Review summary

I love the cruise there’s lots of things to do I was never very crowded. I would probably take it a cruise on freedom again many times to come should I choose to do so love the ship love the people love the ports it was a great experience all around

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Everything was great, except I almost had to leave my belt in customs, Or as I checked my baggage and stuff.Now I don’t have an issue with this but, in the formal dining room there was a puppet of ackmed the dead terrorist and people walking around with it. At the gallery or art auction there was a gentleman wearing a Smith and Wesson T-shirt with guns clearly on the back. I find it rather unusual to be singled out like that as I was not trying to cause a disruption as I’m sure these people weren’t either. Other than that the enbarment went smooth.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
The food was pretty good although I wish you had been better selections at times in the Formal dining. I was also glad I didn’t have to get the bubbly package because coffee tea water and juices were plenty for me.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
I attended the art auction as well as a jewelry giveaway, other than that I didn’t do a whole lot other than go to shore

Cabin / Stateroom

The cabin was kept clean and tidy at all times and nothing was ever bothered which was great we didn’t have to worry about anything and I loved it.Oh and was great there was room under the bed to store your luggage.

Ship tip

I would suggest to sail on freedom although I’m sure there are other ships compared to her and I’ll probably take her again if I cruise I love the ship, the atmosphere and the staff.I guess you could say you guys kind of spoiled me.

Ports of call

Galveston, Texas

4 out of 5
The transition was pretty fast both ways and we didn’t have to wait a really long time that’s a big plus.

Cozumel, Mexico

4 out of 5
I love Cozumel except for the vendors because they were kind of pushy but other than that I had a great time and drink lots it was fun for all.

George Town, Grand Cayman

5 out of 5
I like this part because it was so clean and neat and very friendly and reminded me of Branson Missouri which I love to go shopping in and I found some great bargains I wouldn’t mind going there again

Montego Bay, Jamaica

4 out of 5
Got to sample jerk chicken. That day was kind a rainy and gloomy but we did get to see a part of Jamaica that was interesting I don’t think I’m really excited about this one but if you wanna tour I would take it

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
It was a fairly simple procedure and went fast with no issues
