The Lido Deck on Deck 17 of the Sun Princess blends relaxation, entertainment, and culinary delight, setting a new standard for cruise ship leisure spaces. This innovative deck features a dynamic layout with multiple pools, extensive seating areas, and diverse food and drink options, creating an exceptional environment for guests to unwind.

Design and Layout

The Lido Deck is anchored by two large pools, separated by a gracefully curving walkway that enhances both functionality and aesthetics. The curving pathways are illuminated by strategically placed lighting, highlighting their graceful lines and enhancing the ambiance, particularly at night. Guests can also enjoy movies shown on the big screen in the evening.

Adjacent to the pools are expansive wading areas with comfortable loungers for relaxation and sunbathing. Large hot tubs offer additional luxurious relaxation opportunities.

Poolside Bars and Dining Outlets

Three distinct poolside bars service the deck’s vibrant atmosphere. The Sea View Bar, on Deck 18, offers breathtaking views and a curated drink selection.

On Deck 17, Coffee & Cones and THE MIX bars are lively social spots. Coffee & Cones provides quick snacks and ice cream, while THE MIX offers a versatile beverage menu. Their midship placement ensures easy access from the pools and sunbathing areas.

Food Venues

Adjacent to the pool area, fast food venues cater to various tastes. These include Lido Slice (pizza), Lido Tacos, Lido Grill, Lido Greens (salads), and Lido Bar. Positioned to serve the midship pool areas, these venues offer diverse dining options without detracting from the deck’s aesthetic.

Each venue’s design harmonizes with the deck’s theme, using cohesive materials and soft lines to create inviting spaces that encourage guests to linger.
