Video Interview - Hotel Director for the Carnival Imagination on Evolutions of Fun

On a bright and sunny November day the Carnival Imagination’s Hotel Director, Miles Willis, was kind enough to take some time out and give us a tour of the new Evolutions of Fun enhancements on board. After a month long dry dock the Carnival Imagination now features Carnival WaterWorks (with three kinds of water slides); new outdoor Serenity, an adult only retreat; completely refurbished staterooms; three new dining options (deli, Mongolian grill, and chicken rotisserie) and more. But don’t take our word for it; watch Miles- sunglasses and all- discuss the enhancements directly from the ship’s lido deck.

 

And, for an interview you can read check out John Heald’s interview with Miles here.

I will have to say this is my 7ht cruise with Carnival and I love them all. With the Imagination I really felt the ship really needed a complete face lift on all levels when I compared the Imagination to all the other beautiful cruise liners Carnival I have been on. So I am so excited to sail the Imagination again. Thank you for the video clip and ill see you all on November 24th. My goal is to have sailed 50 cruises like my father and mother did.

Thanks for all the fun years I have already had and cant wait for many more.

CHEERS TOO ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This sounds very exciting.  In a few weeks we are cruising on the Glory.  Hope we have the opportunity in the future of experiencing the Carnival Imagination.

This looks great! We have been on the imagination before the overhaul and had a great time and now we look forward to the new and improved imagination! We just got back from cruising on the Victory to San Juan Puerto Rico, St. Thomas & St. Maarten which was a fantastic trip! Thanks for the updates! Bill & Shelley Kuipers

Did I miss something in this web site?  Does it show the Port that it leaves from and its itinerary?  I do not remember seeing it.  However, the pictures provided were wonderful.  Thanks

I went on the Imagination 2-3 times and can't wait to go again.  We have had John as a Cruise Director 3 times on the Triumph and Destiny and he IS THE BEST.

I'm so jealous! I sailed the imagination last Spring Break and although it was a blast, this looks incredible! I'll definitely have to do it again!

Congrats on the "New Carnival Imagination". Looks like you should upgrade from a 3 to 5 day cruise to a 7 day adventure with such new innovations.

Wishing the New Carnival Imagination and its guests all the best.

I have cruised on the imagination before and I am looking forward to it again. Do you still have the casino on the ship? I did not see it. My grandson really did enjoy the the ship although he was only 4 years old he is ten now and can't wait to go again expecially now he tall enough to go on the water slide.

We took our very first cruise in February of this Year. That was a four day cruise on the Celebration. We enjoyed the cruise so much we booked a second cruise in November for a seven day jaunt on the Legend. We came home and went directly to our travel agent and booked a four day cruise in December. luckily, our December cruise will be on the Carnival Imagination and we are really looking forward to the experience of going on a basically, new ship. We have been upgrading our cabin since the first cruise and have booked a suite on the Carnival Imagination so, we are really excited. We started with an ocean view cabin on the first cruise, then a balcony cabin on the second cruise and the suite on the Carnival Imagination. To be honest, I can not imagine that any ship could be any better than the two Carnival ships we have been on already! We are looking forward to being proven wrong.

my family and I have cruised on the Imagination in 2006. We had a blast. It was really beautiful. The new pictures of the ships renovations and upgrades are great. I hope to see it again someday. My oldest son loved the water slide . I want to take my youngest son too . I hope its as great as it looks now in  a few years.

This looks like a great new fun ship.  I am looking forward to checking it out in the future. I have traveled on the Legend twice, the Fasination once,and most recently the Spirit on a 13 day cruise in the Hawaiian Islands.  I say cruiseing is the best way to travel.

My ex-boyfriend and I had our first cruise on the imagination April 2006. We had a great time with his family. I booked a suite for our first cruise and thought the room was great but now it looks even better than before. Thank you for the experience and hope to be sailing again with carnival in the near future with someone new. Thanks again for keeping us updated on the new things with carnival.

I have had the "priviledge" of working under this "great leader", Miles Willis. He is the most arrogant, full of him self, not knowing anything hotel director I have ever seen, and trust me, I've sen allot. He is a shame for the Carnival fleet and he should be sent home to his beautiful England, where he couldn't probabily get a job as a janitor, not a hotel manager... I wonder if You'll post this...
