Review summary

Had a great time and traveled with great friends. Our only big complaint was music choices and it didn’t seem to be a lot to do on sea days other than shopping or bingo.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
FTTF made it a great experience. Everything went smooth.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Food was great and servers so friendly

Freedom Restaurant

5 out of 5

Our server Annalyn was the best. She kept us laughing while tending to her job.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Bingo was so much fun. After 3 cruises we finally won a ship on a stick playing trivia.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
Stage shows didn’t disappoint us. Finally found a group that played a mix of country and 70/80’s music. Did not like the string trio in the main lobby at all. Every night the same stuff over and over. Needed to be more lively music.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Everyone we came in contact with was excellent. Always smiling and eager to share about families and ask about ours.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Second time on Freedom and we really loved her. Will be sorry to see her leave Galveston but maybe we can sail on her in Alaska.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Very comfortable bed, plenty of room for what little time we were in there and always clean. Cabin steward made sure we had ice in our bucket.

Ship tip

Bring an extension cord for chargers.

Been there several times but still manage to find something new to explore.

George Town, Grand Cayman

5 out of 5
We did the Atlantis submarine and would highly recommend this. Saw lots of coral and fish. Finished with time to do shopping and grabbed a bite to eat at Margaritaville. The entertainment their was great.

Most people love sea days to chill and read drink and relax... everyone is different but can't please all I guess ?
