Hydro pool lover Posted March 18, 2017 #1 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Does anyone know if there is going to be a theatre with shows or movies and will the pool in the solarium be a hydropool? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Lover Posted March 19, 2017 #2 Share Posted March 19, 2017 If I am not mistaken "Hydropool" is a brand not a unique type of pool unto itself. The pool in the solarium (called a Thelasotherapy pool) is heated (nearly as hot as a hot tub) and is extremely salty with minerals added. Those currently on Celebrity ships have bars on two opposing sides with many many bubbles that you can lounge across (not particularly comfortable or easy to get on and off of). And yes... there will be a theater with production show. There will also be movies shown outdoors in the garden terrace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare C-Dragons Posted March 19, 2017 #3 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Does anyone know if there is going to be a theatre with shows or movies and will the pool in the solarium be a hydropool? Unfortunately, the "hydro pools" on all the Solstice class ships were replaced with lap pools. There has been no announcement yet as to what type of pool there will be in the Solarium.

The pools in the Solarium on S class ships are not, they are regular pools. Unknown what will be on the new ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hydro pool lover Posted March 20, 2017 Author #5 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Thanks for all the answers. You are correct I was asking about a Thelasotherapy pool. From the pictures it looks as though there are some type of chairs in the water but doesn't look like a T pool. Great to hear that there will be production shows. It doesn't look like the Persian Garden is part of the plan either. The ship does look interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are still large blocks of space marked "coming soon" -- so we can all hope that our missing 'favorite' will be there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a picture of the Solarium and it appears to be like S class ships but who knows. A little known fact is the M class ships are not the original T pools. The original T pool was on the Century and was removed during a dry dock, it was better than the T pool on the M class ships. Some old timers remember it and don't consider the M class ships to be T pools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hydro pool lover Posted March 20, 2017 Author #8 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Wish I could have been on the Century before the T removal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ISABELLA Posted March 20, 2017 #9 Share Posted March 20, 2017 If the Edge will have anything similar to T pool on M ship - I might reconsider and will eventually sail on her. Otherwise, not much I see that appeal to me to pay 30% more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hydro pool lover Posted March 26, 2017 Author #10 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Since the Aqua rooms have always had a Persian Garden there's still hope "the coming soon" will be a PG and maybe a T pool. It's popular and much nicer than the lap pools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So true..orig T pools had minerals and salts, various hydro therapy stations..more like pool on QM2 from what I recall, They were located within the spa..only those with booked spa appts or purchasers of a day or week pass could use it. Truly a shame when they removed it from Century..but Mercury still had it. M class T pool are a weak substitue but the hydro showers are nice for sore necks and shoulders. S class...nice inside pool.. Edited March 26, 2017 by hcat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are still hoping for an enhanced spa class experience but seems more resources are going to Suite Class...can't afford that or the spa accomodations on Azamara...or we'd jump to AZ.

Let's hope they put some resources into AQ as well and enhance the experience - we are splurging on the first cruise in an S1 but will then likely go to AQ if prices stay up on the Edge.

It's popular and much nicer than the lap pools. There likely will be a Persian Gardens (or something similar) but a T-pool is doubtful. The reason Celebrity gave for not have not having them on S-class ships, despite their popularity on M-class ships, was the expense involved in maintaining them.

ShawRuff Posted March 27, 2017 #15 Share Posted March 27, 2017 I booked a Aqua class cabin Saturday while on the Silly as was told there would be a hydrotherapy pool and Persian Gardens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably a Persian Gardens but don't count on a hydrotherapy pool. Celebrity rumor mill on board is very often inaccurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No more or less accurate than the rumor mill here :) We can still hope I suppose. It would be a bug disappointment if they did away with the thelasotherapy pool.

SSFrance69 Posted March 31, 2017 #19 Share Posted March 31, 2017 It would be a shame if they did not include a therapy pool in the spa area...especially since so much of the mainstream cruise line competition has them. They are smaller and you pay to use them/spa area. This seems like a no brainer. More revenue/bringing back something that passengers love. I paid to use it on Mercury and would do so again.

Rare hcat Posted March 31, 2017 #20 Share Posted March 31, 2017 March online Celeb Newsletter has a blurb about Solarium under Pool..category Not a T pool but looks like an awesome space..we spend alot of time there so happy with what thry say & show...,still hope there will be a small true T pool in the spa...like they had on the Mercury, Century.. I will try to copy the blurb and photo depiction but it may or may work..tried once ...no success.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted March 31, 2017 #21 Share Posted March 31, 2017 SOLARIUM On the Resort Deck, you’ll find one of the most popular spots on every Celebrity ship—the adults-only Solarium. Celebrity Edge continues the tradition of offering a covered pool area where adults can unwind in modern luxury style. Here, we turned again to Tom Wright for the design, and he used the ocean itself as his inspiration.The Solarium now features a three-dimensional art wall that represents the beautiful colors and movement of the ocean. It’s the perfect complement to the serene atmosphere where you can restore both your tan and your sanity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
