Carnival Elation

The Carnival Elation offers a host of new facilities and features following an extensive renovation in 2009. Carnival Elation’s refurbishment included the addition of Serenity, an exclusive adults-only retreat, a new Circle “C” club geared to 12-to 14-year-olds, and expanded Lido-area dining options, including a new Mongolian Wok custom stir-fry station and an updated deli and dessert station. The Carnival Elation’s suites were also remodeled and cosmetic enhancements were made to a variety of shipboard areas.
