Carnival Spirit

Carnival Spirit may not have many bells and whistles or a sleek and sexy design, but it has more than enough to keep your entertained, fed and watered. The Green Thunder water slide has long been Carnival's "child magnet" point of difference, and the free poolside food venues (and self-service soft-serve ice-cream machines) are very family-friendly. In our opinion, all of the dining exceeds expectations for such a mass-market ship, from the buffet to Chef's Table.
