The boat was very rocky, there where some mishaps and the food wasn’t the best. But the cruise is what you make it.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
The main dining rooms food was never good, the buffet had little options and was never good
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
The gym was small, but it was better than nothing. The spa is way to expensive. The pool was small but the kids loved it
Entertainment
3 out of 5
The shows, bingo and other entertainment was pretty good....except the piano bar.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
The staff was literally amazing! The room steward, I couldn’t have asked for anyone better.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
It was clean, but old. It broke down in the middle of the ocean due to “technical issues” so we ran late
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
It was a balcony room, but it was on the side were they kept the life boats. So the view the beat view, it wasn’t as nice as the other side of the boat. And at night I could hear the metal clanking. And our window wasn’t sealed all the way so it squeezed all the time.
Long. We were over 2 hours late getting off the ship. The ship broke down, the weather was bad the last night, and someone “committed a crime” so they held us there until they investigated it.
I won't sail on the Elation again, my September cruise was so rocky. Many cruisers have posted the Elation being rocky. Wondering why this ship gets so many comments about this.
We were also on this cruise. We had a great time. Yes, the boat was rocky, but like you said, it's all what you make it. My grandkids loved their first cruise!
