Review summary

We had a great time. We were able to relax when we wanted to, have drinks when we wanted, and party when we wanted. There was no one being rude or disrespectful. And what we loved, which I have never seen on Carnival before (only 3 trips) was security staff walking around making sure everything was okay.

We loved the Elation. I think the service and crew is much better on the smaller ships. Not so overworked.
