MIAMI, Feb. 23, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Carnival Sensation has undergone a multi-million-dollar renovation and emerged with a variety of popular food and beverage concepts, as well as a new nautical-themed children's play area.

Following the two-week-long dry dock, which took place in Freeport, The Bahamas, the 2,052-passenger Carnival Sensation today resumed its year-round schedule of four- and five-day cruises from Miami.

Carnival Sensation is the third Carnival ship to undergo a refurbishment this year with Carnival Dream and Carnival Ecstasy receiving new spaces, as well.

        "prescribe" concoctions from different elixirs and ingredients with

        Drop.

        simple indulgences with bins of bulk candy, fun fanciful gifts and
        novelties, custom apparel and more.
