Unfortunately its true. I emailed Carnival and was told that they are exploring have another adult only area on the ship, but nothing definite yet. I'm very disappointed as this was the one place out on deck that wasn't over run with children. Don't get me wrong, I love kids (and have four of my own) but when I'm on vacation with DH (and no kids) I like to have a spot where I can get away from them for a little while.
