Highlights

  • Welcome to Carnival Horizon. The ship is very eager to hit the water and start sailing. So, wherever the sea meets the sky you will find me.

  • Sea to it that you make it to Carnival Horizon’s Seafood Shack. Pun intended because the food available here is worth it: lobsters, rolls, crab cakes, fried clams; We can go on all day. And so can you – this place is open for lunch and dinner.

  • Carnival Horizon’s Havana Bar & Pool, hot-fun/cool-drink-central is located at the back of the ship. But what is so great about that? Head there to get splendid views of the horizon all day and in the evening nothing will come between you and the spectacular sunsets.

Cabins

Cabin categories (with many sub-categories) include interior staterooms, ocean view, balcony, and suites. Each of these categories has a Cloud 9 Spa variation, with complimentary access to all the spa accessories and fitness programs. Eighty percent of the cabins are outside; 80 percent of those staterooms have private balconies. Each cabin has a gift amenity basket in its bathroom.

All staterooms include television, safe, hair dryer, telephone, controllable air-conditioning, bathrobes to wear during your cruise, and Carnival Comfort Bed with plush mattresses, good quality duvets, linens and pillows. You’ll have 24-hour room steward and nightly turndown service. Standard cabins are a good size, most with twin beds that can be converted to king-size bed. Good design and soft lighting add to a feeling of spaciousness in interior staterooms. The Suites are larger depending on level, including large bathroom with twin wash basins, and a whirlpool bathtub. The best suites and cabins are those on the aft-facing decks. Suites qualify for priority check-in at port. There’s also a mini-bar or refrigerator in each suite.
