The following options are available to add to your booking:

Registration Info:
Since the cruise lines are very specific about the information they need to book cabins, I am only taking cabin reservations over the phone. This will ensure proper spelling of names, accuracy of Credit Card information, and (hopefully) no e-mail tag (or phone tag) to answer questions. If you are interested in going with the Salsa En St. Pete Group, please make your reservation as soon as possible as we need to give Carnival a head count and book the cabins we have reserved so Carnival doesn't release them! Deposit and Final Payment can be made by Check or Credit Card*.

Before you call to book your cabin, please do the following:
- Select the type of cabin you want (Balcony (8A), OceanView (6A), or Inside (4A))
- Decide if you want to purchase the Cruise Vacation Protection Plan from Carnival Cruises
- Pick your dinner seating preference - "Early" or "Late"
- Full information on your cabinmate (roommate) as well!

What to expect on this Salsa En St. Pete Cruise ...

Get ready for a fun vacation and dance experience!

Your exciting adventure begins in Miami, Florida as we board the Carnival Liberty and set sail for the Caribbean visiting Puerto Rico, St. Thomas, and St. Maarten. You will enjoy gourmet meals, outstanding service, & dancing; plus have many onboard options and shore excursions to consider. The emphasis is on relaxation, fun, dancing, and being with friends!

Our cruise format is very "relaxed" where the days are yours to go ashore and explore the ports of call or simply remain onboard and enjoy the ship. There will be a variety of Salsa & Hustle dance classes at both beginning and intermediate skill levels. Classes are typically scheduled on the days at sea. We will have special gatherings, parties, and dances for “our group only” in addition to the general pre-dinner and after-dinner dancing available in the lounges. Our actual group schedule is finalized by the ship closer to sailing and that schedule is subject to change.

Evening dining time choices are: 1st seating (5:45 or 6:15 p.m.) or 2nd seating (8:00 or 8:30 p.m.). Dining options are on a first come, first served booking so register early to get your preference. Other dining options available are random Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner & Late-Night buffets as well as 24-hour room service.

There are so many activity and entertainment choices available onboard the Carnival Liberty. You can dance to one of the live bands, see a variety of shows, relax in a lounge, stroll on the deck, see a movie, read a book or enjoy the many options the ship has to offer. This cruise is not just for dancers; there is something for everyone!
