NCL Prima Haven Pool - No Kids?

[JD_JAX]

I just saw – for the first time while using the app – that the Haven Sun Deck on Prima is restricted to those older than age 16.

 

We booked Haven for the whole family and to escape the main pools among many other reasons. Does anyone have better first hand knowledge of kids being able to enjoy the Haven pool on Prima? I am very disappointed I never had access to this details until AFTER booking.

 

Thanks for any insights.

The sun deck is limited, but I believe the pool is open to all Haven guests.

Sun deck is not the same as pool deck.

Sun deck is upstairs, mostly just loungers, sometimes a hot tub on the bigger ships -adults only.

Kids can use the pool deck.

The pool and lower sundeck is totally for kids. It’s only the upper outside sundeck that is 16+. Do not panic. Everyone will have a fabulous time.

Upper deck has 2 small hot tubs.  Like most other Haven Pools, it is a small one.

Thank you all for your replies.

Not sure how much fun your kids will have in the Haven Prima pool though. Shoulder to shoulder adults with cocktails in hand most hours of the day and evening was what we experienced. The only time that we were able to enjoy the pool was when we were in port, most folks on excursions. Something to note also is that when the ship is in port, they fill that Haven pool to the top, so it is really a cool Infinity pool. While cruising, the water is about a foot lower, so not Infinity (spillage maybe?). Also, take lots of sunscreen as there is very little shade to be had on the Haven outdoor decks.

Has anyone actually been on the Prima with kids and confirmed that kids are allowed in the pool on 16? I know there’s been a lot of replies, but I’m not seeing anyone who has actually been on the ship and successfully had kids in the pool on the 16th floor. Thanks!

Our family was on the 3/12/23 Prima cruise out of Port Canaveral in a Haven suite.

 

Our kids, ages 10 and 7 were welcome in the small Haven pool, and they were joined by a number of other kids as well. As other posters suggested, it's probably the dedicated "sun deck" one deck above that is likely adults-only. We did not venture up there.

Haven pool, regardless of ship, esp during school holidays, is kids fun zone.  It is what it is.
