Review summary

Overall it was a great trip! We already booked the Elation again for next year in June.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Embarkation was fast but the $90 for parking is garbage.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Dinner was great every night Definitely could have done without the waiter acting like he was a stripper near my kids during one of the songs though

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Piano bar performer was awesome. We were in a Facebook group for the trip and we all were talking about how terrible the onboard singers were. Literally cringe worthy and not good at all.

Children's Programs

5 out of 5

My kids loved camp carnival and club ocean. On the last night we pulled them out for dinner and they cried until we took them back with their friends they had made. Definitely made the trip more fun to know the kids loved the activities.
