Lido Deck

 

  A common theme throughout Imagination is that of Egypt with gold sphinxes atop columns speckled with lights continuously changing in color.
One of the most popular areas on Lido Deck is the amidships pool flanked by hot tubs and a variety of bars.
Carnival Cruise Line's signature pool slide does not let guests down aboard the fifth of the "Fantasy Class" ships.
Multiple tiers along Lido Deck provide a variety of options for poolside games and entertainment.  The ship's calypso band plays under a covered portion of this area.
  Imagination features an outdoor promenade walking deck albeit not being a true full-circuit.  Completing a circuit forward requires taking stairs that ascend of the ship's bridge.  An aft circuit requires passing through an outdoor dining area of the Horizon Bar & Grill.
The Horizon Bar & Grill is truly versatile in providing a number of dining options for nearly any time of the day.
With a total seating capacity of 722, the Horizon Bar & Grill is quite expansive and features multiple serving stations in order to alleviate long, congested queues.

The options begin outdoors where guests may go through a separate queue to get hamburgers and hot dogs.

Parallel serving lines traditionally offer the same fare but are opened at staggered times according to traffic flow.

Opposite serving areas aft in the Horizon Bar & Grill provide a full service bar along with a pizzeria.  The pizzeria is open twenty-four hours for guests wanting a tasty treat at any time of the day.

Outdoor seating affords guests the opportunity to escape the crowd indoors and enjoy the fresh, open, ocean air.

Parallel staircases allow guest to descend to Promenade Deck and Imagination's children's swimming pool.
