Celebrity Cruises’ Solarium Pools
Peace, serenity, relaxation – this pool will feel like your own private haven. Located onboard the luxury cruise line’s Solstice-class ships, the Solarium Pool combines upscale design with luxurious lounges, a refreshing pool, and two bubbling hot tubs. With no kids and no weather worries, this adults-only, glass atrium enclosed retreat is a perfect cruise ship corner to while away your days at sea.

Holland America Line’s Hydro Pools
The Eurodam and Nieuw Amsterdam provide an escape from the masses in the spa’s therapeutic hydro pool, practically guaranteed to cure what ails you. Not only is it filled with warm, mineral-rich water, but this indoor enclave is closed to children, meaning swimmers find nothing but tranquility while they soak in impeccably-designed surroundings.

Hapag-Lloyd Cruises’ Europa 2
Europa 2‘s pool is large enough for swimming laps – even if that just means drifting leisurely from end to end. The spacious deck is an ideal spot to settle in, especially with a retractable glass roof to ensure perfect climates no matter the weather. For extra privacy, reserve a daybed and create your own little poolside retreat. And, once night falls, return for evening parties and events under an endlessly starry sky.

Silversea’s Silver Spirit
Grab an oversize towel and spend the day on Silver Spirit’s sprawling pool deck. Teak chaise lounges invite hours of downtime, while three bubbling whirlpools and the heated pool are all tempting options for a dip. You don’t even have to get up for a meal, with poolside menu options from the Bar & Grill.
