Sail Date: Feb 2015
Cabin: Ocean View

Background Info: My husband and I booked this cruise as a Christmas gift for my parents. This was their first cruise (first time out of the country) and our fifth.

Ship information: While the Elation is an older ship, it is very well maintained and very clean. We booked two ocean view rooms. Both were the size we expected which allowed for plenty of room to move around and be comfortable. While this is one of Carnival's smaller and older ships, it is still beautiful and is a great ship to sail on. This ship did tend to rock quite a bit more than any other ship I have been on. This may have been due to weather conditions.

Activities: There were activities happening on the ship every 15 - 20 minutes or so. For people who wanted to stay very active and involved in everything, they had plenty to do. For others who just wanted to relax, there was plenty of time and space for that as well. We did have some pretty cold weather leaving New Orleans and coming back into port at the end of the cruise which toned down some of the deck activities.

Room was as expected. Living area was clean and tidy with adequate space. There was a box in the corner of the room under the flat screen television that made it difficult to walk around the bed. This box was where the life jackets were stored. The restroom was also clean. The shower was nice sized and the water pressure was great.
