mom2mybugs Posted February 9, 2019 Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 When I went on vision in 2015 I think I remembered the solarium roof being closed the whole time and it was really hot. This summer we will still out of Barcelona on vision and I've been watching a ton of old you tube and scopes and I think I've seen the retractable roof open. This is a solarium deal maker as it will be way hot in the Mediterranean in the summer. Does anyone know if it's usually open outside the Caribbean? Or in the summer? Just curious..

Matt Posted February 9, 2019 Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 In practice, The Solarium roof doesnt retract on these ships. I'd expect it to be closed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twangster Posted February 9, 2019 Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 Don't believe @Matt, he is a solarium-roof-open denier They had the Vision solarium roof open this past January during a port day but not at sea. This was in Miami when we stopped there for the day. You can see the roof open in this scope at the 57 s mark. https://www.periscope.tv/thetwangster/1ypJdOAkVPoGW This is the Vision solarium with the roof open from the scope: Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnaTdi Posted April 28, 2021 Report Share Posted April 28, 2021 Oh man, I have been dreaming about a solarium roof for so much time actually. However, I do not even understand why do you expect the roof to be open, I have never seen a single solarium roof that would actually be open, especially on this kind of ships. I wanted to get a solarium roof for my terrace, however my wife is really ... against this kind of ideas. Well, on the next week, the guys from https://city2surfroofing.com.au/roof-repairs-sydney/ will be at my place, as they will have to repair the roof, and we'll see if we could actually get a solarium roof :D.

Welcome to the message boards! I long for the days when "Will they open the solarium roof this cruise?" was even in the realm of dreams.

mom2mybugs Posted May 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2021 How I miss the time when I started this strand and this was the thing I was worried about! That vision cruise (solarium roof was open!) was the last cruise we were on! Jane KathyC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
