Deck Enhancements

The Aquatic Club now features six new VIP cabanas, with white curtains and daybeds. These cabanas are designed for those seeking a more exclusive experience while lounging by the pool.

Stairs and additional grab rails have been installed around the pool area to enhance accessibility for sailors entering and exiting the pool. These grab rails are strategically placed at each corner of the pool.

    All of these boats need more/bigger hot tubs

  2. Wasp Star says:

    The netting should be replaced with another pool.

  3. Matt Finnigan says:

    What is the price of the new cabanas?

    1. Working on confirming but heard $600 for the day

  4. Keils says:

    Having sailed a couple of times on this ship in the last year, it really was in need of new furnishings as it was looking rather shabby. I felt that all the wipe clean surfaces on seating(which appeared to have not necessarily been cleaned) looked rather like something you’d find in a soft play area for children. Not very luxurious and a bit tacky and often a bit sticky!

    Interesting changes. The cabanas on deck 16 seem like that it will make it harder for people to attend the sail away / scarlet night.
    Cutting a course at Test Kitchen seems reasonable, but I am not sure that it will make too much extra capacity for people to eat at restaurants given that TK is not to some peoples taste.
    Adding seats to The Athletic Club is good. For the Y2K party, I can’t help but think that I will worry the world will end, but wake up the next day and realise nothing really happened. 🙂

    1. Sounds like they could be used in a scarlet night package. The stairs on the pool also make it harder to view scarlet night package

  6. Kathy Stafford says:

    Hoping much of the seating has been replaced to actually be somewhere comfortable to sit.

  7. Evan says:

    The pool looks even sillier with the rails.

  8. Tanya Cox says:

    Love the new SL 2.0 can’t wait to be on board in 2/2025. The Grounds 2 seating area looks phenomenal I can see myself there frequently.
