Never again by solvansmith

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

To be completely honest, it was the worst vacation that we have ever had. From seasickness, the bland food, our Stewart, too Long to receive our food, wrong food orders, the show being the same as the year before, to the horrible experience trying to get off the ship. Literally beginning to end. We had a few issues from another Carnival ship last year. But overall it was a good experience. We spend too much money, to be so miserable for five days. You’re getting a 2.7 rating. But that’s mostly from the excursion. The ship gets a 1. We plan to take a cruise every year. However moving forward it will NOT be with Carnival

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

Great destination and staff but the ride was rocky by tiffanymaple03

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

Ship had something wrong and rocked the whole time so bring lots of motion sick meds. Also ship broke down for a couple of hours at sea. I had a great time other than that.

It was a family cruise that was horrible about 6 member got wrong cabins and staff could t correct problem due to cruise being full to capacity. The ship was very rockey. I don’t think we were all together at one point on the cruise because people were always seasick

Overall it was a fun trip and would recommend to others but you need to get better food options. The server Albert was very friendly and accommodating to us and our Room Steward Francis was nice and friendly.

Okay cruise by CruisingBebe

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

Not sure I will cruise on Carnival again. This cruise line tends to attract large groups traveling together. These groups sometimes made it hard to maneuver around the ship. For instance on lido deck and in the buffet they would have large groups gathered around one or two small tables.

This ship although cozy and nice should undergo some refurbishments. There were obvious signs of wear.
