are no Celebrity ships with a Thermal suite that has a water feature,in other words there's no hot tub/Whirlpool or pool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, they're only on the Millennium class ship, they're not usually full and they're as hygienic as any pool. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neverlaysup Posted March 6, 2022 #8 Share Posted March 6, 2022 The Thermal spa on M and S class ships is pretty limited with only loungers, sauna and steam. E class has all of the above plus salt room, Turkish bath and crystal room. It also has some hanging chairs to relax in. Cost of E class one week pass was $235 two weeks ago and if you are in a balcony or Concierge, you should just walk up to guest services and upgrade to AQ, it will be cheaper than a spa pass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing to do with the spa. Just to reiterate,what they are referring to is the indoor pool in the Solarium,which is located on all Celebrity ships for free. On the M-class ships the indoor pool has those thalassotherapy jets which are quite relaxing to be on. To the original question I think as compared to other cruiselines the solarium pools on Celebrity ships seem less like a party pool than say the main outdoor pools on a Carnival ship.

Rare budmeister Posted March 6, 2022 Author #11 Share Posted March 6, 2022 (edited) This must not be a very popular attraction. The following is how the package is sold on the Edge : "Set sail on a journey to ultimate relaxation with this sensory oasis. Inspired by traditional Turkish Baths, our Thermal Suite features heated chaise lounges as well as aromatic steam and sauna grottos - a perfect interlude to your day. Then, soak in our Thalassotherapy Pool, a therapeutic, natural-bubbling salt-water spring. This mineral-rich body of water has healing powers for de-stressing, pain relief, and to soothe dry skin. Enjoy a 7-day Thermal Suite and Thalassotherapy Pool experience during your cruise with this pass." If anyone is familiar with this venue- are the times of the reservations strictly adhered to? I was surprised to have to choose a 15 min time slot for a 7-day pass. Edited March 6, 2022 by budmeister Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is 119.00 now for a 7-day , so I booked it. What to you know about the time slots? I expected it to be walk in, unless full at the time. I had to choose a 15 min time slot.

The timeslots are meaningless for a weekly spa pass. You can come and go as many times each day as you want. The timeslots are really only meant for treatment reservations. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have tried to find it from Spa offerings but haven't been able to find it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a time on the S class ships last year when they were controlling access via 1 hr reservations and that was a bit difficult. On the E class ships, there was no reservation system. It really depends on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would be on a space available basis, would require a change of cabin, and of course payment of the price difference between the 2 cabin categories. That may or may not be cheaper than buying a pass. Edited March 14, 2022 by mom says 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cost of a spa pass was $235 per person. We changed rooms before our bags were delivered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not related to Covid at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve frequently purchased spa passes once onboard. We’ve never had to reserve a specific time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
