Spa Carnival
Fitness Center
A fitness center where working out is fun. While you lift or pedal or climb, you'll have panoramic views of the sea through huge picture windows. Plus, when you feel you've toned enough, enjoy the hot vapors of the steam room or the energizing dry heat of the cedar-scented sauna. Activities include aerobics/aquarobics, yoga, Pilates, spinning, jogging track, state-of-the-art equipment, weight lifting and personal fitness analysis.
Body Treatments
You will love the massages and be soothed with emollients, renewed with defoliants, relaxed with hot stones or aromatherapy. The range of treatments includes massages, body wraps, facials, loofah treatments, special spa packages, steam rooms, water therapies and thermal suites.
Salon
This is your time to be spoiled, indulged and beautified. Want a new hairstyle? Just tell the Carnival Salon what you like. Thinking of changing your hair color? They are experts at that. And for men who don't like to think of it as the beauty salon can call it the barber shop. Choices include hairstyling, hair cutting and coloring, eye brow shaping, waxing, manicures, pedicures, facial treatments and grooming for men.
Dining
Find your favorite spot in the main restaurant and order whatever you want from new menus every day. For cappuccino, espresso and your choice of world-famous teas, every ship has a European-style café - and don't ignore the freshly baked pastries and the huge hot fudge sundae selection. Every ship also features a complimentary sushi bar and a New York-style deli. And many also have a convivial wine bar with superb vintages from around the world. And you can stay slim with the low-fat, low sodium and low cholesterol meal choices at Spa Carnival.
Casual Dining
From the Lido Buffet to the Bistro to the 24-hour Pizzeria to 24-hour Room Service, Carnival abounds in Casual Dining. Children's menus feature plenty of kid-pleasing favorites including spaghetti and meatballs, hotdogs, pizza, fresh fruit, assorted desserts and much more.
Elegant Dining
After a full day of onboard "Fun Ship" activities or exploring one of the beautiful destinations, try the Main Dining Room. Sit down, relax and enjoy a true culinary experience featuring savory selections, including fresh lobster and an extensive wine list.
Carnival's reservations-only Supper Club, with a Manhattan-chic setting and a menu that includes steakhouse favorites is guaranteed to be your favorite dining spot. Take in the atmosphere, fill up on tasty and luxurious meal offerings and dance to live music. It's a special night of dinner and dancing you'll never forget.

Outdoor Activities
Day or night, you can find a spot on deck and check out Carnival's Seaside Theatre’s huge outdoor screen. Watch the biggest stars shine in hit movies, sporting events and even cartoons for the kids.
On deck there are pools, waterslides, a basketball court, a 9-hole golf course and more. This may sound like your neighborhood country club but no membership fees are required here. All you need to do is step out on deck during your "Fun Ship" cruise. The soothing sounds of the calypso band surround you as you grab a cold, tropical cocktail and lounge on the sun-kissed deck.
For pure relaxation, read a book or unwind at the Serenity Adults-Only Retreat.
