Review summary
My best friends and I were searching for a cruise that would be convient and fun for just the three of us. We picked the perfect ship and ports! I have been on cruises two other times and honestly this cruise beat out the other ships I’ve been on. The others were bigger ships too! I felt that we were able to tackle all the activities we wanted within the 5days we were on the Elation. The staff remembered our names everyday and were so accommodating ! Benny and her crew from the Your Time Dining was spectacular ! Our cabin steward Yuhda was such a breath of fresh air with his welcoming smile and his speedy cleanup. Angel the pizza man was sweet and so nice to the guests even when they didn’t deserve it! A few guests were downright rude and demanding and he remained calm and kind. Hannah that handed out towels to the guests on the serenity deck had one of the best smiles and conversations! Overall I am thrilled that I attended this xruise! The band was amazing and I had so much fun playing trivia and watching the musical shows. I even learned how to salsa! I got a massage, my first one ever and she made me feel so comfortable! The food was amazing!!!! Karaoke was a blast and the crowd was having a ball! I even won a trophy for winning Charades! The ports were amazing. My friends and I decided to walk all of Nassau that we could. We walked to the Queens Staircase, the fort, the shopping area, the Parliament, to restaurants, Senor Frogs, and the straw market, as well as alongside the beach. When we went to Half Moon Cay we relaxed! We rented out floating beds and just floated around and enjoyed the sun. I even bought a snorkel head gear and was able to see beautiful fish and sea life! I loved every minute of this cruise and am definitely going to schedule another one on the Elation soon!Embarkation
