Review summary

Missed 2 of 3 ports spent days floating in storms. Heavy rocking. Poor entertainment and lack.of it. Poor food quality. If you dont eat seafood or mushrooms it will be slim on choices! Carnival has not offered anything for poor experience.

A cruise is what u make it. I’ve been on the Freedom befor and going again in January... 10th year straight going on carnaval cruises and never had any problems... Maybe you just expect much...... Some people just like to complain... It’s not a perfect world..... JS.....

Was on the freedom for the 2cd time in September. Loved it as always. Yes it is 37 feet smaller than the vista. Lol. But not a small ship at all. Food was good in all places I ate.

Seems cruising is just not for you. Freedom is not a small ship, sailed her in 2013 and absolutely loved it.

1st cruise amazing. Weather a little rough

Sucked

Horrible experience!! Cabin HOT! No day activities! One activity was ADULT COLORING. Slept for 2 days and watch same movies over and over with 4 people in a Hot room. Missed 2 ports. Called customer care said they would not give ANY refunds.
