Margaritaville At Sea Islander launched and we've put together a full tour of all the public spaces on board. This quick tour brings you from the top of the ship on Deck 12 all the way down to Deck 1 highlighting all the things that are waiting for you on board Margaritaville At Sea Islander!
We share with you the spaces we love the most and point out how the Margaritaville At Sea pays homage to the past by keeping in certain elements and Easter-eggs for cruise lovers. This Spirit-class ship originally sailed for Costa Cruises as the Costa Atlantica before being transformed during an extensive dry dock that brought in new venues and experiences aboard.
If you've sailed any of the Carnival Spirit-class ships, you'll feel right at home here! To help you orient yourself as we go through the tour, we provide deck plan images throughout the video - those are all courtesy of Margaritaville At Sea.
The inaugural sailing was a true blessing for Rocky and me. We met so many people on board and got to experience things we've never done before in all of our cruises. It was truly a cruise we will never forget. We hope that this tour gives you just a little bit of an idea for what's in store on Margaritaville At Sea Islander!
Stay tuned for our FULL REVIEW which we'll publish once our second sailing is complete. We've been busy taking notes and will share everything we loved, didn't love, and hated.

Ciao!

Thank you for the kinds words! We sometimes find it hard on tours to figure out where someone is on the ship, so we started overlaying the deck plans. It’s a lot more time consuming, but it’s rewarding to hear that it helps!! :) -m

Thanks, Rocky & Mark, for a REALLY informative video on the Islander, which we are booked on next week. BTW - Being a videographer myself I REALLY appreciate that you guys used time lapse along with insert views of the deck plans to tell the story efficiently while still being your entertaining selves. Thanks!

You did a great job at speeding through the floors in a way that was understandable and insightful! I’m not a casino girl but I absolutely hate having to walk by or through the smoke, so I will enjoy it being non smoking. We sail in late September- gonna let them work out the first few kinks 😂😂😂

The ship is familiar from the Carnival ships (who own Costa for those who don’t know), so them keeping a lot of the set up from Costa is awesome. Definitely an upgrade from what I have seen from the MAS Paradise. I refused to sail on it, but this one has changed my mind about MAS. They spent some money on this one.

It really is different look and feel from Paradise. We’re having a great time and are excited to watch Margaritaville at Sea continue expand with this addition. They’ve got the right idea and will continue to get better!

on the waterslide rules, it says that it is for kids 12+ .... did you see that this was enforced? OR did you see kids that looked younger on it?

@thiscruiselife 6 күн бұрын
We didn’t see them checking any IDs while we were back there. ;) With that said, after an injury on the next to last day of our sailing, the water slide was shut down. I would imagine they are going to be more rigorous going forward on who can/can’t ride. Of course, we always recommend following all rules to ensure a safe and fun vacation experience! :) -mark

They did an amazing job. It’s clear they had a lot more creative control bringing in a new ship (versus inheriting what Bahamas Paradise already had). The spaces are all very intentional, and it’s one of our favorite classes of ships (Spirit). Definitely think they’ve got a competitor with this one!! -m
