This was my first cruise... by jawatwood

Sail date: /
Ship: Carnival Elation

This was my first cruise and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. The ship was small enough that I was able to learn it quickly and get around as I needed. Already have another booked.

Great Vacation! by Gonecoastalguy

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (young children)
Ship: Carnival Elation / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

I have to ask myself why we didn't do a cruise vacation sooner. Everything was outstanding, I cannot think of one area of this cruise that was lacking. Our cabin was clean and well appointed, the shows were great, and the ports of call were wonderful as well. As far as the crew of the ship, they were all wonderful, always addressed by name, and greeted with a smile. Everyone was always eager to help! Additionally we had our young son, and he could not wait to go to camp each day. Needless to say, Camp Ocean was great and the staff was second to none. The food was excellent, always fresh, and the dining staff was wonderful. I am sure I left something out, but all and all this was just an amazing trip. I'll definitely be doing another cruise on Carnival in the near future.

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

An awesome Carnival cruise to the Bahamas! The carnival staff was so helpful and kind. The food was delicious. The Epic rock show was awesome. The 80s' is my favorite music "I'm an 80s' girl". So much fun and fun for all! Again, I had the time of my life on Carnival. Thanks, Sherry W Jewell

Carnival elation. The beds were... by qbngirl82

Sail date: /
Ship: Carnival Elation

Carnival elation. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were actually a nice size and so was the bathrooms. The only thing I didn’t like was the fact that they only had one restaurant open at night compared to the other cruises that I’ve been on. And the only food that was available was pizza. Their process for getting off of the boat is ridiculous, they need to get that a little bit more organized. Also there should be baggage tags for each person in the room when departing the ship and then if they need more than they can go to guest services and get some more instead of having to go to guest services just to get a baggage tag and waiting in that ridiculous line.

Whew by dwjohns56

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

Cruise was ok. Ship constantly rocked port to starboard yet seas were pretty calm. Up charges for everything... even in the dining room. Be prepared to be "upsold" at every turn. Nassau was a disaster, as soon as you walk off the boat people were on you like vultures trying to sell you anything imaginable. Half moon cay was a nice stop but even it was a constant upsell, even had more "gift" shops.

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

Food was awful in buffet room and just average in MDR. Met many people on ship who were very upset also. Lived on Guys burgers. Encountered several rude employees when we needed to solve an issue.

Amazing First Time Cruise by Thorntons1014

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Carnival Elation / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

This cruise was amazing as this was my husband and I first time cruising. We were celebrating my birthday and our one year anniversary. The service and staff were great. They remembered your name throughout the cruise, they were very friendly and never frustrated with the cruisers. As my first time, I was a little nervous because of being out on the water, however they keep us entertained. We were having so much fun that there were times that we forgot that we were even on the ship. It was just an amazing experience.

Excellent cruise! by TotalImmortal

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

This was our first cruise and we will be going again. The service on our ship was excellent and ship was perfect for a first cruise, not too big, but enough room to relax and enjoy ourselves. The 5 days we were on the ship were great and our ports of call were great. Half Moon Cay is the most beutiful place I think we have ever visited, the water is as clear as being in a swimming pool! Nassau isn't a bad port, as some reviewers make it seem. You do get a lot of locals asking you if you want to get your hair braided or need a taxi, but they are not pushy or overly agressive. Junkanoo beach is beutiful but a little rocky without water shoes. We didn't visit any other locations in Nassau other than the walking path to get to Junkanoo beach. Everything on the ship was wonderful! We never had an issue with anything while on the Elation and our crew was fun and so polite. I would definately recommend taking this cruise.

I was very disappointed with this ship. The food was absolutely just bad. Cold not much to choose from. I can't believe a cruise line would serve such a mess
