Dining onboard Carnival Splendor is always a culinary event, no matter which venue you choose. From the formal dining rooms, to casual venues and intimate reservations-only supper clubs, you’ll be indulging in some of the best food at sea. Even kids will be able to enjoy the variety of cuisine as the children’s menus feature plenty of hit dishes including spaghetti and meatballs, burgers, hotdogs, pizza, and tasty desserts.
The Gold Pearl and The Black Pearl are the two main dining rooms onboard the ship and offer the option of assigned seating during two sittings or guests can simply walk in when they are hungry. Serving up three courses of beautifully presented food, cruisers can also expect friendly and attentive service, with the Carnival twist of singing and dancing waiting staff. For more casual mealtimes, the Splendido Lido is the place to go for self-serve dishes from around the world. Meanwhile, Mongolian Wok and Masala are two great venues if you want to spice up your food choices.
However, if you’re willing to spend a little more money, Carnival Splendor also offers some more special and intimate dining opportunities.
From March 2025, sailors enjoying an adventure aboard Carnival Splendor will also find a selection of new and improved dining destinations available onboard. These include:
The most difficult part of life onboard Carnival Splendor is choosing which amazing piece of entertainment to go to next. The main venue is the theatre, where guests can expect all-singing, all-dancing live shows by the spellbinding Playlist Productions, while those looking for a night of laughter can head to The Punchliner Comedy Club for family-friendly shows, becoming less PG as the night progresses.
If you enjoy live music, there are also plenty of different venues to try out. From rock and roll at the RedFrog pub to karaoke singalongs at the Piano Bar, there is something to suit every music taste.
Even those who like to enjoy a late night are well catered for onboard the ship, as The Red Carpet, the ship’s club, features live DJs until the early hours of the morning.
One of the biggest draws of Carnival Splendor has always been its abundance of aquatic activities, and this isn’t changing anytime soon. From March 2025, following a refreshment, you’ll be able to enjoy an enhanced Carnival WaterWorks (with all the thrilling slides you know and love), an improved Splashy Cove (a colourful children’s play area), and even a new Thalassotherapy pool in the exquisite Cloud 9 Spa. So, whether you want to jump right into the water, or hang back and relax on one of the surrounding sun loungers, this really is going to be the place to be on the ship.
Fitness and sports enthusiasts will also be delighted by the facilities onboard. From intensive workouts at the state-of-the-art gym, equipped with exercise machines and free weights, to a bit of competition on the sports court, mini-golf course and ping pong tables, there’s something that will get everyone up and moving.
If your idea of the perfect holiday is all about taking it easy, kicking your feet up and watching the stunning scenery go by, then there’s nowhere better to do just that than onboard Carnival Splendor. From the remarkable Cloud 9 Spa, which also offers a steam room and sauna alongside a sensational selection of premium treatments, to the lounges littered with comfortable seating, you’ll find plenty of places to relax onboard. There is even an onboard salon offering grooming services for both men and women.
However, spoiling yourself doesn’t have to stop there. With various shops and boutiques in the atrium, you can pick up a duty-free treat to remind you of the amazing cruise experience. This area also houses a card room, library and internet café, perfect if you want to find some peace and quiet for a little while.
