Review summary

I was not a happy guest. Very old boat water on floor saw people falling due to water on leado deck .Rubber coming up on the decks  bathroom all smelled like pee and food was raw .Not a lot of actives .Every bar had a different price on same drinks. Wasn't  greeted by workers. Heard lot of people talking about the ship employees saying they hated there job and made the guest suffer for it.,I don't know if I will travel with Carnival .Paid to much not to enjoy '

I went on first cruise on the Elation on April. I had a great time and the staff was very nice. They even call you by your first name to make you feel they took the time for you. The food was great. There was maybe a few minutes wait in some of the lines but nothing to gripe about. You expect water to be around the pool deck but I agree the pool was over taken by adults and no room for kids. I would definitely take another with them.

That's right ! Just ignore me on private chat, Deb, concentrate your efforts here, it's going to go south, very fast, if the original poster replies ! look out ! lol Been a controversial day for both of us, hasn't it !! :-)

Yes, 🤔 seems I do remember seeing a "wet floor" sign as I was going down. 🙄

npurl    8 years ago

And anytime that there is water on the floor, there is always a wet floor sign!!! 100% of the people on a cruise ship will never be pleased, but hey you get out of it what you put in!!! And the only time the word "hate" ever come into my vocabulary, is when I have to get off......because I HATE to get off!!!

The Elation is a great ship!!! And I've been on 2 Carnival cruises and have never heard anyone talk about how much they hate their job, heck, they don't even look like they hate their jobs, even the ones cleaning the toilets in the bathrooms all have smiles on their faces!!! So to say that anyone on those ships hate their jobs is absolutely absurd!!

Don't worry, kathy58. When the posters never returns to defend themselves, usually just a troll spreading lies. Enjoy your cruise!

kathyt58    8 years ago

my first cruise will be on the elation in September and I so hope that lilmamaw is just one of those no matter what you do you can't please them kind of people who has a better time trying to spoil things for others and besides I have heard more good than bad about the elation and to keep saying she's old well news flash this gray mare ain't what she used to be either but I can still hang with the best of them so I think elation can to

lynnj55758785    8 years ago

Yeah... not buying it. Y'all can send her back to NOLA, we love her and could handle three ships. 😉

Wait, there's water on the deck by the pool? How dangerous! ; )

debbmike    8 years ago

I'm with you on that, cajun. Sounds like troll talk.

cajun204    8 years ago

Was kinda buying your review until you said the workers actually said they hated their jobs. Also every bar does not have different prices on the same drinks.

debbmike    8 years ago

I slipped and fell on the "Lido" deck on the Breeze. It's a deck by the pool so naturally water is going to be there. Never once did I blame the ship for me falling. They keep the water cleaned up the best they can. Things happen.
