Carnival Elation Cruise Reviews - Reviews

We had 5 people. Overall no complaints just wish the A/C was working and the refrigerator worked.

Overall good experience. Staff were really awesome and very cheerful

This was my first cruise. I did enjoy myself. Personally it was rather warm, and the free on board water seemed salty and made me feel dehydrated. The on board activities and entertainment are great. The dining is good, with plenty of options, would recommend seasoning salt. Mr. Wirat from housekeeping, Cousin Rell from entertainment and Stephan the Cruise Director are efficient at the jobs.

Music Power band made our entire cruise! We will follow them wherever they go! Dana in dining is truly THE BEST she kept us coming back every night just for her! Nyoman in housekeeping was everything and more for not only us but our kids too!

It is not fair for me to rate this cruise as I had to care for my grandchildren while their parents enjoyed the cruise, which they did. It was their first time and won’t be their last.

When I booked this cruise it was told to be I had free drinks I Paid for but once I got there it was not correct so I was very unpleased

Overview, had an awesome time. We had an awesome time. ..................................................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

This was my first cruise. And I enjoyed it very much. Look forward in doing it again in the future.

The staff not having to appear enthusiastic about working due to automatic gratuities. Some didn't deserve a tip.

Had a great trip but xould use more entertainment throughout the day and night. Was not impressed with Princess Cay and Nassau is nothing like it used to be.

We've been on a carnival cruise before and this one was like a Low Budget Carnival. Diesel leak, 2 elevators were working, ice and ice cream machine was constantly breaking, phone charge in our room did not work. But the staff and waiters were amazing.

It was a nice experience but we dont think its for us.

Our plan was to enjoy the scenery from our balcony, whether in port or cruising. My husband had had a fall earlier and was confined to a wheelchair so we did no excursions, but I pushed him a lot of miles on board in the wheelchair. We relaxed in our cabin and as he is almost completely blind as well as deaf, I read aloud to him both from the balcony when in port and from the bed when dark. Relax we did, going out for our late dinners.

I enjoyed the cruise. Very disappointed in the food. The quality isn’t nearly what it was pre-Covid.

My Family and I picked the Elation for out girls trip, it was 8 of us. The ship itself was a little dated the staff prior to boarding the ship were welcoming and pleasant. However, onboard the room staff were a little sassy. also I woke up with three bites in my chest the first night and still have the scars to prove it (bed bugs). This ship rocked and swayed really bad the first day so i went to my room quite early from being ill as well as other members of my family, to the point where one had to seek medical attention and was charged $200 and then they had the nerve to charge here twice which we did get resolved. The Guest Service person could have been a little more pleasant, but a few of them were awesome and the others warmed up a day or two later. Bartenders and wait staff for the dinners were wonderful and the drinks were tasty. The first day menu was excellent, but by the next day the food began to taste like left overs. It took a long time to get sandwiches and pizza no matter when you wanted it. For the Captains dinner the Captain didn't even show up, that was a real bummer. We thought the Captain would at least walk around to meet us later since he didn't show to the dinner but did not. The comedy show could have been longer. There were children in the pool which was fine but then in the hot tubs as well which didn't give the adults much of anything relaxing to do. Kids running around after curfew so there was no quite time. or in our cabin as kids were running up and down the hall. They were playing with the elevators holding up floors.. Everything was overpriced and internet plans sucked, Carnival wanted every penny you have. I've been on Carnival cruises before and they have really gone downhill. Will not be using the Elation for future cruises.

I was very disappointed in this vacation. The ship was too crowded and not enough places for enjoyment would love to have had more access to water

First time cruise for us. Many activities to enjoy. Dining was practically anytime everywhere. Staff was polite and courteous and accommodated our needs. A wonderful experience that we will soon repeat.

Great trip over all! Very disappointed in Mother Nature and bummed we couldn’t make it to Princess Cays. We were also very disappointed in the people traveling that just allowed their young teenagers to run around the ship, play on the elevators, disrupt shows and events in the main lounge. Overall it was a great time had by our family!

Small ship, but we had a blast. Probably gonna skip going at high peak times to help avoid the crowd

It was a great bargain cruise. Fun for the whole family!
