Carnival Inspiration Great Ship for the Price
By CruiseDirector | November 30, 2009
Finding cheap cruise deals on the best ships. It seems that is what the majority of cruisers are looking for in this day and age. So here number one rated ship for the money.
Cruise Ship Ratings # 1 Carnival Inspiration: My wife and I have personally cruised on this ship four times. Three times before the refurbish and one after. The remodelling of this ship is remarkable. It appears as a new ship and for the money you cannot beat these four or five day cruises aboard the Inspiration. Evolutions of Fun refurbishments have been completed onboard the Carnival Inspiration. The enhancements made to the ship include completely redesigned interior decor, newly refurbished showlounges, bars and public spaces. All staterooms have been outfitted with the Carnival Comfort Bed system and have received upgrades in the bathroom, with porcelain sinks. In addition every stateroom has a new interior color scheme and flat screen TVs. Most notably are the additions that have been made to the Lido deck. The Lido restaurant has received a complete cosmetic renovation and new furnishings. The Lido deck itsself has also received a complete re-design. The slide has been removed which provides more walking space on the starboard side of the ship. In addition, spiral staircases were added mid-deck for passengers to descend from the Verandah Deck. The pools were thoroughly cleaned and redesigned with faux palm tree coverings over several bench areas. The whirlpools have also received new tiling and palm tree canopies. The performance stage received a new cover. The largest change is located on the Verandah Deck aft. This area, once home to a small basketball court and a round pool surrounded by a sunning area, is now host to Carnival Waterworks. With a 4 deck high spiral waterslide and an adjacent 82′ racing slide, as well as play areas featuring geysers and other various water play instruments. Another addition is the Serenity Adult area located aft on Promenade deck. The area is designed for guests over eighteen years of age. It includes two hot tubs, and over sized lounge chairs for sun bathing. The four day cruises are as little as $219 per person and the five day is around $239 per person.
