Carnival
Paradise is cruise ship part from the fleet of Carnival Cruises
till 1998. The cruise ships, from this class offer really amazing
cruises and really beautiful vacations on board. The overall length
of the cruise ship is 260.60 meters and the maximum beam is 36.00
meters. These measurements, together with the draft of 7.70 meters
are giving good visual notion about the looking of this beauty.
The cruise ship Carnival Paradise has gross tonnage of 70,390 gross
tons and full capacity for 2,052 passengers on board. The ship is
really large and spaceful. The staff on board is 920 crew members
and the service is really perfect. The height to the top deck is
40.40 meters and in these dimensions are situated all 1,020 passengers’
cabins and 523 crew cabins. The ship really is large and there is
enough space for large public places. And so large ship should be
driven by something as large as her. The main engines of Carnival
Paradise are six Wartsila 12 V 38 medium speed diesel engines, which
are giving the power 47,520 kW (6x7,920 kW). These engines are enough
for the ship’s movement and ship’s equipment. They also
produce enough electricity for living on the ship and all of entertainments
on board.
But many times I told that cruise ships are not only
dimensions, engineering and navigation. Cruise ships are designed
to entertain the people on board. And Carnival Paradise, just like
all other ships of Carnival Cruises, are doing this job perfectly.
The whole vacation on board of this cruise ship can be spent on
one breath. The staterooms are divided into different categories,
when we start from the upper decks. There are situated the VIP apartments.
They have large balconies with nice ocean view, large rooms and
luxury equipment with leather coaches, cherry wardrobes and LCD
TV-sets. Also the bathrooms are equipped with Jacuzzi. When we continue
our tour we should see the large suites. They have one large room
with balcony, really good furniture and all necessary equipment,
but are really smaller than the VIP apartments.
The lower class rooms are large rooms without balconies. They also
offer ocean view through the windows and all necessary equipment.
Other classes of rooms are with pretty good furniture and lower
sizes. But on board of Carnival Paradise there is nothing which
you can do in your room, because the whole life is outside. There
is open-air cinema, also another one inside. The pools are open
24 hours for the people who like night swimming and people who like
daily sunbathing. The sport facilities and fitness halls are offering
possibilities for practice sports and bodybuilding even through
vacation. The spa center and beauty saloons will make every girl
to look like a princess. The restaurants are offering different
dishes for every taste and in all cases you will eat your fingers.
And the night life is really amazing with all lounges, bars and
disco-clubs. The whole atmosphere on board of Carnival Paradise
is amazing and you will spend really nice vacation if you just board
this vessel. date: 31st December, 2008
