Review summary
I booked two rooms, one was dirty with directory missing from the in room phone. Getting on the ship was fast and easy. After the first night they told us there’s a problem with the ship and we’re not gonna be able to make it to our destination. We ended up going to Bahamas instead. We spent a whole day in terrible Bahamas. We ended up having 3 days at sea instead of two. They ran out of sea sick patches after the first day. The only compensation we got was $100 added to our sign and sail card and 50% off of a NEXT cruise. They know the $100 has to be spent on the boat so in reality we didn’t get any real compensation for something that wasn’t our fault. BE AWARE AND DO NOT BOOK WITH THE CARNIVAL ELATION SHIP.Embarkation
