Carnival Elation Cruise Reviews - Reviews

The cruise itself 100% didn't enjoy because we didn't go to our original destination. We was on water more the land.

To cruise again on a Carnival ship there has to be deals i cant refuse and it has to be one of the larger ships

I love cruises.... but this was the worst experience I’ve ever had! Everyone on the ship was suffering from motion sickness for days! I at least saw 3 people throw up right in front of me!!! The boat was rocky ALL NIGHT AND DAY! Most people didnt show up to dinner or entertainment because they were so sick! If you decide to go on this ship make sure you’re stocked up on Dramamine!!! My husband and I spent 4 or the 5 nights in the cruise SICK TO OUR STOMACHS!!

Cruise was relaxing and entertaining. Staff were very accommodating and friendly. There was plenty to do on-board so there was very little moments of boredom. Definitely recommend.

Not pleased at all with the way this vacation went. Items billed to my credit card without my permission or knowledge of it. Very very disappointed.

Carnival really let us down on this one. My extended family are frequent carnival guests but agreed that it’s been slipping of late. They too cited lack of dress code enforcement and quality of dining as a reason to seek other options. Surprised that we could pinpoint what rooms had people smoking weed but no one did anything about it as it was there all 6 days... if I had it to do again I would have spent my money and enjoyed Florida more and stayed off the boat.

Caribbean trip on an older ship made for a fun experience. Although we didn't love every part of our week, we did try and make the most of our time onboard and do as many of the little things as possible.

Overall a very nice cruise. We had not gone with Carnival (Royal Caribbean was out last two) so we did not know what to expect. The balcony room was good and the food in the dinning rooms was very good. Buffets were too crowded with long lines. The food was very similar day after day at the breakfast buffet. Wish there was more variety and more tropical fruit choices (Royal often had fresh Papaya, Mango, Pineapple and Guava for instance). Here it was honeydew and cantaloupe most days. The shows were nice and the on ship Effy jewelry stores were well priced and nicely staffed. My 12 year had a great time on the water slides and arcade. The ports were very nice and the 5 days was a perfect amount to get away form the stress of work without feeling you were away too long.

This was a birthday cruise for me, for us to get away for the weekend. I would have gotten more rest and enjoyment staying home. The excursions were fine and enjoyable. The one thing I can say that was nice is that we met some nice people. We have pictures of some of the issues of the ship if anyone wishes to contact us. Your uploading process is not opening up to work for me to load pictures. Very disappointing cruise.

I was traveling with my 18 year old niece. My suggestion is do NOT get the Wi-Fi package otherwise you will just see the tops of your teenagers heads and that is all. That was my mistake, just trying to be thoughtful. The cruise, staff and food were a bit less than I expected, but I generally use Princess, so I may not be the best judge,

Great first ever cruise. First time out of the country for my 3 adult children (19 - 26) and they will very likely be cruising again from this experience. But be prepared to be overwhelmed with the things you can do both on and off the ship. Cruising can wear you out if your not paying attention! :-)

Loved the cruise. Ready for another one. I really enjoyed meeting new people and all the entertainment.

Overall, this was an amazing cruise. We loved the destinations. This cruise fit the length of time that we wanted for our honeymoon, during the dates we had available and allowed us to visit countries that were new to us, together.

This was the worse cruise it was dirty flies on all the food the lemonade was disgusting. Staff provided bad service. not much of a choice for people who don’t eat pork staff were rude had no manners. A low budge cruise. Its a rip off they take gratitude and triple tax on everything you buy

We were disappointed in the food quality and variety, pool size for the number of people on board, but did have a very relaxing time.

I was a nice time with family and friends. Marty kept things fun and the energy of the staff was really nice.

We had a great time! We love that cruising is such an easy vacation! We will do many more in the future!

Overall this cruising experience was ok. The staff was nice and the food was pretty good. Just not enough staff to monitor the food to ensure kids aren’t sticking their hands in food. One kid dropped the spoon on the floor and put it right back in the pan.

Overall the cruise was an amazing experience. It was my boyfriend and I first cruise & trip together and that made the experience special as we celebrated my birthday.

Overall it was ok. The ship is old and the pool way to small for everyone
