Immebsmom Posted January 12, 2006 #1 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Hello, we are looking at booking an Alaskan cruise on RSSC and wondered if the pool is heated. Our teens love to swim and this is a big deal for them. Could anyone here please advise? Thanks so much!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
see sic Posted January 12, 2006 #2 Share Posted January 12, 2006 On my one Mariner cruise to Alaska I was expecting to swim in a heated pool too, but was disappointed it was not. I remember asking at the reception desk why it was not heated, and I was advised the heating of the pool would contribute to the development of germs and bacteria in the water. I think I swam in it anyway because on our cruise it was actually quite warm when we were in Alaska, so it ended up not being too bad---but it was COLD in the pool .

Jim B Posted January 12, 2006 #4 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Pool is salt water. It is drained every night and filled every morning. I think it is this way on just about all cruise lines. Now the hot tubs are fresh water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
