Carnival Inspiration ®

From the moment you step into the Grand Atrium, you’ll realise that it isn’t just a room with a high ceiling — it’s a place of high art. Your dinner at one of the two main dining rooms is more than just a dish in front of you — it’s the result of our chefs’ culinary creativity. And the Paris and Candlelight Lounges aren’t just rooms with some seats and a stage — they’re spots for the performers to transport you to another place and time.

Nothing inspires relaxation quite like having the kids somewhere else entirely… and that dedication to adult chill time describes the Serenity Adult-Only Retreat to a ‘T.’ But when it’s time to reunite, nothing inspires families to squeals, screams and splashes like a good waterslide… something the onboard Carnival WaterWorks knows a thing (or two, to be precise) about.

All of the above and everything else you love about a Carnival cruise — from food to pools to comfy rooms — live on this ship, one where you can’t help but find that creative spirit behind all the fun around you.

Our SuperLiners all feature staterooms above ocean level for a more comfortable cruise.
