Ultimate Guide: Carnival Splendor

Carnival Splendor is a regular guest out of Sydney Harbour, sailing year-round out of Sydney. The ship has been a regular fixture of Australian cruises after Carnival announced it would be sending the ship Down Under. She previously sailed the Eastern and Western Caribbean before heading Down Under. 

It was actually once Carnival Cruise Line’s biggest cruise ship, fitting 3012 people at double occupancy and weighing in at 113,000 gross tonnes. However, this was in 2008 and as one might imagine, was surpassed soon after.

It’s well known that Carnival Luminosa, which sails out of Brisbane, was originally designed for Costa Cruises and then transferred to Carnival Cruises. It’s less known that Carnival Splendor was also being constructed for Costa Cruises, but was reassigned to Carnival during construction. 

Splendor serves an important role, as the longest-running Carnival Cruise Line ship in Australia, and the first Carnival ship to return to Australia after the cruise ban. 

The ship recently underwent a dry-dock, where it had some new livery painted, as well as some onboard tweaks.

Whether you’re weighing up whether to sail on Splendor or already have your cruise booked, here’s everything you need to know about what to do onboard: where she sails, how to eat and indulge onboard, and plenty more.

At a glance

If you’re sailing out of Sydney with Carnival Cruise Line, your other option is Carnival Adventure. It’s also a great ship but Splendor is the larger and more modern of the two options.

Splendor has a large range of short and well-valued cruises for those looking to get away for a shorter amount of time. However, Splendor also has a range of New Zealand itineraries, therefore if you’re looking to go Across the Ditch with Carnival, you’ll likely end up on the Splendor. Additionally, Carnival offers longer enrichment voyages known as carnival journeys, featuring unique itineraries with special cultural and culinary events, as well as themed seminars.

Carnivalships generally have more of a lively atmosphere than other cruise lines, it’s a great option for group or family trips, with plenty happening both during the day and also at night, with theme nights and night clubs that stay open into the early hours.

Carnival specialises as a family line, making it perfect for those who want a great kids club to entertain their kids, as well as plenty of family friendly activities onboard like movie nights, water parks, and more. Carnival can still be a great option for those without kids, but you should be prepared to see plenty of kids and for a family atmosphere.

But even if adults are looking for some time on their own, check out the Serenity adult-only Retreat where you can sit back and and relax.

Always prime time for a dip.

Spa, Fitness, and Serenity Adult Only Retreat

The Spa on Carnival Splendor offers a wide range of services, however, these are not included in your cruise fare, meaning you will have to pay extra for a relaxing spa treatment. Guests can pay for massages, the thermal suite, the hydrotherapy pool, facial treatments, a specialised menu spa, a hair & beauty salon, and more. There is also a thalassotherapy pool in the spa.

In terms of fighting against the buffet and drinks package to keep fit onboard, there are plenty of fitness options as well.

Carnival Splendor operates fitness classes, but you can also get fit solo or with your travel party in the fitness centre, a modern gym with plenty of equipment and machines.

If you want to get your heart pumping, there’s a jogging track around the perimeter of the ship, where you can go for a run and enjoy luxuriously panoramic views of the ocean.

Kids Activities at Carnival Splendor

Carnival Splendor has three kids clubs, Camp Ocean, for kids aged from two to 11, Circle C for kids aged 12 to 14 and CLUB 02, a teens lounge for those aged 15-17. 

Each kids club has designated activities for its age group, with younger kids receiving more of an educational focus, whereas teens have a space to hang out, as long as some planned activities and parties. 

Furthermore, very early infant care, for kids younger than two years old also incurs an extra cost.

What to do with your kids at night time?

As outlined in the Carnival Luminosa guide, you will have to incur an additional cost if you want childcare for your children during the nights.

“Most kid’s clubs are included in the price, but if you want your younger kids to be taken care of in the later hours, you’ll have to send them to ‘Night Owls’, where additional costs will be incurred. There are plenty of other activities onboard like the video arcade, build-a-bear workshop, Dr Seuss story time, arts and crafts stations, pools, sports courts, and more that are great for kids.”

It’s a good life for kids onboard Carnival Splendor and there are plenty of amenities to keep the little ones entertained.

Safety and Security 

Carnival security expands across navigational features to keep guests safe from adverse weather events, to onboard safety initiatives to limit any problems onboard.

It is true that Carnival sometimes has an online reputation for fights breaking out, but the truth is that this is very rare in general, and nearly non-existent in Australia on ships like Carnival Splendor and Luminosa. 

You can read here for full details on Carnival’s security features, but the best thing you can do for your safety onboard is pay close attention during safety advisories, familiarize yourself with the ship, and maintain personal hygiene.
