Carnival Imagination Refurbishment 2016

Hey cruisers, I’m Sheri with Cruise Tips TV. If you watch our vlogs, you’ve heard that our next cruise will be on Carnival Imagination. We’ve sailed the Imagination before, but she’s getting a makeover, and we thought it would be nice to share some of the Funship 2.0 refurbishments with you! Carnival Imagination is in dry dock as we speak, being nipped, tucked and beautified, which is welcome news for cruisers on the west coast. Here’s a little list of what Carnival is adding: Guys Burger Joint! You’ve heard of Guy Fieri, the chef on Food Network who loves burgers and cars! Yep, we’ll taste our FIRST Guys Burger on board. If you’ve had one, leave your suggestions on WHICH burger we should order, in the comments below. Also on the makeover list, The BlueIguana Cantina. Now, I love homemade tortillas and I heard their breakfast burritos are wicked. I can’t wait to belly up to the salsa bar of this Mexican eatery! Another outdoor venue coming to Imagination is Carnival’s trusty Red Frog rum bar. I’m expecting Caribbean vibes here, and maybe a trip to the tap to try Thirst Frog Red. Of course if you’ve been there, feel free to recommend a cocktail or beer in the comments below. Oh, did I mention that Guys Burgers, Blue Iguana and the Red Frog are all poolside? Totally cool. Alright, on to the next decadent addition, and my personal favorite, the Alchemy Bar. The Alchemy Bar is a clever cocktail pharmacy, where white coat wearing mixologists concoct mostly martinis with fun names like “Forty is the New 20”. My favorite though, is the Restorative Basil drop. I’m hoping that Imagination will offer martini tasting again, like they did when we sailed on the Miracle. Guessing your martini flavor is a ton of fun, and the price is GREAT! Now, back to poolside fun, the Blue Iguana Tequila bar is also coming to this ship during the refurb. I’m excited to see the margarita menu at this place. Again, be sure to tell me about your favorite concoction at this spot. And finally, this last one is a bulk candy lovers dream; “Cherry on Top”. This space doubles as a gift shop selling other Carnival brands too, so we’ll be sure to check it out for you, possibly several times… Well friends, what do you think of these new venues? Leave your thoughts below, and until next time, we’ll see you on the high seas!
