About Carnival Paradise

We broke the mold after we made this one. The final Fantasy class cruise ship ever created, Carnival Paradise is proof that there’s plenty of fun to be found long before you reach your dream destination.

This ship remains classic Carnival — fun-packed from bow to stern — but on the other hand, we’ve never stopped adding fresh new features. So now you can grab something cold, or sweet… or maybe even hot, at JavaBlue™ Café. Meet the new Cloud 9 Spa™, featuring a full menu of, ahhh, spa treatments. We also added a Bonsai Sushi Express™, so you can take your fresh sushi, sashimi, rolls and more, to go, someplace fun.

By the way, on Carnival Paradise you’ll find great times in and near the H2O courtesy of pools, hot tubs and even a Carnival WaterWorks™ waterpark featuring a huge spiraling slide, plus a pair of racing slides. At Seuss at Sea™ the characters always make a splash with an interactive storytime and parade, plus this ship features three age-perfect youth programs. Great live entertainment, like The Punchliner Comedy Club™, Playlist Productions™ and piano bar, happens up on stage… bravo!

If you’re talking tasty classics, you’re going to find two of our top casual spots: Guy’s Burger Joint™, featuring the goods from Guy Fieri, and BlueIguana Cantina™, with authentic south-of-the-border taco/burrito goodness. Refreshments — and good times — abound with RedFrog Rum Bar® and BlueIguana Tequila Bar™. And a little closer to home (well, your vacation home), Carnival Paradise features even more balcony staterooms than before. Feel that breeze!

Spend a vacation aboard Carnival Paradise, and you’ll find a little slice of cruise paradise at sea.
