Great cruise. We totally loved Atlantis in Nassau. We liked Half Moom Cay, but I wasn't impressed with it. The food was not good at all, and the staff didn't seem prepared for us. Half Moom Cay needs to be re-evalulated or vastly improved.
Carnival Elation Cruise Review to Caribbean - Bahamas

Review summary
Overall, it was a great cruise. Atlantis is nice but very expensive. If they want more people to select Atlantis for their excursion, they need to lower the price a bit. As for Half Moon Cay, the staff is not nearly as friendly as the staff on the cruise ship. The food at Half Moon Cay was horrible, and there were lots of flies in the dining area. Many of us didn't know that lunch was only for a set time. Carnival needs to make some significant improvements to their private island. The folks in the dining facility didn't seem to know what they were doing.Embarkation
