Beach Pool Pools are places where the good times flow, and to make sure Carnival Breeze has enough good times for all, we’re including two pools. The resort-style pool provides the best seat in the house for kicking back and enjoying whatever’s playing at Carnival’s Seaside Theatre.
Tides Pool Carnival Breeze’s aft pool area is the ultimate place to take a dip – in the pool or hot tub – while taking in the stunning scenery. 
Carnival’s Seaside Theatre: Here’s the plot: You, watching a movie, on a giant screen, outdoors… while relaxing in a pool, or maybe lounging on a beach chair. Sound like a script you can get behind? Great – the role is yours! Get over to wardrobe (a bathing suit will do just fine) and then head to Carnival Breeze’s Seaside Theatre, where the viewing experience may trump just about all others you’ve experienced.
Serenity Adult Only Retreat All grown up with no place to go? Not so! Carnival Breeze’s Serenity area lets adults spend time with other adults, far away from both stress and, you know, kids. We call it ‘Serenity’ for a reason and we mean it, so if you’re a relaxation enthusiast, this is the place you’ll want to be.
Ocean Plaza Ocean Plaza is the centrally-located perfect place to meet, eat, drink, and be entertained in an indoor/outdoor, islandy setting. Enjoy a full bar, coffee bar, or even snack bar… and of course, our FunHub Internet cafe.
Winner’s Luck Casino: Carnival Breeze’s Winner’s Luck Casino is the glitzy, glamorous place where even just passing through gives you that winner’s vibe.
Carnival Breeze: Dining
Let your taste buds take flight and land where they may – you can’t go far without running into food worth stopping to sample. You won’t have to go anywhere to eat if you don’t want to, either – the food fun features complimentary 24-hour room service, so tasty options come straight to you.
Blush Dining Room, Sapphire Dining Room The choice is yours at one of our main dining rooms. Eat early, late, or whenever you like and enjoy our new menu, including a variety of enticing entrees, appealing appetizers and delectable desserts, with special options for vegetarians, kids, and anyone looking for options low in fat, sodium or cholesterol.

Fat Jimmy’s C-Side BBQ Reminiscent of a backyard barbeque, this complimentary open-air dining venue located on Promenade Deck offers a mouth-watering array of grilled favorites including bbq chicken breast, kielbasa, Italian sausage and Fat Jimmy’s Signature item, pulled pork sandwiches along with traditional sides like corn muffins, baked beans, potato salad and coleslaw.
Bonsai Sushi Carnival’s first full-service sushi bar, Bonsai Sushi offers a wide variety of Asian-inspired delicacies with a contemporary decor featuring artwork by world-renowned graffiti artist Erni Vales, colorful koi kites flown during impromptu celebrations and of course, several Bonsai trees. Located along Promenade deck, Bonsai includes a number of varieties of sushi, sashimi and rolls along with bento boxes and the venue’s own interpretation of a sushi boat – in this case a sushi “ship” with prices ranging from $1 for appetizer-sized portions to $15 for a sushi ship for two.
Cucina del Capitano Seeking inspiration for a unique family-style dinner experience, we looked no further than our own crew. Many of our ships’ officers and captains are Italian, and they know a thing or two about delicious dining! For a nominal fee you can get more than a taste of this world of authentic flavor.
Guy’s Burger Joint – any foodie knows Guy’s show on the Food Network Diners, Drive In’s and Dives…now you can enjoy fresh-made burgers, hand cut fries and innovative toppings created in partnership with Guy Fieri. Looks like they did a great job in making it look like the set of his cooking show!
BlueIguana Cantina – offering authentic tacos and burritos that can be personalized by diners at an extensive salsa and toppings bar. Don’t forget the amazing tequila and cold Mexican beer.
“The Comfort Kitchen” – New Venue located within Lido Marketplace offering American style comfort food.
Sea Dogs – a hot dog shaped cart within the SportsSquare offering all-beef franks and traditional toppings. (This will not begin until the ship reaches Miami)
The Punchliner Comedy Brunch: The Punchliner Comedy Brunch is presented by George Lopez. Not that he’ll be there, but he gave Carnival’s huevos rancheros the thumbs-up and even approved the comedy talent performing multiple shows per day. Your job? Laugh and chew your food, which isn’t always easy. We think you can handle it… but George is skeptical. We’ve even picked up a few food tips from George and his Mexican heritage — most dishes were inspired by (and a few even created by) the man himself!
Fahrenheit 555: Steakhouse For a nominal fee, sink your teeth into some prime dry-aged USDA beef, or choose from a variety of seafood entrees, gourmet appetizers, salads and soups. Extensive wine list and dessert options are even available.
Carnival Breeze: Spa & Fitness
Cloud 9 Spa Work up a sweat, or experience the ultimate in relaxation at our two-level spa. There you’ll find a sauna, a fitness center with classes ranging from Yoga to Pilates, and even a beauty salon featuring treatments like massages and facials. Don’t miss Cloud 9 Spa’s thermal suites, and an amazing Thalassotherapy pool.
SportSquare SportSquare gives your inner champion a place to run wild! Basketball? Soccer? Jogging? Strength training? Can you say “check check check check?” Even if your inner champion is more laid-back, there’s even mini golf, foosball, table tennis and more. Spectators are welcome, and anyone can take a breather at the sports bar. We even see the return of Carnival Magic’s game-changing first ropes course at sea.
Carnival Breeze: Clubs & Lounges
Ovation Main Show Lounge Sit back and enjoy musical and stage productions. Sit forward for interactive activities like bingo, trivia and other games. And sit on the edge of your seat while experiencing action-packed, feature-length 3D movies!

Piano Bar 88 Relax in our swanky, jazzy bar space, complete with live music… and what’s more, don’t be surprised to find yourself in a sing-along!
Carnival Breeze: Youth Programs
Kids can be a whirlwind of excitement and energy, and on a ship this cool, who can blame them? Our youth program staff is trained to help younger cruisers harness their enthusiasm for all things fun, giving the little ones – and the slightly less-little ones – a chance to meet future friends while having an age-appropriate, supervised blast in Carnival Breeze’s multiple youth spaces. Activities, special teen-only shore excursions, movie nights and more round out the experience that they won’t soon forget.
Camp Carnival Camp Carnival is the place where the youngest cruisers – ages 2 through 11 – can have the best time, featuring games, finger painting, story time, movies and more… all in a supervised environment, while their parents can be off having fun of their own. The fun doesn’t end at bed time, either; Carnival’s babysitting program offers, for a fee, a fun late-night option for kids while their parents stay out until as late as 3 A.M.
Circle ‘C’ Video games, scavenger hunts, and especially dance parties, are always a blast, but may be even more fun at sea. From all of these at Circle “C”, to getting outside with sports, pool parties and special shore excursions, young teens 12-14 enjoy more of what they love… and best of all, enjoy it with teens their own age!
Club O2 One of the hottest destinations on board Carnival Breeze is Club O2, but there’s only one way in: be between 15 and 17 years old! Teens can enjoy the latest music with exclusive dance parties… video gaming and movies from the club’s comfy seating, with video monitors all over the place. They’ll even have fun outside of the club, with pool parties, team sports and special teen-only shore excursions.
Video Game Room You know you’re awesome, and you’ve got the high score to prove it. Carnival Breeze’s video game room brings out the winner in everybody, with not only a slew of the latest arcade games, but a selection of classic analog favorites like air hockey. There are fun times for all here, but bring a skilled friend for the ultimate two-player challenge. The ship sets sail on June 3rd from Venice and arrive into Barcelona on June 15th. Carnival Breeze will then operate a summer schedule of Mediterranean cruises from Barcelona through October 25th, 2012. The ship will then sail on a 15-day transatlantic voyage from Barcelona to Miami, positioning the vessel for year round 6 and 8 day Caribbean cruises starting on November 24, 2012. Carnival Breeze will be the largest ship ever based in South Florida.
