 Carnival Imagination

The Carnival Imagination is the fifth of the Fantasy - class ships. She looks a lot different now than she did during her inaugural cruise in 1995. As part of Carnival's 250 million dollar project for this class of ships, called "Evolutions of Fun", the Carnival Imagination has been re-imagined. This fun ship now has a Water Park featuring a four story, 300 ft. water slide, and a children's water play area, to name a few of the new additions. The main Lido deck pool has been been upgraded to a resort style pool. They didn't forget the adults during this ship's transformation. Men and women alike will enjoy the new Serenity Adult Retreat Area that is complete with two new whirlpools.

    Overall this cruise experience rates as a 4 out of 10. It's an older ship but it was very clean. There is always someone cleaning even late at night. I HATE that it's only 2 irons onboard the ship...read more

    I have to say that the cruise was horrible. The service was lousy. The ship was filthy. Very noisy bands in the mall areas at night. Doesn't anyone check the decibel levels? There was even a brawl...read more
