Rakaia Posted March 27, 2022 Report Share Posted March 27, 2022 Hi all! Bit of a strange question I've got.....what kind of chemicals/strength of chemicals are typically found in the hot tubs and/or pools on Oasis of the Seas? I'm asking because on a previous cruise (Norwegian Sun) the chemicals in the water completely ruined my bathing suits (bleached them out). I've also cruised on Princess in the past and didn't notice this. As I've never cruised RC (my first experience is coming up in May), I'm wondering if they use products known to bleach....has anyone noticed their suits bring affected? I'll definitely leave my good suits at home if so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rakaia Posted March 28, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2022 Mmmhmm. Helpful. But for those that want to hit the hot human marinade tubs (and or/pool?); does anyone have experience with how chemical-y they are?

I don't find them to be that bad - I have been in some that bothered me in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a chance I'd get in with anyone else on board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First on Harmony and then on Ovation a couple of my wifes bathing suits were bleached out by the chemicals. We have another cruise on Symphony and will leave the good suits at home.

TracyRevell Posted March 29, 2022 Report Share Posted March 29, 2022 I think the chemicals are reasonably strong from experience, which isn't a bad thing with the volume of people going in and out of them. Pooch and PRebecca 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fine with them being strong myself. I think I'll stick to my light colored swimsuits. I've seen people stick their heads under water in hot tubs.....now that's yuk!

CrznTxn Posted March 30, 2022 Report Share Posted March 30, 2022 The chemicals for the hot tubs are strong considering the environment and they use chlorine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
