Sail Date: Feb 2018
Cabin: Interior

This was our first cruise on a ship this small and will likely be our only cruise on a small ship. Elation had just come out of an extensive dry dock a few months prior to our sailing and the decor was beautiful and the cabins comfortable.

The food in the dining room and buffet was average at best and mostly served at or below room temperature. Drinks and shows were the best part other than our time spent at Half Moon Cay.

There isn't a whole lot to do on sea days and the deck areas fill up quickly. The casino was small and always crowded. The lines for dinner wrapped all the way around the atrium.

Cabin Review

Interior

Cabin 4B

Just a basic interior cabin, decor was updated and modern so that was nice.

Port Reviews

Half Moon Cay

Most beautiful beach I have ever seen!

Nassau

A lot of people don't like Nassau, but having been there a couple of times, we felt perfectly comfortable exploring on our own. We spent a few hours wondering around and were back on the ship for lunch.
