Somebody at Carnival knows just what you need, and it’s pretty much exactl....y the Serenity Adult-Only Retreat™. Look, you’ll still be on the same ship as the kids, the hoopla, and all the Carnival-style excitement… but you could easily forget, because when you’re at Serenity you could not be further from it all. The world you’ll find yourself in is one of complete peace, sea breezes and, of course, a nearby bar. It’s the place to get done the kind of stuff you just can’t seem to do anywhere else — reconnect with your partner, finish that book, or do absolutely, blissfully, nothing at all.

When you’re ready to take a break from relaxing, get down to some action a....t the sports court.

Whether you’re warming up for action, or cooling down afterwards, you can enjoy family-friendly games like foosball or mini-golf. Sidelines is the shaded courtside seats that are a great place to watch the action or just take a break.
