Ship experiences
Food and Dining
Coffee Bar
They always had really good pastries first thing in the morning. The coffee was way better here than getting it on the buffet.
Alchemy Bar
Diana's Blackberry Drink was the best I had on the ship. She was making it with tequila but I don't like tequila so she made mine with vodka and it was amazing. Super strong!
Monet Restaurant
Ate here during Seaday brunch. Telly was a great waiter.
Guy's Burger Joint
What can you say? It's a Guys Burger! So good! Service was fast. This place stays packed!
Renoir Restaurant
I had the best people waiting on me! Trinidad, Teresa and Frederick were so attentive. I never had to wait long for my food or drinks. They always greatest me by name even when we were off ship on Half Moon Cay.
Vincent's Bar
Just stopped here for a drink. Good drinks. Fast service
Steakhouse
The food here was good. I think I enjoyed the bread and butter, Yukon gold mash and Mac and cheese better than the actual steak I ordered though. The steak was cooked well, but I enjoyed the steak in the main dining room better. It just had a better flavor and less fat. Maybe I just ordered the wrong cut of steak so that's why I'm not really gonna complain. 🤔
Red Frog Rum Bar
Stopped in here after getting a bite to eat for a drink. The drinks are strong! Very nice bartenders!
BlueIguana Cantina
I ate here a couple times. Had the chicken tacos. The tortillas were always made fresh.
Pizza Pirate
Who doesn't like pizza! Especially when you are enjoying the adults only swimming pool and a few drinks.
Lido Marketplace
I only ate here once. For breakfast the last day. It was ok. I normally eat elsewhere just because I'm on vacation and want a sit down meal. But the choices for breakfast were good. The food was hot. And the place was constantly being cleaned.
The Carnival Deli
I had the ham and cheese a couple of times. It was very good. Love the fries there as well. Good service each time.
Onboard Activities
Guest Services / Shore Excursions
Everyone I encountered at the Shore Excursions desk were very helpful. Took care of my needs quickly. Guests services may have been busy, but they were always kind and helpful. I never really had much of an issue so I just waited to go when the line was down or there was no line at all.
Photo Gallery
I took full advantage of Elegant night and all the different backgrounds. The photographers were super. I had a hard time choosing the pictures I loved best. Do yourself a favor and get a photo package before you cruise. 😉
The Sky Pool
Very nice place to cool off in the heat of the day. Great place to get drinks as well with the waiters walking around. Especially Ian!! He was one in a million! A+++++
The Fun Shops
Lots of great deals throughtout.
Spa Carnival
I took a tour of the spa and decided I definitely needed a massage. Grace was the best ever!! I got a 75 minute Swedish Massage with hot stone massage. I was very relaxed afterwards. Definitely recommend going to see Grace.
Impressionist Boulevard
Love to sit here and people watch.
Serenity
I like the Serenity Deck. But I feel like they need more umbrellas for shade or more clam shells. The clam shells fill up so fast and people just leave their things in them and are gone for a long time without regard to others wanting to use them.
Painter's Library
Love to just sit in here for some peace and quiet.
Cherry On Top
I went in for just a moment. I think they could make this a bigger place. But still it's not bad.
The Stars Pool
You can't go wrong when you have an adults only pool and you actually make sure that only adults use it. Way to go Carnival!!! A++++
Sunflower Atrium
My favorite place!
Entertainment
The Studio Atrium
I liked the bar here. It was my first stop when I got on the ship. I enjoyed all the fun things the fun squad did here. Plus the trio violinists.
Toulouse-Lautrec Main Lounge
Saw a few good performances. Loved the Love and Marriage show! Supper funny!! Zack was hilarious 😂

Ship tip
If you haven't sailed on her, research her. Learn the layout. Learn what places are open to eat when you first get onboard because they are not open all the time. Check out Deck 10 BBQ place. Don't always listen to bad reviews, judge for yourself. Have fun!
