 Carnival Holiday

The Holiday may be the smallest ship in Carnival's fleet, but that doesn't stop her from living up to the "Fun Ship" title. The Holiday packs everything you have come to expect from a Carnival cruise, into her small size. She features a full amenity Spa, gymnasium, casino, Camp Carnival and dance club. Relax at the Wharf bar or have a before dinner drink at The Bus Stop. After dinner, see a fabulous show in the Americana Lounge or visit Rick's piano bar. There is no end of fun on the Carnival Holiday.
