Sarah Bretz, ContributorWith the opening of Carnival Cruise Line’s new destination Celebration Key one year away, the line has announced details on an exclusive retreat that guests will be able to enjoy there. Carnival has also opened reservations for shore excursions, supervillas, cabanas, and daybeds at Celebration Key.
Pearl Cove Beach Club
Nestled in the westernmost point of the destination, the adults-only Pearl Cove Beach Club will feature a lush, secluded entry opening to views of an 11,000-square-foot infinity pool with a large sun shelf, water loungers, and a swim-up bar. Pink striped sun umbrellas with sun loungers and daybeds will line the pool area while a DJ plays tropical lounge music.
Just past the infinity pool will be a dedicated, private beach with sun loungers, accompanied by beachside food and drink service. When looking for lunch or a snack, Pearl Cove Beach Club guests will find a well-appointed full-service restaurant with an elevated menu, bar, and lounge with both indoor and outdoor seating.
Reservations for the 18+ Pearl Cove Beach Club are now available through January 2, 2026 and include three options:
- Club access plus a welcome drink
- Club access plus open bar (with a maximum of 10 drinks)
- Club access, open bar (max 10 drinks), and food from the Pearl Cove restaurant
Celebration Key Villas, Cabanas, and Daybeds
For all visitors to Celebration Key, Carnival is also opening reservations for eight types of villas, cabanas, and daybeds, located in 14 zones across the destination. Reservations through January 2, 2026 are now open.
Daybeds and Water Daybeds
Located at Calypso Lagoon and Starfish Lagoon, daybeds provide plush lounging for two with pillows, a canopy for shade, and privacy curtains. Water daybeds include “cool” lounging for two on the sun shelf at Calypso Lagoon.
Cabanas
Available at several locations surrounding Celebration Key’s freshwater lagoons — some close to the splash pad for kids — cabanas provide comfortable seating for four guests. They include a sofa, armchairs, two sun loungers, a private locking cabinet, privacy curtains, and a cooler with chilled water bottles. Fresh fruit and snacks are available upon arrival.
Over-the-Lagoon Cabanas
These cabanas are located on peninsulas that are over the Calypso and Starfish Lagoons. They feature the same functionality and features of the regular cabanas and add a private sun shelf and ceiling fan.
Large Cabanas
Located around Calypso and Starfish Lagoons, the large cabanas accommodate groups of six. Amenities include four sun loungers with umbrellas, a mini fridge stocked with water and soda, a sofa, a dining table with four seats, a locking cabinet, privacy curtains, a ceiling fan, fresh fruit and snacks upon arrival, and lunch delivery.
AquaBanas
Comfortable and sturdy floating cabanas that are fun for all ages in the family-friendly Starfish Lagoon, AquaBanas offer seating for eight people to relax around a table, with their feet in the water, under a shady canopy. Steps provide easy access to the freshwater lagoon.
Over-the-Lagoon Supervillas
The destination’s largest cabana offering, Supervillas accommodate 10 guests with plenty of comfortable sofa and armchair seating under shade. Amenities include locking cabinets, a dining table with eight chairs, a mini fridge stocked with water and soda, ceiling fans, hammocks, swing chairs, sun loungers, fresh fruit and snacks upon arrival, and lunch delivery.
Supervillas also feature a dedicated sun shelf with water loungers and a water slide into the lagoon. There are four Supervillas: two over the Calypso Lagoon (adult-friendly and adults-only areas near the DJ booth and swim-up bar) and two located over the Starfish Lagoon for families.
Beach Supervillas
Two Beach Supervillas are located at the family-friendly beach and two are at the adults-only beach. Ten guests can enjoy a memorable beach day with a sofa, armchairs, hammocks, and sun loungers.
