Carnival Paradise is a Fantasy-class ship launched in 1998, the #30 ship in the Carnival fleet by size, with 10 passenger decks and an interior refresh from an October 2023 dry dock. Days revolve around the Resort Pool on deck 10, ringed by poolside favorites Guy's Burger Joint, Blue Iguana Cantina and the RedFrog Rum Bar. One level up, WaterWorks adds racing and spiraling slides, including the Twister Waterslide, while Mini Golf sits higher still. Evenings bring Broadway-style shows in the Normandie Main Lounge, professional comedians at The Punchliner Comedy Club and late dancing at the Rex Dance Club, a nightclub reserved for grown-ups. The America Piano Bar runs on sing-alongs, the Leonardo Lounge is wrapped in Renaissance-style murals, and kids and teens have Camp Ocean, Circle C and Club O2.
With two sea days on this sailing, there's time for Hair & Beauty Salon, Circle C and Bonsai Sushi Express.
