Carnival Elation Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Carnival has been always our favorite cruise line the staff and service is excellent, and we always share our opinions and recommendation with our friends! Carnival is the number 1 cruise lines!!!

It was ok for my teenagers first cruise, very disappointed in excursions after the amount we had to pay for them.

No issues, Health protocol was followed. Crew had great attitude.

Personal recommendations: * Adult hot tubs close too early and inadequate capacity. Maybe a policy no sitting on the top of the tubs or something to move the partiers from not sharing. * Need more cocktail runners * Did not like the internet or alcohol policy that is priced per day but required all days to be purchased. Seems like deception. Just list a lump sum for trip if that's the intention. * Purchased a Piece of Jewelry ($1250) that I was told was a great deal and priced way under market price on the ship just to go home and find same or better pieces for a fraction of the price. This was an ill feeling and even thought It was a store vendor, Carnival should be accountable for making sure pricing is fair. Not the lowest, but fair. I feel taken advantage of on that respect.

Cruisers need to know when going on the privated island that drinks are not free...Also for 4 days I paid. $1200,00.. That rate is of an 7 days cruise. I feel very disappointed and cheated.

Limited recognition for platinum status except on debarking Lots of rust on room balcony and dirty Very little staff interaction Dining room service lacking, had to call manager more than once

We had no issues everything was amazing, definitely will make this a family tradition 💞. It was my kids first time ever on a Cruise and they really enjoyed it!

First time on Elation and the small ship of Carnival. Was nice since not too crowded. Glad it had an Effy jewelry store. Good spot to have the art auctions. Design is very old but did enjoy the layout of the lido deck buffet area. Liked there was a lot of room for Guy’s Burgers and the Blue Iguana

Worst boarding experience ever! We requesting a refund…

Liked the ship and crew. Thought food in dining room and buffet left much to be desired. Guys good as ever

Super rocking ship. Buffet is kinda eh, but mdr was fabulous

Covid 150 ridiculous when I was stuck inside a boat and had a covid test prior to getting inside the ship. The water is yellow. Food was bland and the entertainment was boring.

Great family cruise. The service was top notch. Older ship but great renovations. Lots of storage space and USB ports.

It’s a nice cruise smaller then others but good for a family get away

Overall the cruise was good, only the vessel Elation was bad. Inside was good and well distributed but out side was a bucket of rust to put it mild.

Great time all around! The best parts were the moments unplanned!

Very small ship. Pool very small. Makes me want to not cruise again. By the time u get back from an excursion, u do not have time to do anythin . And the fees are ridiculous

I'm sorry but this Carnival cruise ship needs to put out to pasture. My husband and I didn't like the excuse that the entire trip on the ship there was a lot of back and forth. My husband and I were on the Royal Caribbean during the hurricane and it didn't compared to this ship. We experienced the sea sickness since the beginning of the cruise and gradually gotten worse all the way to the end. Never again Carnival Elation.

Great food and entertainment. Ports of call were great too!

Terrible and overpriced. I will not book online or even explore cruising for some time. I have filled out 4 surveys and no one has bothered to address the issue with me. I was not the only dissatisfied customer
