In 2021, Carnival launched a new class of ships called the Excel-class with the Mardi Gras. We hopped onto that ship for a sailing in her inaugural season and were blown away by the size and design of this at the time new ship. One week on board was just not enough time, but we still managed to see and do a lot!

Fast forward and we’ve discovered our love for this new class and have since sailed on Mardi Gras multiple times, Carnival Celebration multiple times, and even tried our hand at an inaugural sailing on the Carnival Jubilee! In all of our tours and walks. We’ve only been able to get a quick tease of the exclusive Loft 19 area. This space is dedicated for use by suite guests, and those interested in paying a little extra money for an upgraded experience.

You have the opportunity to experience this area for one day, or you can rent it for the entire cruise! Pricing does vary between sea days and port days, so it’s something you’ll want to consider when booking a spot in Loft 19.

The Tour

In this article about Carnival’s Loft 19, we wanted to share with you the complete tour of this space and the menu that’s currently available for those enjoying this upgraded experience. During a sailing on the Carnival Celebration, we recorded this walking tour and shared important information about the space.

The Menu

People have been asking us for a sneak peak at the Menu for Carnival’s Loft 19. We finally snagged a digital copy of it and are excited to share it with you! Inside, it lists all of the drinks that are available, and also the food! The great thing about Loft 19, is that there is a dedicated cabana attendant that will take care of you and your party during your visit. You can schedule delivery times for the food and drinks so you can enjoy the hot tubs or cantilevered pool and come back to a fully stocked cabana. Check out the Loft 19 Menu!

Carnival’s Loft 19 – is it worth it?

Have you stayed in Carnival’s Loft 19 on the Mardi Gras, Carnival Celebration, or Carnival Jubilee? What did you think of the experience? If you haven’t stayed there, what food or drink items from the menu look the most excited to you? Let us know in the comments below! We’d love to get your thoughts on this exclusive space that Carnival introduced several years ago. It commonly sells out, so does that mean they need an expanded offering on the next two Excel-class ships?
