Facilities abound on the Carnival Spirit to meet all tastes when cruising to the various destinations served by this ship. The Atrium is the hub of all the activity on the ship and has the look and feel of that of a lobby in a five-star hotel. Banks of elevators provide easy access to all the upper decks of the ship and it is here you will find the Information Desk and the Shore Excursion Desk. Of course, if you are feeling energetic or want a work out, you can also take the stairs, which lead upward from the Atrium.

The swimming pools are located on Lido Deck and for your added enjoyment and fun, there are three pools to choose from, each of which has adjacent whirlpools. One of the pools has a retractable glass roof so that you can still enjoy your daily swim or sit on the pool deck in times when the weather is not suited to being outside.



If you crave retail therapy on the Carnival Spirit, you won’t be disappointed in the stores along Fashion Boulevard. Here you will find upscale boutiques, jewellery stores and discount stores where you can purchase the few essentials you forgot to bring with you. If you forget to bring formal wear with you for the formal nights on the cruise, the Formality Shop has what you need to get dressed up in fine style.

Nautica Spa not only provides you with the opportunity to work out in the gym or have a pampering treatment of your choice. You can also indulge in having your hair styled to perfection or have a manicure or pedicure in the Beauty Salon.

Relax and curl up with a good book in the Chippendale Library where the decor resembles that of an English garden. In addition to having a selection of books to choose from, this location is also the setting for a bank of computer terminals where you can check your email or surf the net in privacy.

Business travellers have all the facilities they need for business meetings on the Carnival Spirit in the 200-seat conference center on the ship. This room is also the setting for lectures at sea and for various demonstrations offered on the cruise.

Carnival Spirit has a Wedding Chapel so that you truly can be married at sea. When you are sailing in Canadian waters, same-sex marriages can be performed by the captain. Purchase flowers in the Flower Shop or photo at the Photo Gallery. The ship’s photographers will take professional photos and of course, they may just snap your photo at any time during the cruise.

With the self-service laundry and the medical center on board, you won’t even realize that you are floating on the sea in the wealth of facilities you have at your fingertips.
