ELATION or Vision of the Seas??


Recommended Posts

What would you choose? I found a decent deal on both of these, and cant decide which to go with. One is a six day the other is a 7 day with similar ports. I am a 1st time cruiser with a family of 4 . 2 children ages 3 & 6. Which would you go with? Please No FLAMES! I know theyre two different lines. Thank You!

Not sure about Elation, but we did our 1st cruise last year on Vision to Mexico. It was for our honeymoon and we had a great time. My DH was convinced he would hate cruising, we are both now totally hooked. Hope you have a great time what you choose.

I've been on the mexico cruises from CA and I went on the Elation the last time. I loved it. They have Camp Carnival for the kids. Carnival is very laid back which I like. That's my opinion.

 

Have a great trip!

I would pick VOS, but it is because I've sailed the Elation 3 times. Had great trip each time. We have done only 1 RCI cruise and it was on the Splendour of the Seas. Very nice ship and possibly the most laid back, relaxing cruise so far.

 

Never had a bad cruise so toss a coin.

Vision also has a kids club, almost all cruise lines do.

 

We cruised on Vision this past Christmas and had a lovely time. I've only cruised Carnival once and it wasn't for us, but it's not the largest cruise company by accident.

 

I'd go for the longer cruise.
