Review summary

Very courteous staff. Anything you needed you could get. But drinks were outrageous! Need to have all-inclusive packages.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Food was great! Convenience of eating times was not so great. Especially for the person who tends to eat 5-6 small meals a day.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Entertainment was nice. Best part of nightlife was the piano bar. The gentleman who plays there is very open and funny. Very talented!!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Very helpful staff. All wanted to sell you another drink.. lol.... But overall, the Freedom has a top-notch staff.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Very very clean. Once you find your way around the first time, you know where everything is.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Stateroom was very nice and always kept clean. Was actually cleaned more than once daily.

Ports of call

Ocho Rios, Jamaica

3 out of 5

Was very pretty there and got to climb the Dunn's river falls. Island natives try way too hard to hastle you to buy their things though. From wood carvings, to sketchy taxi tours, to even drugs, they try their hardest to sell you anything. sometimes 2 and 3 people at a time are trying to haggle with you.

Key West, Florida

5 out of 5

If you can get away from the tourist traps, The Schooner Wharf is a great local place with live music and great seafood. We generally travel to Key West every year and cant stay away from there.

Don't Miss: Just rent a scooter and see it all.

George Town, Grand Cayman

5 out of 5

Dolphin Cove!! Swam with dolphins. Very fun! Everyone on island was very nice!

Pros: Cleanliness, ammount of things to do.

Cons: Alcholic beverages were too overpriced considering what you were paying for the cruise. Time almost seemed too regimented... But thats what cruises are about... Right?

Recommends Carnival Freedom? Yes!
