Pool temperature

[noah53]

I hear that they drain pool and hot tubs every night and refill them. Are the pools heated and if so are they warm? Going for first cruise on Ecstasy end of Jan.

I'm sure someone will correct me if I am wrong but it sure didn't feel like the pool was heated on our last CCL cruise!:eek: LOL

The pools are filled with sea water and drained nightly so the pool temperatures will be similar to the water temperatures you are sailing through. The hot tubs are the fresh water and they are not drained nightly. They will be at a set temperature which in our experience is usually about warm bathtub, in the 90's.

according to carnival faq:

What is the water temperature of the pool in the spa?

 

There may be 3 types of pools on a ship:

 

Outside pool – on average about 85.46 degrees Fahrenheit (29.7 degrees Celsius)

Inside pool – on average about 86 degrees Fahrenheit (30 degrees Celsius)

Jacuzzi – on average about 93.2 - 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit (34 - 38 degrees Celsius)

 

overall, i felt the outdoor hot tubes on deck was warm and not that hot

I would guess that the pools are in the middle to upper 70's and I have a hot tub and keep it around 102 to 103 degrees, I would say Carnival's hot tubs are about low to mid 90's.

Just gotta make sure the water is not yellow.

The pools start the day at the same temperature as the sea, and warm up as the sun heats them. There are heaters but I have never felt them being used.

on the splendor last may our first sea day (monday) it was chilly outside but the upper pool was most defiantly heated to almost spa temp was a life saver because the kids were using the slide
