Carnival Breeze
|
The Carnival Breeze was launched into Carnival Cruise Line's fleet in 2012 and is the third ship in Carnival's Dream Class. The Carnival Breeze has a double occupancy passenger capacity of 3,690 guests and has a gross tonnage of approximately 130,000.
The layout of the Carnival Breeze, as well as the other two Dream class vessels, is easy to navigate. This self guided tour is meant to be a tool to help you familiarize yourself with the ship’s layout. Many of the ship’s public areas are included in this tour. Please keep in mind, especially on the cruise’s first day, some lounges or places may be closed for various reasons including events such as wedding receptions and other private functions. If something is closed and you wanted to look in that area, consider trying again at another time. I recommend moving to the next part of the tour. The tour works best if followed in order. This tour is not affiliated with any cruise line, ship, travel agency, or travel group. If you find any errors, problems, or areas without clarity please let me know. I want to make this tour as accurate & helpful as possible so please let me know of any problems! Also, please keep in mind public areas are subject to change! |
Starting Point:
To begin this self guided tour go to the Carnival Breeze's atrium lobby, which is on the Lobby Deck (deck 3). The official name of the atrium is The Breeze Atrium.
1. Breeze Atrium Lobby – Lobby Deck 3 This tour begins in the Carnival Breeze's Atrium lobby by the atrium bar. Look up and you will see the many levels of the atrium as well as the glass dome located near the top. The Carnival Breeze's atrium has 4 glass elevators. In the center of the atrium is the atrium bar. Two important areas that you can see from here are the Guest Services desk and the Shore Excursions desk.
If you are looking towards the back of the ship (opposite direction of the atrium elevators) you should see a mini-hallway that leads to the Carnival Breeze's mid-ship dining room. This dining room is the Sapphire Dining Room. The ship has two dining rooms, each with two decks. Besides the Sapphire Dining Room, the Carnival Breeze's aft dining room is known as the Blush Dining Room. Each cruiser is assigned a dining room for dinner and this information will be printed on a cruiser's Sail & Sign card.

Change Deck: Once you have spotted all of these places it is time to change decks. This tour recommends using one of the glass elevators or the stairwell that is in the atrium. The stairwell is spiral shaped. The front elevator area is also close nearby and you can use those too. However, for simplicity purposes it is best to use the atrium stairwell or one of the atrium's glass elevators. Go up one deck level to Deck 4.
2. Mezzanine - Deck 4
Are there staterooms on this deck? There are no staterooms on this deck.
Touring This Deck: Once you are on Deck 4, I recommend circling the atrium. As you circle the atrium you will be in the ship's photo gallery, known as Pixels. If you walk towards the front of this deck you will be on the second level of the Ovation Theater, which is the ship's main show lounge. Playlist Productions shows and other large scale events take place in this lounge.
To continue touring this deck, walk in the direction opposite of the atrium glass elevators. You will see on one side of the ship the entrance to a hallway that will lead towards the middle/back of the ship. This hallway is right by the Library Bar. The Library Bar is a library with a bar. There are some books and games in the library, but this area has a self-service wine machine (bar prices apply). If you walk by the Library Bar take a quick look inside!
If you are walking in the right direction you will pass the Library Bar and be walking out of the photo gallery. Eventually, you will see the side of the Sapphire Dining Room and be walking by large windows that look into the dining room. If this is what you are seeing continue walking towards the back.

Almost immediately after passing the Sapphire Dining Room's side windows you will see a ladies, mens, and unisex restroom on your right. This would be a good time to stop and use the restroom if you need to.
When you are ready to continue moving you will see the entrance to the Casino Annex. The Casino Annex is smoke free. A bar was added during the Carnival Breeze's 2022 dry-dock as well as a cashier station. This area used to be the ship's conference room and Thrill Theater.
Keep walking towards the back of the ship. As you are walking you may notice occasional windows and doors that lead outside. The outside deck area you may see is for CREW only. However, this is part of the area guests would use to board lifeboats in the event of an emergency.

As you continue walking towards the back of the ship, you will see the Blush Dining Room. Nearby you should see the back stairwell and elevator area. From here go to the other side of the ship and look to your right. You should see the ship's arcade. When you are ready to continue moving, you will want to the take the back elevator/stairwell area up to Deck 5.
Change Deck: When you are done looking around this area go to the nearest elevator or stairwell. You are at the back elevator and stairwell area. Take the elevator or walk the stairs up one deck. This will take you to the Promenade Deck, which is Deck 5.

As you keep walking you will come to an area known as the Ocean Plaza. The Carnival Breeze's Ocean Plaza has a small stage, mini dance floor, and several areas to sit. Also, as you walk by this area you will see the Plaza Cafe, which serves sweets and specialty coffees for an extra fee. One the side of the ship opposite of the Plaza Cafe is the Alchemy Bar. This bar allows a guest to have his or her bartender mix up a variety of cock-tails and drinks.
The Ocean Plaza can be used a variety of different events and activities, such as trivia. Sometimes karaoke will take place at the Ocean Plaza. On both sides of the Ocean Plaza you will see doors that lead to the outside. The area outside is called the Lanai and this outside area wraps around the entire Deck 5 of the ship. Outside you will see some hottubs and Guy's Pig & Anchor BBQ. This tour does not include a trip outside, but if you have time later I recommend coming back to check it out.

You will pass through the Carnival Breeze's casino, which is called Winner's Luck Casino. The casino has a minimum age (usually 18) in order to play at the machines and tables.

If you are looking directly at the SeaSide Theater, walk to your right. You will walk by the Blue Iguana Tequila Bar. Keep walking towards the back.
You should eventually reach the Blue Iguana Cantina, which is one of the Carnival Breeze's Lido eateries. The Blue Iguana Cantina serves tacos and burritos, but the type of each depends on whether it is breakfast or lunch. This is a complimentary eatery! Outside of the ordering counter there is a salsa bar for guests to use. Across from this eatery on the other side of the ship is Guy's Burger Joint, which is also complimentary. This tour does not include a stop at Guy's Burger Joint. For the purposes of this tour, continue walking towards the back.

5. SPA & Sports Deck - Deck 12
Are there staterooms on this deck? Yes, this deck includes some staterooms. However, most of this deck is public outside spaces.
Touring This Deck: After getting off the elevator or stairwell you will be on the Deck 12 level of the Carnival Breeze's atrium. This is the highest level of the ship's atrium. If you look towards the front of the ship you should be able to see the Carnival Breeze's SPA/Gym facilities entrance. This tour does not include the gym or SPA, but the SPA's staff members typically are happy to give tours on the first day of the cruise!
After you get off the elevator or stairwell you will see doors to lead to the outside. Once you step outside you see the Carnival Breeze's WaterWorks waterslides and splash pad. Once you get to the WaterWorks area, take a minute and look up at the slides. The Carnival Breeze has two large waterslides. One is called the Twister and the other is called the DrainPipe. The Twister Waterslide has many twists and turns. The DrainPipe waterslide ends in the guest going around a large bowl in circles. From personal experience, I can say both slides are fun! The entrance to the DrainPipe and Twister Waterslides can be found on Deck 15. In addition, the WaterWorks has a racing slide. The Deck 12 level of the WaterWorks has a small slide for younger kids and a SplashPad!
Start walking towards the back (go in the direction of the ship's funnel). You will see the Carnival Breeze's jogging track. At times you may have to walk on it to continue to the front. Be careful and watch for people using the track! Keep walking towards the front.
You will eventually arrive to an area on the Carnival Breeze called SportsSquare. SportsSquare consists of the mini-golf course as well as the ropes course. The Carnival Breeze's ropes course offers guests a chance to get a great view of the ocean while going around a ropes course. Different parts of the ropes course have a varying degree of difficulty. The hours for SportsSquare are published in the Carnival Breeze's daily Fun-Times newsletter and on the Carnival Hub app.
