Top swimming pools on cruise ships!11.01.2021 12:09

The new year 2021 has begun, and we want to start it with an interesting TOP. The pool question is one of the most popular. Especially for those who go on a cruise with children.

Regardless of the situation in the world (including quarantine), cruise companies continue to build new liners, which host more and more innovations and infrastructure. And the pools are no exception. These are both outdoor pools on the upper decks of the liner, as well as indoor pools or even pools with a retractable roof!

Especially for you, we publish this review of the best (in our opinion) swimming pools for abortion on cruise ships!

The selection was made based on several criteria from which one can distinguish:

- The location of the pool;

- View from the pool;

- Dimensions;

- Infrastructure by the pool.

We did not rank them. Write in the comments what order you would place them.

And so on to the TOP!

Viking Infinity Pool - Viking Ocean Cruises

Viking Ocean Cruises is one of the youngest premium cruise lines. At the moment, the cruise company owns 9 cruise ships.

One of the most favorite places to relax on board the ships of the Viking Ocean Cruises company is undoubtedly the pool with an indescribable view - the Viking Infinity Pool. There is also a jacuzzi, bar and World Cafe near the pool. But the most important thing is the view from the pool. Of course, photos do not overeat sensations, but even they are impressive.

25-meter swimming pool on the Mein Schiff 5 - TUI Mein Schiff

Even though Mein Schiff 5 is not the largest cruise ship, it has the largest pool of any cruise ship! 25 meters is really a lot for a cruise ship. Don't forget to add two jacuzzis and an outdoor seating area to this.

Wake View Pool - Princess Cruises

Despite its small size, we also wanted to include it in the top because of its location. It is located on the Royal class liners (Majestic Princess, Regal Princess, Royal Princess, Enchanted Princess, Discovery Princess), the American cruise company Princess Cruises.

This pool is located at the very edge of the aft area of the ship, which allows you to enjoy an unforgettable view (especially during a "day at sea").

Solarium Pool on Royal Caribbean ships

Immediately, we note that this is a Solarium zone with several pools and a jacuzzi at once. Such a zone can only be found on the Quantum class liners (Quantum Of The Seas, Anthem Of The Seas, Ovation of the Seas, Spectrum of the Seas, Odyssey of the Seas). What makes this zone stand out from the rest and why is it included in our top? The first is a cascade of several separate pools and jacuzzi, which allows you to relax in complete peace, apart from other guests. As a bonus, there is a panoramic view from the bow of the liner and admission of only adult passengers.

The Garden Pool Zen Area - MSC

Although the Italian cruise company MSC Cruises has launched many new ships with the best recreation areas and swimming pools, we would like to include in the top the aft pool on older Fantasia class ships (MSC Fantasia, MSC Splendida, MSC Preziosa. MSC Divina). As in other aft pools in our TOP, the unforgettable view from the stern of the liner came first. This pool is less popular than the central pool, allowing for a more intimate setting. Also, Fantasia class liners have significantly fewer passengers than new MSC liners.

Princess Cruises Central Pools

And again Princess Cruises and Royal class (Majestic Princess, Regal Princess, Royal Princess, Enchanted Princess, Discovery Princess)! Now we will look at the area with pools in the center of the ship on the 16th deck. This area with outdoor pools and jacuzzis is notable for the fact that during the day and evening you can not only enjoy relaxing in the pool, but also watch a variety of films and programs on one of the largest and most innovative screens. In addition, there is a fountain in the center of the zone, which is specially designed for music shows with light accompaniment.

In this top, we did not include the pools in the SPA zones of the liners, since it is worth giving a separate heading for them. Each company is trying to surpass not only others, but also their previous liners, and this is reflected in the level of spa zones and pools.

Which pools did you like best and which pools would you add to this top?
