Review summary

Great cruise--awesome time. Recommend it to everyone!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
This was my second cruise. Both on Carnival Freedom. First was an Eastern Caribbean cruise and this one was the Western Caribean. BOTH were fabulous. Absolutely loved the extreme zipline in Jamaica and swimming with the stingrays in Grand Cayman was awesome. I enjoyed a relaxing day in Cozumel visiting the shops. The Carnival crew was outstanding on both trips. I would recommend this cruise to everyone!

If you don't find something onboard to entertain you then something is wrong with you!

Our room steward, Agund, was extremely nice, helpful and accommodating. Our wait staff in the Posh restaurant (En Lovey, Augusto and Jose), as mentioned earlier, were outstanding!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Great layout just wish there could be a way to eliminate or contain the smoke from the casino better (I'm not saying to band smoking). The common areas were very nice and clean.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
The cabin itself was great...the location, not so much. It was too close to the elevator which connected to the open free space to the third floor lounge and because of that it was rather noisy in the evenings until about midnight because of the entertainment.

Ship tip

Pack light!

Ports of call

Galveston, Texas

5 out of 5
I love Galveston and just explored on my own.

Montego Bay, Jamaica

5 out of 5
Loved it. The people are friendly and informative about their country. Extreme zipline is the bomb! REALLY enjoyed this one and can't wait to do it again.

George Town, Grand Cayman

5 out of 5
Beautiful port. Stingray City where we swam with the stingrays was a great experience. Snorkeling was great also. A LOT of fun!

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Nice! Easy. Just explored on my own.

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
It just takes too long before the actual disembarkation begins, however, I understand that there was a medical emergency reason for the delay this time and once we actually began it wasn't bad and went quickly.
