MIAMI, Jan. 26, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The
Charleston, S.C.-based Carnival
Ecstasy has undergone a multi-million-dollar renovation that has
added a variety of new dining and beverage innovations.
The features were incorporated during a two-week dry dock that
took place from Jan. 10-24, 2017, in
Freeport, The Bahamas.
Following the renovation, the ship returned to Charleston yesterday to resume its year-round
schedule of four- to 10-day departures from that port.
Here's a look at the exciting options that have been added to
Carnival Ecstasy:
- Guy's Burger Joint, a free-of-charge poolside venue
developed in partnership with Food Network personality Guy Fieri serving hand-crafted burgers and
fresh-cut fries enjoyed amidst a décor that celebrates the chef's
California roots and love of car
culture
- BlueIguana Cantina, a complimentary poolside Mexican
eatery where guests can enjoy authentic, freshly made burritos and
tacos on homemade tortillas, as well as an elaborate toppings and
salsa bar
- Alchemy Bar, a "cocktail pharmacy"-themed lounge with
mixologists who "prescribe" concoctions from different elixirs and
ingredients with creative monikers like Forty is the New Twenty and
The Restorative Basil Drop
- Cherry On Top, the
"sweetest spot on board" which celebrates the joys of simple
indulgences with bins of bulk candy, fun fanciful gifts and
novelties, custom apparel and more
The new spaces complement Carnival Ecstasy's wide range of
on-board features, including the poolside RedFrog Rum Bar and
BlueIguana Tequila Bar, a massive WaterWorks aqua park, a Serenity
adults-only retreat, and a luxurious Spa Carnival health and
wellness facility.
Carnival Ecstasy's schedule from Charleston encompasses year-round four- to
seven-day cruises visiting popular destinations throughout The
Bahamas and Caribbean. The
ship will also operate a 10-day Carnival Journeys Caribbean voyage
round-trip from Charleston
