Carnival Encounter showcases many of our favorite features alongside a variety of exciting new additions you're sure to enjoy.
Treat yourself by booking a suite or mini-suite, and along with a range of fantastic perks, select rooms will unlock access to the Byron Beach Club—our exclusive new retreat featuring a pool, spas, and cozy seating on the ship’s top deck. Take in sweeping views while indulging in pure relaxation and elevated service for dining reservations, shore excursions, embarkation, and disembarkation. Guests will savor a laid-back breakfast at Angelo’s and healthy selections from the Byron Beach menu throughout the day.
Discover the culinary delights of Australian celebrity chef Luke Mangan at Luke’s Bar & Grill. Start with a sophisticated cocktail at Luke’s Bar before dinner. For a more laid-back vibe, head poolside to Deck 14 and try Luke’s Burger Bar for delicious al fresco burgers or grab a slice at the P&O Pizzeria.
The Lobby on Deck 5 is our new go-to spot from morning to night—a perfect place to unwind and watch the ship’s world drift by. Pick your favorite drink, a snack, a quick lunch, or a cheese platter from three fantastic bars. We’re confident the Lobby will become your new favorite hangout too. If you’re craving something livelier, head up to Altitude, our nightclub on Deck 18.
Enjoy familiar favorites like Waterfront, Angelo’s, and Dragon Lady, or keep it casual at The Pantry. Don’t miss the new Carnival Trattoria on Level 7, serving up rustic, family-friendly Italian dishes and freshly made pizza in a warm, relaxed setting where great food, good wine, and excellent service come together. For a child-free escape, visit the Oasis for a cocktail with a stunning view of the ship’s wake, unwind at the mellow Ocean Bar, or enjoy an authentic pub vibe at Encounter Hotel.
By night, take your pick from live entertainment and vibrant Carnival signature production shows, such as Blanc de Blanc, a dazzling treat for the senses.
