Celebration Key: A Look at the Private Club and Extra Amenities

Carnival has been slowly releasing information about its new private destination, Celebration Key, over the past eight months. This new destination will open in July 2025 and provide a curated Carnival experience for the ships that dock here. The island is divided into 5 “portals,” or areas, and today, we learned more about their new exclusive area and extra amenities available to purchase throughout the rest of the island.

Exclusive Pearl Cove Beach Club Portal

The Pearl Cove Beach Club is Celebration Key’s premiere and exclusive offering. This area is for adults only (18 and up) and is only available to guests who purchase access. Here, guests will find elevated amenities like premium loungers and daybeds. The area features an 11,000-square-foot infinity pool complete with loungers and a swim-up bar. For those who prefer a sand beach, the Pearl Cove Beach Club has a private beach with sun loungers.

Pearl Cove Beach Club will also have a full-service restaurant with an “elevated menu” and an indoor/outdoor bar and lounge. Food and drink options will also be available near the beach.

Pearl Cove Beach Club Options

Guests who want to go to the Pearl Cove Beach Club have three options. All Pearl Cove Beach Club passes provide access to the private beach, infinity pool, extra-fee restaurant, lounge, and bar. The higher packages include drinks and food options. The “open bar” includes rum punch, draft domestic beer (regular + light beer), house red and white wine, all well drinks, frozen strawberry daquiris and pina coladas. As a reminder, your Carnival CHEERS package will not work on Celebration Key.

Not Everything at Celebration Key Has a Charge

It is important to remember that the items mentioned in this press release are only the “premium” offerings. Celebration Key still has plenty of items available at no cost. It’ll have the largest freshwater lagoon in the Caribbean, plenty of loungers, sports areas, beach access, and more. There will also be an adult-only section of the Calypso Lagoon.

While Carnival hasn’t released what food venues will be included, they have indicated in the past some included food options will be available. Carnival Brand Ambassador John Heald wrote on Facebook, “Don’t forget there are still lots of other areas that will be complementary that we haven’t told you about just yet.”
