One of Carnival Cruise Lines' Fantasy Class ship, Carnival Imagination can be found cruising round trip from Miami, Florida to the Bahamas and Western Caribbean throughout the year.

Among the many dining options available aboard Carnival Imagination are the main dining rooms (where you can choose between Assigned or Your Time, open, Dining), the Horizon Bar & Grill (featuring buffets, a pizzeria and made-to-order options), a rotisserie grill, as well as 24-hour room service.

While on a Carnival Imagination cruise you're going to have a wonderful variety of entertainment venues and activities to enjoy. For instance, there's a large, two-level show lounge where you can see performances during each night of the cruise (such as comedians, dancers, singers, musicians, acrobats and magicians), as well as a casino, swimming pools, hot tubs, water park, 9-hole mini-golf course, art gallery, library, photo gallery, many bars and lounges, and a full-service spa (Spa Carnival) with beauty salon and fitness center.

Like the rest of the Carnival fleet, Carnival Imagination has a great youth program on board. Camp Carnival is for cruisers ages 2 through 11 and is where your kids can take part in a variety of supervised, fun-filled activities. Circle "C" is for 12 to 14 year olds, and features video games, Karaoke, dance parties and late-night movies. Club O2 is for teens ages 15 to 17 only, and is a great round-the-clock hangout where your teens can make new friends, as well as enjoy music, video games and snacks.

Carnival Imagination emerged from dry dock on September 2016 with all new Fun Ship 2.0 enhancements! Upgrades include the addition of Blue Cantina, Blue Iguana Tequila Bar, Red Frog Rum Bar, Alchemy Bar and Guy's Burger Joint, as well as onboard programs like Camp Ocean and Seuss At Sea.
