bluecruise456 Posted October 29, 2022 #552 Share Posted October 29, 2022 thanks for all the info - do you have the cruise compasses for the trip? We are on a 8 Day Harmony OTS in Jan. 2023 and wanted to look at activities. thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScubaCat3 Posted October 29, 2022 #553 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Just wanted to add a quick note from the October 29th sailing of Allure. Both Samba and Solarium Bistro are closed this week. It could have something to do with this being the last sailing from Ft. Lauderdale. After this week Allure is moving to Galveston. That’s all the information I have now. It messed up my prearranged reservations. All fixed now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't think that it would do you much good with you being on a different ship and later date. Things change so much. We had shows changing while we cruised. You can look at different cruises on your app and see what is going on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember last year the Solarium Bristo was shut down on Symphony and Harmony but I believe that was do to low numbers. I wonder if it's a supply shortage. Who knows. Sometimes they don't want to share and whatever is cancelled it's technical problems 🙃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScubaCat3 Posted October 30, 2022 #556 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Update on Samba/Solarium Bistro on the Allure - According to the suite lounge concierge they are closed temporarily for unexpected maintenance. They will return. Of course that could be another version of the “technical problems” excuse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sort of keeps things fresh and innovative. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone in another thread has posted that the entire solarium is closed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ozark_Kid Posted October 30, 2022 Author #559 Share Posted October 30, 2022 The whole Solarium closed would be a problem. That place was packed most days. They would all have to find another place. While we were on, they were having problems with one of the hot tubs outside the Solarium. I believe the week before someone posted that they had to shut down water at times and the restrooms were closed periodically on deck 15. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted October 30, 2022 #560 Share Posted October 30, 2022 The Solarium is where we spend every day onboard. I don’t think I have ever been in one of the outdoor pools on any of the Oasis class ships. I would not be happy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually just get in hot tubs right outside the Solarium. I avoid pools in both areas,. They get so crowded. Here is what the Solarium pool looked like. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luckynana Posted October 30, 2022 #562 Share Posted October 30, 2022 John, the whole Solarium IS closed. They are lifting tile, etc. I feel so badly for the people on the cruise. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I don't get in the ship pools/whirlpools. OMG! 😆 I hope the Solarium is up and running again by the time the Allure gets to Galveston. We are on the November 13 sailing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen one as gross looking as that. What a mess. The first O class cruise we did was Allure in 2014, couldn't wait to get in that line for the Kemmelweck, was totally disappointed even then and have only had one more, we have 5 O class cruises under our belts, will never get another of those.

I was actually surprised to see anyone in the pool while cruising Alaska but they were. We are able to find a Hot tub not packed at times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to like them but since the start up we haven't had a good one and as bad as that last one was I believe we are done too.
