SpaCarnival is located on the ship’s uppermost deck (Verandah Deck), just aft of the mast, and is accessed by the center stairway and lifts. It has a gymnasium (with some high-tech muscle-pumping cardio-vascular machines) with views over the ship’s only swimming pool, men’s and women’s changing rooms and saunas. The beauty salon is located in another spot, on America Deck, just aft of the Americana Showlounge.
The spa is operated by Steiner, a specialist concession, whose staff will try to sell you Steiner’s own-brand Elemis beauty products (spa girls have sales targets). Some fitness classes are free, while some, such as yoga, and kickboxing, cost $10 per class. However, being aboard will give you an opportunity to try some of the more exotic treatments (particularly some of the massages available).
Massage (including exotic massages such as Aroma Stone massage, Chakra Balancing massage and other well-being massages), facials, pedicures, and beauty salon treatments are at extra cost (massage, for example, costs about $2 per minute, plus gratuity). Do make appointments as early as possible – aboard a ship so large, time slots go quickly.
