Review summary

There was 16 of us celebrating my Mother in Law's 96th birthday.  The staff was amazing, they treated her like a queen.  Not a day went by that at least a dozen Carnival employees didn't recognize and acknowledge her with Birthday wishes.  We booked the cruise on the Elation, out of Jacksonville, due to the convenience of the local port.  The ship is much smaller than most we have cruised on and is in the process of doing room upgrades (much needed), some of our gang's room had already been upgraded and some not, we had a suite and it had not been upgraded :(.  Food and service was the best we had experienced.  Will definitely choose Carnival again!
