Carnival Elation Cruise Reviews - Reviews

The over all cruise and entertainment was good just need better food

like I said we did not think about how many kids would be on board and my husband ended up getting sick with a stomach bug and stayed in the cabin most of the cruise.

First day and they messed up my plans for my 2 kids birthday

Cruise was a great trip. Given the Thanksgiving holiday and the additional youth on the cruise, it went off smoothly. Would take this cruise again.

Overall for our firs lt cruise we really enjoyed it with our family and looking forward to our next one

A good time was had by us both. Got our money's worth.

I usually love cruising with Carnival but this one was the exception. Do not recommend this ship.

All in all I would sail this ship again, with the exception of freeport, never will I go there again. between the crew members and the upkeep of the ship it was a great experience. we had a lot of fun, and carnival took good care of us regarding the delay from the hurricane. carnival in general gained a lot of respect from us. we have already booked three more cruises and are waiting to head out!

Tiffany Buffett did not e joy. No 24hrs food service

Very enjoyable and relaxing cruise. It is so easy to cruise out of JAX; port is easy to get to, park and embark. We had an extra day and a half because of Hurricane Nicole, and the captain gave us regular updates and kept us well away from the storm. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Cruise was about as expected for the price we paid. Did not realize the amount of motion felt due to the size of the boat on the Atlantic Ocean as it was significantly worse than sailing in the Caribbean.

they need to upgrade their food some and get some better entertainment in my opinion. The ship needs some upgrades as well. I hear they are gonna retire it. Maybe thats the best thing. I enjoyed it for the most part. I wouldn't go on it again however. Once and done. Been there and done that.

The cruise was the best thing I ever did for our first cruise.

All in all this is a very small ship but it has a lot to offer. It is great for 4 or 5 cruises. If you are looking to get away on a short trip and have a blast give the Elation a try.

We originally picked this cruise because if fit into the schedule I could get off for work. It was shorted than we have done in the past but we were excited to get back on a boat after 3 long years. The weather was perfect and each of the 2 stops were amazing. We wish the cruise were longer but we had a great time, the weather at that time of year was perfect. Low to mid 80's with pure sun!

We enjoyed our cruise very much. It was relatively quite and relaxing. We will definitely book another cruise with Carnival.

No comments, other than I would have preferred more adult music entertainment such as jazz group or singer.

Boring on the boat .Didn't go to princess cays . Didn't have nothing to do on the boat.

Disappointed that cruise. Com stop the free $100 on board credit and off excursions because the trip wasn’t $500. And I have booked 12 cruise with you to get these rewards.

My first cruise over 25 years ago had rough seas (which cancelled all outdoor activities and made many passengers & crew members seasick), so I was excited to try cruising again. I was surprised how many children were there since not a holiday period. We enjoyed the cruise overall - its crew members were polite, efficient, and hard-working. The food was tasty with so many options. The cabin was nice with the picture window. Overall, a good experience.
