mom of 4 boys Posted September 12, 2007 #1 Share Posted September 12, 2007 :confused: :rolleyes: I know that this may be a stupid question but this is my 1st cruise. Is the Solarium adults only? The reason I'm asking is that it seems the snacks that most kids, teen like--Pizza, Hamburgers, Hot Dogs are all offered here and if is is adult only--Is there a place for kids to get these kinds of snacks? Also, are these snacks included in price of cruise or are these extras? Also, Are kids allowed in the pool area or is there a separate pool area for them? We will be sailing on Enchantment of the Seas. Thanks for any help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are 16 years of age or over you qualify as an adult in the solarium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusinmama06 Posted September 12, 2007 #3 Share Posted September 12, 2007 The kids can go there to get the snacks. That's a design flaw that they luckily fixed on Freedom Class. So 16 and older only for the pool/hot tub. The snacks are open to anyone. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrp96 Posted September 12, 2007 #4 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Kids can go into the solarium to grab food. They are not allowed to use the pools/hot tubs in the solarium area. Kids can use the main pool area to their hearts content! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lamar Cheeks Posted September 12, 2007 #6 Share Posted September 12, 2007 If kid do use the solarium pools or hot tubs, they are asked to leave ... by me, at least. I have no problem enforcing the rules. I guess maybe I just look mean, too. Ha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So 16 and older only for the pool/hot tub. The snacks are open to anyone. :) And the Voyager class. No snack bar in the Solariums, just a "bar" bar. IMO, it really was a dumb idea to have the most "kid favored" foods available in a venue that's supposed to be more "quiet" and a retreat. (No, I don't blame kids who go to the Solarium snack bars on the ships that have them. I'm saying it was a dumb place to put the thing in the first place--on those ships the kids are following the rules as long as they get their food and then depart.) beachchick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's just that I put on my old "school teacher" expression and give them what my DD used to call "the look"? Normally, I don't think I'm terribly frightening to look at (or at least, people don't run away screaming when they see me).:p beachchick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
