One of the youngest, largest and most feature-filled ships in Carnival Cruise Lines' fleet, Carnival Splendor sails year-round to the Mexican Riviera from Long Beach, California, doing 7-night cruises. She emerged from dry dock in March, 2016, where she received Carnival Fun Ship 2.0 enhancements, such as 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!

Carnival Splendor was the first ship to feature Carnival's Cloud 9 Spa accommodations. Guests staying in these staterooms and suites receive special spa benefits, such as private access to the Cloud 9 Spa and come with exclusive spa amenities - two fitness classes per individual (up to 2 people) and priority in booking spa appointments.

There are many entertainment venues and things to do aboard Carnival Splendor. For instance, Spectacular Spectacular is the ship's three-level main show lounge, featuring a variety of live performances during each evening. Possible shows include comedians, musicians, singers, acrobats, game shows (often involving the participation of guests that have volunteered to do so) and even elaborate Broadway-style productions. If you're feeling lucky while on a Carnival Splendor cruise you should be happy to hear that the large Royal Flush Casino is on board, offering popular games such as blackjack, roulette, craps, poker and slot machines. Also on board are swimming pools, hot tubs, many bars and lounges, and a fantastic Splash Park for kids.

As far as dining goes, there's a wonderful selection of venues to choose from while on a Carnival Splendor cruise. There are the main dining rooms, The Lido Restaurant (featuring a large buffet), The Pinnacle Steakhouse (an optional and upscale specialty restaurant, with a per person cover charge). Please keep in mind that besides all of these options, there's always the convenient 24-hour room service.

Ship Highlights

Seuss at Sea
Starting in February 2014, Carnival Splendor will be featuring the brand new Seuss at Sea program. Children onboard can meet all of their favorite Dr. Seuss characters like the Cat in the Hat and Horton from Horton Hears a Who. Families can enjoy the Green Eggs and Ham breakfast and the Seuss-a-Palooza Story Time which will feature specialty Dr. Seuss foods, character photo opportunities, and memories that will last a life time.

Cloud 9 Spa
This is Carnival Splendor's spectacular 21,000-square foot, two-level spa and fitness facility (that features state-of-the-art exercise equipment and classes such as yoga and Pilates). Among the many treatments that are available at the Cloud 9 spa are massages, body wraps, a cellulite reduction program, aroma stone therapy, facials, a Thalassotherapy Pool (featuring massaging jets of warm mineral salt water) and acupuncture. Also in this area of the ship is a beauty salon, offering a variety of services for both men and women.

Carnival's Seaside Theatre
A huge outdoor movie theater, with a 12' x 22' LED screen and a powerful 70,000-watt sound system, Carnival's Seaside Theatre is one of impressive innovations that Carnival Cruise Lines has bestowed upon many of their ships (including Carnival Splendor). Among the many possible shows that play at this venue are movies, concerts and sporting events.

Serenity Adult-Only Retreat
Those looking for some rest and relaxation while on a Carnival Splendor cruise should consider spending some time at this kid-free oasis. It's a great place to just catch some sun, laying on one of the many comfortable lounge chairs (under the shade of a large umbrella, if you wish), or to take a dip in a whirlpool.

Twister Waterslide
While on a Carnival Splendor cruise, you'll have the opportunity to take a ride down the ship's three-deck high waterslide. It's sure to provide you, your friends and family with a fun-filled time as you all splash and slide down it.
