Review summary

The cruise ship was small, and cramped, but a decent value cruise. For a shorter cruise on a tight budget, it was nice.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

The embarkation was extremely fast. Streamlined and efficient. We were on the ship much more quickly than ever before.

Cabin / Stateroom

The balcony room we were in was small. Smaller than previous Carnival cruises, but still nice.

Ship tip

Go for the extra and get the suite if you are considering a balcony.

Went on the Elation twice last year and never felt cramped or crowded.

We didn't mind the size and I didn't feel the rooms were any smaller.
