We begin a new tradition in 2012 with Atlantis' first-ever Halloween Cruise. Sail from Los Angeles on the West's largest ship to the extraordinary beaches of Puerto Vallarta and Cabo San Lucas. Add an awesome lineup of brand new entertainers, spectacular parties, and innovative ways to have fun to create the most exciting gay cruise of the year. All with the lowest fares in our history, starting at just $599!
Atlantis First Halloween Cruise. All-New for 2012.
When we say new, we really mean it. We're taking our friendliest and most popular Mexico cruise and moving to the largest ship in the West to entertain 3000 gay and lesbian guests in style. If you're looking for a great time in the sun, it's the perfect way to sail.
The Splendor features a stunning central pool area, with spectacular spaces for dancing, a massive 270 square foot video wall, two tiered balconies, and a retractable roof that closes on a moment's notice. She boasts an innovative modern look, with stunning venues for enjoying a perfect meal, taking in our diverse entertainment, keeping fit outdoors and in, pampering yourself in the spa, and playing any way you choose. You'll love her whimsical design showcasing Carnival's new modern look and services.
Natural Beauty Meets Adventure
Atlantis' original itinerary takes you to the Pacific's most alluring beach cities. Captivating, gay-friendly Puerto Vallarta will charm you with a wealth of natural beauty, including plenty of time to enjoy the city's incomparable gay nightlife and beach culture. Dive, fish, or snorkel in beautiful Cabo San Lucas, or discover an uninhabited beach. There's plenty of time to experience it all, plus three relaxing days at sea to enjoy all that Atlantis has to offer.
Endless Fun. Your Way.
Of course there's so much to do onboard that you might never leave the ship. From our daytime poolside activities to afternoon t-dances, you'll always be entertained. Become a child again on the water-slide, take in an afternoon movie in the cinema, have brunch with friends, or find a quiet chair in the Serenity retreat area. The Splendor boasts a spectacular 21,000 square foot, two-story spa called Cloud 9 with every imaginable treatment along with one of the largest and most complete fitness centers at sea.
Amazing Entertainment. Everywhere.
As we sail into the Pacific sunshine, an exciting mix of fresh and familiar Atlantis performers will entertain you in a variety of venues. It all starts with our signature comedians, variety entertainers, singers, and more in the two-story main theater. Then add some of our special guest stars (past years featured Deborah Cox, Patti Lupone, Idina Menzel, Roseanne, Jennifer Hudson, Chita Rivera, and Joan Rivers), to create a truly legendary week!
And that's just the beginning. Throughout the ship we'll showcase Atlantis piano bar entertainers, gay musical stars, up-an-coming cabaret acts, drag performers, and other original shows. Looking for some action? Try your luck in the casino, watch a film in the cinema, or relax with friends in our many inviting bars and lounges.
And Those Parties...
We've seen a lot of ships and produced hundreds of great parties, but we think that the pool deck on the Splendor is the most ideal space we've seen for an outdoor dance party. Wide open spaces give way to an inviting pool surrounded balconies with plenty of space to watch the party below. There's even a retractable glass roof that closes instantly in case of unexpected (and rare) unpleasant weather.
The most spectacular parties in our history will rise up from this remarkable space, featuring concert sound, amazing light, dazzling lasers, fascinating video, and the friendliest crowd you've ever seen at a party. The world's top gay DJs headline a variety of nights with our signature themes and wide-ranging musical styles. In addition to costume events, you'll find musical tributes to Classic Disco, 80s retro, great divas from the 90s, and a few more original ideas. Regardless of your taste in music, or temperament for a party, we'll find a way to entertain you.
Our theme parties are legendary, and everything turns up a notch in 2012 with Atlantis first-ever Halloween Ball. We're creating not just one, but a series of parties and events that will let your imagination run wild.
Get Onboard With Our Best Value.
A great vacation offers an incredible opportunity for sharing, and there's no better place to meet people from all over the world than on Atlantis' Mexican Riviera cruise. For 9 years it's been both our fastest-selling vacation and the most easygoing, friendliest crowd of our season. We don't know why it all happens, but certainly look forward to sailing every fall.
Astonishing fares starting at just $599 – our best value yet! If you've never experienced Atlantis, this is the perfect place to start. Just don't delay as our fall cruise sells out year after year.
We know you'll love the incredible variety of exciting venues and wonderful options onboard the new Carnival Splendor. In so many ways, she's the perfect ship for Atlantis' Mexican Riviera cruise.
So Many Places To Play!
It's hard to tell which onboard space best represents Carnival Splendor – they all seem to hint at the amazing time you're going to have. El Morocco Lounge hosts Atlantis comedy shows, our original cabaret performances, a little drag karaoke and many, many surprises...while wearing its 1930s namesake clearly on its nameplate. The words "Royal Flush Casino" incite visions of winning, while our onboard jazz club's moniker – The Cool – simply says it all without saying a word. And the Pinnacle Steakhouse can be found not only at the height of elegant dining, but at the apex of the ship.
If you like your fun to flow, there are options aplenty. If you list "splish" and "splash" among your favorite terms, there's the Splash WaterPark.
Looking for a quitter dip? Carnival Splendor has pools all over the place, including the midship pool with a retractable roof that makes any day a pool day. So whether you splish or splash, you'll find hydro-excitement galore.
If relaxation is more your thing, Serenity Retreat will suit you perfectly with quiet lounge chairs and a cool south-beach style vibe. Or if you're looking to take relaxation to the extreme, direct your attention to the Cloud 9 Spa, featuring more (and better) ways to kick back than just about anywhere else, on land or at sea. You haven't lived until you've relaxed in a Thalassotherapy pool, or chilled – so to speak – in a dry heat chamber.
Delicious, Fun, Special, and Never Formal.
From our two magnificent main restaurants to the casual Grand Buffet, you'll always find a variety of tempting delights to satisfy you. Meet friends in the Black or Gold Pearl restaurants where there's never a dress code and you can dine whenever you choose. Indulge in some sushi at our sushi bar, a glass of wine at the wine bar, or settle in for a coffee at the specialty coffee house. Or enjoy the masterful selection at the Grand Buffet, where you'll find Asian, Italian, Indian, and other specialties virtually 24 hours a day.
And for a romantic night out or celebration with friends, the Pinnacle Steakhouse offers prime cuts in an elegant setting that's literally the top of the ship!
As Active as You Desire.
Massive decks offer plenty of places to soak up the sun, while two inviting pools and a classic waterslide help you cool off in style. Join in a game of volleyball or basketball on the sports court. Or simply pull up a quiet chair in Serenity – our relaxing retreat.
Splendor boasts one of the largest fitness centers at sea, with a full compliment of the latest weight-training and cardio equipment. And when you're ready to cool down the two-story Cloud 9 spa features innovative treatments and amazing ways to pamper yourself.
Endless Entertainment Venues.
The Splendor was built for entertainment, starting with our massive three-story theater. You'll find fascinating lounges throughout the ship, including the dazzling El Morocco Lounge, Cool Lounge, and Grand Piano Bar. All are naturally filled with the best in Atlantis cabaret entertainers every night. Be a winner in the inviting Royal Flush Casino, or join us outdoors every night for our sensational outdoor dance parties. There's even a sensational indoor nightclub that we'll use for our after-hour and alternative parties.
Spacious and Modern Staterooms.
When you do finally return to your stateroom, you'll enjoy a quiet, elegant retreat, with rooms larger than the most in the industry. Most offer a private verandah and feature the most modern staterooms amenities including flat-screen televisions and spacious bathrooms. Should you need anything, our pampering staff is just a phone call away and Carnival's friendly staff will take care of your every need.
Los Angeles, California, USA The Carnival Splendor will be departing from the Port of Long Beach, a short drive from the second largest city in the US. From a small village founded by the Spaniards in 1781, Los Angeles has grown to be one of the world's centers of business, international trade, entertainment, culture, media and technology. As the home base of Hollywood, it is known as the Entertainment Capital of the World, serving as the center of the world's motion picture, television, and music industries.
Cabo San Lucas, Mexico Straddling the southernmost tip of Baja California, Cabo San Lucas is a sun-drenched paradise that offers exceptional scuba diving, snorkeling and world-class fishing. For those seeking a more mellow and relaxing time, Cabo offers some of the peninsula's best beaches where the desert meets the sea. Cabo San Lucas's other main attractions include an underwater nature preserve and the striking Land's End rock formations at one end of the bay.
Puerto Vallarta, Mexico Puerto Vallarta has become Mexico's favorite gay destination in recent years, attracting gay travelers from the U.S., Mexico, and around the world who are drawn to its mix of Old Mexico charm, casual atmosphere, beautiful beaches and fantastic year-round weather. Handicraft stores and art galleries line the streets of its quaint, cobblestone town center. At night, its many gay and gay-friendly restaurants, bars and clubs offer everything from the laid-back to the outrageous.
