Carnival Jacksonville Cruise Reviews

I have not been to the Bahamas and my oldest granddaughter was begging to go anywhere on a cruise. She was out from college for the summer and this one was a good time for her to go. The water is absolutely beautiful as is the scenery. But don't go in the summer. It is so hot and humid. The areas we went were clean and nice. Prices for t-shirts and sweatshirts were 40,50,60 dollars. The ship was ...

I went with family and it was a blast. Everyone was so nice during the trip. The service, the food, the islands. I absolutely loved it. I always looked forward to dinner time. A three course meal, awesome servers. I loved showtime. The food options were delicious. My servers, Jaka and Melanie, were awesome. They made dinner great, and became like family quite fast. It was hard to leave them, ...

I choice this cruise, one because I only sail with carnavial because I have the best time. First getting on and off was very easy. The food in MDR is great and the chocolate molting cake with ice cream is to die for. My stewarts I always have are the best But I tip them well because they deserve it. The shows are great and comedy club comedians were a hoot! Casino was fun and music was great. Of ...

My husband and I are new cruisers and this was the first one that we have been on. This cruise for us was in celebration of our 4yr anniversary. The trip was a 5 day cruise to the Bahamas on the Carnival Elation that departed from Jaxport as well as returned to. we visited Nassau and Princess cays in this time we stayed in a states room with a balcony over all the room was great but our room ...

This was second Carnival cruise to the Bahamas, this time my husband and I choose to bring our kids (17,14,11). My oldest daughter (17) loved the O2 club as she is very social. My son (14) enjoyed the video games in Club C but isn't as social and left anytime dancing happened. My 11 year old went to Club Ocean and even though she was with the oldest group got pretty bored. They loved the water ...

I recently took 7 family members on the Carnival Elation and to my surprise, this has been the worst vacation to date. The food, ports, service and entertainment was subpar. I’m convinced it left with Covid. If you’re looking for a budget cruise in amenities and staff attitudes, with prices and charge ups that doesn’t balance, please book now. I have been on three other cruises with Carnival and ...

Just returned " happy and heavier" from Carnival Elation! What a perfect four day cruise my family had because of each of you. This was our THIRD cruise with Carnival and it keeps getting better and better. It was a fabulous four days with a great crew, food, entertainment, and beautiful scenery. To ( The Crew)- Thank you, you worked so hard at truly given us one the the greatest family ...

We chose this cruise because we needed to be in Jacksonville for another event and decided it was convenient and we didn’t need to drive further south. If you’re from the north there are 2 things you need to know. 1. These people down here really still smoke a lot more and yes there is a designated area on board up above the pool outside but All Day it wafts right at you. 2. We went to a special ...

Price point was great, location of port was good for us and easy to get to. We knew this was a smaller/older ship so our expectations were based on that understanding. This was our 8th cruise total , but first one since COVID. The embarkation/debarkation at Jacksonville was the smoothest I have ever experienced for any cruise line taken. The staff for the entire ship was exceptional. Our room ...

I have been on several cruises and this ship was the worst. I have cruised Norwegian and Royal Carribean and the food , entertainment was superior to the buffet food on the Elation. I took my daughter to her first cruise and I was embarrassed because of the lack of food variety at the buffet. (Choices were the same for the five days)/ I am scheduled to bring my granddaughter on her first cruise ...
