Carnival Elation Cruise Reviews - Reviews

We are ready to book again!! This was a great experience, from A to Z. We absolutely loved the room. We felt closer to the water on deck six than with other cruises. And the room was spacious enough to feel like a home away from home. AND minimal motion. We slept like babies. So we are ready for our next Carnival Cruise!! Christmas?

Ship was coming out of dry dock - we never knew any of this. We did not get on the ship the first day until 9:30P with 2500 other passengers. AWFUL.

I was not impressed overall with this cruise. We are going to try other cruise lines to see if they are different. The overall experience left a bad taste in my mouth...

we did not have a great first experience. I don't know that we will be sailing with carnival again. unless its awhile from now, with a different ship.

as for our time we did have a good time. we spent Tuesday night in the Blue Iguana and our bartender, Ordalis was AWESOME, so much fun and it was my daughter in laws birthday, he knew how to entertain and serve.

The seas were rough, but I liked it, it rocked me to sleep. Slept later, than I ever do, at home. The ports were beautiful and the weather was good. The ice cream machine was broken almost the entire time and that aggravated my husband. He says he doubts he will ever go on another.

we had a lot of fun and were busy all the time plenty to do if you keep track of whats going on definitely would go again oceanview room was nice would recommend it

Horrible cruise line! Would use a different cruise line and travel some where than going on carnival!! Most of the staff could not speak English. The only activity was gambling while on boat unless your a drinker!

Wished I had cancelled the cruise when I was informed of ship changed. It was like the chefs on this cruise never cooked before nothing I mean nothing had flavor.. however I did enjoy the ice cream ... but all fat girls love ice cream!

Was very disappointed abou5 this cruise. Very unorganized, rude staff extremely long lines, bad food. No resolution was given for staff walking in on my husband and I in our stateroom.

It was so much fun, it was mine and my boyfriend's first cruise and it was a great experience. There was so much for us to do on the ship. The gym was a very decent size, we were happy with it.

Overall, excellent cruise. We will plan to cruise again with Carnival but be better prepared for Carnival's changes. I'd recommend Carnival in the future, particularly those with smaller children.

Cruise was okay. Cabin we had was shaking the entire trip. Unable to move us to another room. Lack of sleep caused our trip to be somewhat miserable.

We really had a good time and the ship was just fine. I wish Carnival offered some cruises out of Jacksonville heading to the north (like Canada and northeast US).

Price of the cruise was worth the money we paid. Overall, the family had a great time. Everybody was happy they went. Food was OK. We mostly dined in the dining room and had a flex time. The flex time allowed us to meet several great and wonderful people on the cruise.

Overall a great trip. My niece who was a first time cruiser had a great time. I also had a great time. The cruise director Kevin made the shows fun. The comedians were funny also. The food was good. We loved our dining room experience.

Relaxing, fun family cruise for the value that we paid. Entertainment was great, dining room food was fabulous and staff was extremely wonderful. Our teenagers had a blast in the Club!!

Although we enjoyed the Cruise immensely. Don't know if Cruising is the best avenue for our future family trips. Family reunions, on the other hand would be great. Don't have to see all members all the time. Just enough to avoid bringing up past family issues.

it was ok we had a nice time but not enough places to stop at. if we had more islands to visit I think we would enjoy more. the staff could have been more nice to the youth.

For our first cruise we chose the right voyage for our family. Jax Port is pretty easily accessible and we found our way around nicely. Besides two minor incidents with staff, we couldn't be happier with the entire experience! We look forward to future cruises. Steven and Pamela Mirabella and family
