Yes, but it's only about the size of 2 hot tubs put together, maybe 3

Theoretically, it is limited to adults. You may have to ask Guest Relations to have security clear the pool of children if you need the pool but they didn't bother the kids on our Dec. 21 cruise. Perhaps that was due to the weather being too cold to use the outdoor pool.

Just got off the Mercury last Thanksgiving. The Palm Springs Pool is in a solarium with a retractable roof, however, it was not retracted during our cruise. Very nice area with large comfortable lounge chairs with cushions. I also thought this was an adult pool, however, we had a group of young kids doing a "jump in the pool" contest over and over again. They were cute, but it got aggravating after we got splashed a few times. I discretely approached an officer and asked if the pool was for adults only. He said no and didn't take any action to tone down the kids. We stayed because the area is so nice, but it would be great if it was an adults-only pool IMO.
BTW, there is a T-Pool on the Merc which is great. It will bleach your bathing suit, but it's worth it!

I have to disagree with many that like the t-pool. It is basically an indoor hot tub with strong water jets and very limited seating. IMO the outdoor hot tubs are far superior as they offer an outdoor experience with plenty of seating and a MUCH younger clientele.
On our 12/21/2009 cruise, we found the t-pool filled with the same rude, nitpicking elderly people every day. Not worth it if it were free, which it is not. Buy 5 bottles of wine instead!
