xray0111 Posted August 7, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 7, 2022 We will be on the Odessey and would like the to use the Solarium pools rather early, around 5-6AM. I see now they have lifeguards which they did not on our last cruise. In fact, I actually had to cut the pump on in the pool it was sooo early. We just like the relative quiet and solitude it affords us at that time of day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adolfo2 Posted August 7, 2022 #2 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Very sure that pools are netted-over until 8:00 or 8:30. Hot tubs open first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xray0111 Posted August 7, 2022 Author #3 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Sorry, I was actually referring to hot tubs in my question. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tlbecker1 Posted August 7, 2022 #4 Share Posted August 7, 2022 We were on the Odyssey in March and the solarium pool didn’t open until 9AM and closed at 8PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PompeySailor Posted August 7, 2022 #5 Share Posted August 7, 2022 (edited) This is in the app for Odyssey sailing Edited August 7, 2022 by PompeySailor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare rudeney Posted August 7, 2022 #6 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Not on Odyssey, but on other ships (Freedom, Liberty, Navigator, etc.) I've always been up and using the pools and hot tubs well before 9am - more like 7am. When crew members were around, I have asked them permission and they have always said yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeeW Posted August 7, 2022 #8 Share Posted August 7, 2022 The app doesn't seem to show hot tub hours. You generally just have to wander around and see which ones aren't netted. I seem to remember them putting hours in the printed Patter, but early/late is dependent on when they need to clean and treat them. Often will have only one open in an area outside of normal pool hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was 8am on my last 5 Cruises in April, just checked App says 8am on my next Ship in Oct-Nov. Then have to remember Lifeguard was to be on Duty for anyone go in the Pool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xray0111 Posted August 8, 2022 Author #10 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Looks like I'll just get at usual time and see, especially on the first morning. Thanks for ALL the replies. XRAY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Cruiser Girl Posted August 8, 2022 #11 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Interesting, the app for the current sailing of the Jewel has the hours for the Whirlpools/Jacuzzis in Solarium as 2 am - 10 pm every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare twangster Posted August 8, 2022 #12 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Over at the RCL Blog website we can't link to here the cruise compasses from past guests for Odyssey in July shows "Select Whirlpool/Jacuzzis" are open 24 hours. It might not be the one in the solarium every day, it could be one on the open outdoor pool deck that's is open early, but the cruise compass states one is open somewhere all the time.
