customers say

Carnival Elation receives generally positive reviews for its service, value, and family-friendly atmosphere. Many guests praise the staff's professionalism and friendliness, as well as the smooth operation of the cruise. However, there are mixed opinions on food quality and entertainment, with some guests finding these aspects lacking. The ship is described as older and in need of some updates, but cleanliness and basic comfort are maintained. Pricing is seen as a strong point, making it an attractive option for budget-conscious travelers. Overall, the cruise offers a pleasant experience, especially for first-timers and families, though those seeking luxury or high-end amenities may find it lacking.
