WE usually sail on Carnival and most have a "serenity deck" which is very nice, noone under 18 allowed. comfy clamshell loungers, hammocks, chaise lounge chairs, hot tubs and bar. Nice quiet adult area.
Inside we have found the Promenade deck to be quiet for reading or playing cards, also usually some quiet shady areas on the Lido deck outside.
The newer ships are so large you may not find the quiet retreat you are looking for until near the end of your cruise. A balcony room solves that problem. We have had our room steward locate chaise lounges for our balcony and remove the "lawn chairs". For a nice tip, they will graciously accommodate any reasonable request.
