Carnival Magic deck plans

Carnival Magic (built in 2011, last refurbished in May 2021, Fun Ship 2.0 refurbishment in 2016, scheduled for refurbishment in April-May 2026) is the second of the three Dream-class Carnival cruise ships, along with Breeze and Dream. The same class also includes Costa Diadema.

The Carnival Magic cruise ship deck plan includes a total of 1,845 staterooms accommodating 3,690 passengers (maximum capacity is 4,724), served by 1,367 crew members. The vessel has 14 passenger decks (9 with cabins), 22 lounges and bars, 3 swimming pools (one with a retractable roof), 8 outdoor Jacuzzis (2 cantilevered), and 18 elevators. Cabin decks include 54 Suites, 851 Balcony, 221 Oceanview, and 719 Inside cabins, as well as self-service laundromats (passenger-use launderettes).

Laundry facilities are available at an extra charge – $3.25 per washer or dryer load, and $1.50 per box of detergent/water softener (dispensed from a vending machine in the laundry room). Launderettes (open from 6:30 a.m. to 12 midnight) are located on all cabin decks. Each laundry room has 2–3 washers, 2–3 dryers, and 1 ironing station. All machines are coin-operated (Sail & Sign cards cannot be used). While the ship is in port, washers are unavailable (only dryers and irons can be used). Valet laundry service is available through the cabin steward. Prices per item: wash-and-press ($2–$7.50) and dry-cleaning ($3–$10.50).

Carnival Magic Drydock 2021

From April 24 to May 24, 2021, Carnival Magic underwent drydock at Chantier Naval de Marseille (CNdM Shipyard in Marseille, France), primarily for general maintenance. Notably, she became the first Carnival ship to receive the new red-white-blue hull livery (previously introduced on Mardi Gras), replacing the former all-white design with a red stripe.

During the 2021 drydock, the ship’s casino was expanded to include more slot machines and gaming options. The WaterWorks aquapark and Lido Deck swimming pools were also refreshed.

The following deck plan changes were implemented during the 2016 drydock refurbishment (February 21 to March 5):

(Lido Deck 10) – Two complimentary poolside dining venues were added: Guy’s Burger Joint (fast-food bar) and BlueIguana Cantina (Mexican eatery). Additional new venues on Lido Deck include BlueIguana Tequila Bar (serving frozen drinks and beers) and Pizzeria del Capitano (complimentary pizzeria).
