All people do in most Solarium pools is hang onto the edges & talk to others…. I have always wondered why the pool had to be so deep as sometimes the pool edges can get crowded leaving the pools centers open...but too deep for 5'4'' people (me)…. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare niksmom630 Posted August 28, 2019 Author #157 Share Posted August 28, 2019 They were out, but not easily reachable if I recall. But I’m vertically challenged, so that may have been a factor.

apurvanataraj88 Posted August 28, 2019 #158 Share Posted August 28, 2019 How crowded is the Solarium on Port Days @niksmom630? And how was the crowd around the FlowRiders before Sail Away? I will be on this ship this weekend !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimala Posted August 28, 2019 #159 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I was happy to just see the picture with the chips because I thought I read that they no longer had them but I guess the fact was they no longer had them accessible for people to hoard.

Rare niksmom630 Posted August 28, 2019 Author #160 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Reflection and port views... Currently cooling off at the beach poolNot sure if i will get off today.

Rare niksmom630 Posted August 28, 2019 Author #163 Share Posted August 28, 2019 How crowded is the Solarium on Port Days @niksmom630? And how was the crowd around the FlowRiders before Sail Away? I will be on this ship this weekend !!Here are a few pics of the Solarium today around 1 pmAs you can see, it’s pretty empty. Most people were in the pool, which is 3 feet by the way for the poster who inquired. I’ll be honest, not a fan of the Solariums on Oasis or Allure. They are just HOT. The ventilation is just not great. It’s definitely different on Harmony and Symphony—cooler for sure. I was in there 5 minutes to take a few pics and I’m sweating already. Even the main pools are fairly empty, or rather, there are plenty of open chairs A few more pics taken from from the Solarium Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare niksmom630 Posted August 28, 2019 Author #164 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Samba grill menuWas kind of surprised the Solarium wasn’t open for lunch today. I remember it being open on port days on Symphony These nooks are nice. They don’t have them that I recall on any other Oasis class ship. Near the Pool barThe view from the nook isn’t bad eitherSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was pretty close to what I have paid for a standard Oceanview balcony on Oasis class ships. Why I said it was my one and only CL Suite. Kind of like the $18 dollar a day drink package. 🤣 Wow ,that was a good deal, to good to pass up for sure. You would think they could have made more money offering it to someone else using the Royal UP...............just how far out did you secure this cabin before the date of the cruise?

There was 5 weekends in June and July that they had weekend specials on either the CL, Grand Suite or Owners suites for sailings in August and September.

James4me Posted August 28, 2019 #168 Share Posted August 28, 2019 (edited) Ugh, I hate all that glass windows in the Solarium. It’s got to be a hot house in there. I really wish they’d just open it up to let in the nice sea breeze. Edited August 28, 2019 by James4me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

discru Posted August 28, 2019 #172 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Thank you for the pictures of Diamond Lounge. I love that place...err... I loved that place. Not looking forward to it moving.
