Carnival Jacksonville Cruise Reviews

How can you not love a cruise? You CAN'T. And this one was really good. The shows and activities are fun and just getting away is alway nice. The stateroom was very good. My only issue was the food wasn't that great. (not including the chocolate melting cake!) The variety of food limited and each items just didn't taste that great. Before going on the cruise I read many reviews on the ...

I had already prepared myself to be disappointed! But to my surprise I had a great time. Yes the rooms are "worn" but still functional! The rooms on my deck, Main, had already been renovated in the front of the ship from 101 to the very front ( not mine). Some cabins on the Riviera Deck also were renovated. Stairwells to the Upper Deck were closed off and to the Riviera Deck where they were ...

We loved the boat and had a great time. The staff really made the difference for us. The housekeeping, dining and bar staff were always willing to help us and provide the best service. The ship is older than some of the newer Carnival ships but for the price paid and location (we live 30 minutes from the port), we couldn't think of a better 4 day get away from. We recommend planning your ...

This was the only cruise we were able to find that fit into our granddaughter spring break. My husband and I have been cruising regularly over the past few years and have grown to enjoy each cruise on a variety of Cruise Lines. The Elation was the antithesis of every other cruise. Rather than being cramped, we chose to get two cabin. Each cabin had one(!!!!) electrical outlet. There was a ...

Had a great Easter trip on this cruise. We traveled by taxi from Jacksonville airport to Jax port for $35. It was very easy transportation . As suite guests the express embarkation was a breeze. As always, the sail away party was great! We upgraded to the Grand suite a couple days before the trip. This room afforded us with a wonderful walk in closet , much larger balcony , bathroom ...

We chose this cruise because we love to go to Half Moon Cay! Also we left from Jacksonville, FL which is convenient for us. We have cruised about 11 times, 10 of them on a Carnival ship, and this one by far was our worst. The food was terrible!!! We had to pay extra for steak. The filet was so tough and it was not even edible. The choices went down down every night! One night we decided to ...

We had a great time on the elation. This was our fourth cruise. We went with four other couples two of which were first time cruisers. They thoroughly enojoyed their time on the ship. The ship is a little dated, I would compare it to the old style vegas look. Staff was friendly and room steward was great (Harold). We stayed in an interior stateroom for this cruise and I was surprised that it was ...

Our budget, and when we got on the elation, WOW, we had a grand time. The cruise director Kevin , was the best, our Waiter Christian, he was super. He knew what we wanted to eat, before we knew. food was fabulous, Oyr cabin was roomy, clean, our percer DEDI, he was amazing, . Would I take another cruise? You betcha. We had a great time, Lido deck was busy, met alot of great people., made some new ...

We decided to do a last minute vacation for my son's spring break. Carnival had a good price and the port was only a couple hours drive. Getting on the ship was easy and the staff was friendly. The cabin was a decent size and the bed was pretty comfy. There was a TV, but the resolution was not good. There was a variety of stations for viewing. The closet was a nice size and plenty of ...

I wanted to sail out of Jacksonville as I had not done so before and was lookig for a cruise to take my daughter in law for a quick cruise. I have cruised Carnival three other times and have done 42 cruises. Embarkation was delatedfor everyone until 1:30 due to having to get materials off the ship. This included people who paid for Faster to the Fun..This ship is severely worn. Our cabin looked ...
