Finally got to Cruise-Elation by rmpolino

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Elation

Had four cancellations in the last two years. It was wonderful getting back on the water. We enjoyed ourselves immensely. I would add photos but it’s only allowing for one to be attached. I can’t get back to my album.

Great to get away, but the ship was disappointing by MrsBlackross

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Elation / Destination: Caribbean - Eastern

We were quite disappointed on this trip for the first time ever on a cruise. The ship was older, and it showed in the lack of activities and lack of food choices. The cruise director really tried, but I could tell even he was frustrated at what he had to work with. If we ever go Carnival again, it will have to be a newer ship. We have sailed on many of their older ones, including Sensation, Fantasy (now gone), and Sunrise, and all had great food, enthusiastic crew, and fun vibes. The other passengers were great, but we have never felt so disappointed in a ship like we did with this one.

Great cruise by jerseyjim

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Elation

Overall the cruise was great ship was clean food was good shows are OK captain kept everyone safe that’s why we didn’t tender because of the bad weather overall I give this cruise a five star. only thing it wasn’t good was disembarking day they call you by your muster station but the problem is they also call people with tag numbers and you’re going through a maze to get off the ship yeah I can say that was the worst Disembarkation of all of my crusies.

GOOD CRUISE WITH SOME SUGGESTIONS by Tom500

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Carnival Elation / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

FOOD in DR was not good. Very small portions. I also like showing up at 6 pm and being assigned to new table. Elation did not have this

Fun Return to Cruising by bsmith3262

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Elation

We were so excited to be able to board a cruise ship after 18 months of not being able to! Aside from a few minor inconveniences, we never felt unsafe or at risk. If anything, the cleaning routine NEVER stops! Crew members are constantly wiping down public areas with cleaning solutions and sanitizers.

Great trip! by jcengland92

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Elation

Great cruise for the money spent, Amber Cove was a very nice port! Bimini was very lack luster.. Port was run down and the beach we went to was dirty and had trash everywhere. Besides that, the food, drinks and service were excellent! Great Job carnival! We will definitely be cruising again 😁

Horrible cruise ship and protocols by brandi80z

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Elation / Destination: Caribbean - Eastern

the first night in main dining they gave me a Caesar salad with anchovie sauce no one was social distancing anywhere mask was on the elevator floor for a long time when getting off the ship there was no social distancing I had to wait a half hr for my appetizer in the dining room! This topped it off as I will not be cruising as I came home sick!!!And my fiance being a disabled vet could hardly walk wanted to charge him a 185.00 for a wheelchair for 5 nights!!!

Return to the Fantasy class ships after sailing on the Mardi Gras by Kengines

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Elation

Nice little ship but the ships satellite was our 90% of the time so we did not have any tv programs in our room other than what Carnival pipe in your room. I missed Monday nite football and the World Series because the bats couldn’t get satellite signal. I would suggest buying the value WiFi package if you want to communicate with the world and be able to call via WiFi.
