Pool in Spice H2O?!

[RickinNYC]

Do I understand that the pool at Spice is non-functional, i.e. not filled right now? I thought it was going to be the adults only pool area?!

[UK_Cruiser]

I don't think it was filled for Transatlantic or for NYC to Miami but I would assume that as she is now sailing the Caribbean that the pool is indeed now filled and in operation.

I don't think anyone said it was non-functional. There was no reason to fill it on the transatlanic with nobody in any of the pools due to the mid 50s F temperatures and fog almost everyday. May still enjoyed the relaxed adults only Spice H20 area when the sun did come out.

It was not filled during the Transatlantic. However, it was open during the 2 day sailing last week in Miami.

 

It is pretty small though. Not sure what it will be like on a regular sailing.

Not filled pool = nonfunctioning in my world. But whatever the case, it's semantics.

 

Thanks to all for assurances.

As with ALL pools on cruise ships it's there for a quick dip to cool off.

 

In 5 cruises I have never once used the pools. I have used the hot tubs but never the pools.

 

Actually, is there a hot tub or two in Spice H2O ?

I always use the pool, but only to hop in, cool off and that's about it. Never been in a pool onboard any ship that I could do much more than that, and I'm a pool guy! Hot tubs, not so much. People soup.

That it is. To me nonfunctioning means not working and unable to be filled rather then not filled :confused:

Check out the video above. A hot tub in each of the aft corners.

Thanks :D

 

Spice looks great ! It's gonna be the place to be !

I think its a great spot for movie lovers to hang out get wet and overdose on movies all day. When we sailed on Princess they had it and we hung out all day there. Very cool.

I don't think they are showing movies all day are they ?

Since this area is adults only are we allowed to go topless?

[time2cruise1]

That would be deck 19 over the courtyard area. ;)

yes, by all means :D

 

ok..just kidding

[sdmike]

Really? I must have missed that in the brochure. Is that accessible to the general public, or a suite only thing?

Mike, on many of the newer NCL ships there is an area designated as "Freestyle Sun Deck", this is dedicated to topless sunbathing... not so sure about bottom-less.... heh heh...

 

~Intrepid <-- keepin his pants on for now...

Interesting. If I took my suit off to tan the bottom everyone would need an extra pair of sunglasses :cool:

Exactly. We call it people stew. Why anyone would want to sit elbow to elbow with strangers in a hot tub is beyond me. But, if you were to combine the freestyle sundeck concept with the hot tub, as in freestyle hot tub, that may be a different story...

Insert sexy music here: Boom chica mow wow...!

I was wondering about the movie thing too. Are movies going to be playing all during the day? or night? How fun that would be. Tanning, pool and movies to keep you occupied. :D

Open to the public - clothing optional

[mitsugirly]

clothing optional

 

Nuh uh, seriously? Clothing is optional up there? :eek:

[Let'sGoNow]

Now I have to figure out how my husband & I can spend all day at Spice H20 while my kids are cruising with us. Perhaps there's a velvet rope from where they can wave to us every hour or so. lol

[mitsugirly]

Take them to the kiddie daycare area. It looks awesome! I know if I was a kid, I'd want to spend the day there. :D
