I just learned something super fantastic that I will preliminarily add to the pros list for Royal Caribbean: I just learned that on the Anthem, their adult only Solarium, which is an immense glass covered indoor pool with fabulous views of the sea, is actually accessible to those 16 years of age and up! Maybe some of you will think that is good or some of you may think that is bad, but it is great for us since I will be with my 16 year old daughter. I am thrilled that I am able to share this beautiful space with her. In addition, because the
Anthem sails out of New Jersey, it seems that it will be a great choice for us in the Winter months. We sailed from New York on DCL in November, and I felt the 1st, 2nd, and last days of the cruise were kind of wasted with chilly, windy inclement weather. Having the solarium pools in the glass enclosed space would be such an advantage. We would not feel we wasted any sea days getting to where we are going. I was also on a very impressive Viking ship about a year ago, which also has the enclosed glass retractable roof on the pool deck. It is amazing for sailing in inclement weather. Just a side note I was very happy to learn. I know some of you may have mixed feelings with 16 year olds being allowed in adult spaces but we can save that for another thread. Lol
