To sum it all up , On this cruise I celebrated my 13th yr Anniversary (Jan 6th) & my 48th Birthday (Jan11th) and it was by far the best ever . I have beautiful memories that will forever be sketched in my heart . Carnival Freedom is a beautiful ship that has an entire crew that are dedicated to making sure you will enjoy your time while sailing with them . They work very hard and very professional .

We arrived earlier than our check in time and were able to board the ship earlier and get some lunch which was absolutely awesome. Everyone was very professional and friendly during this process

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The dining room we were assigned to was the Chic Lounge and the food was superb as were all of the places we ate to on the ship . My husband loved the Mongolian Wok which he ate at everyday. The buffet had a variety of foods and I especially enjoyed guys burgers & frys and the Bbq on 10th floor . The drinks were on point

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
We did not participate in any onboard activities but heard various guests say that they enjoyed it .

Entertainment

5 out of 5
We enjoyed all of the shows , the men and women are so talented and it shows how much time and hard work they put into giving us a nice performance. The comedians were off the chain ,they all were very funny but by far Cowboy was my favorite. I loved the night club , they played a variety of good music . The on deck entertainment was awesome as well.

The personnel and staff aboard the Carnival Freedom are a group of amazing people I feel truly blessed to have met . Vanessa-junior hostess was just the most sweetest person. She really made this cruise so special for me and I looked forward to seeing her every day. She has such a humble personality. She made sure everything was perfect & always with a smile . The other hostesses were also very sweet and kind . Nolan - Head waiter was omg just the most funniest person he always kept us laughing . It was a wonderful atmosphere. Loved his personality ADI -Head waiter also had a wonderful personality. Nimas -waitress she was such a lovely person with a beautiful soul Jayandra -Cook Asian Corner was such a sweetheart he always remembered our name always had a smile and joked around with us and the food was wonderful. Ken - from Barbados-served drinks he was just so friendly always had a smile always willing to assist us and he had such a bubbly and kind hearted personality -such a great person. Heru-our stateroom steward was so very friendly and has a genuine heart . He had a smile everyday that greeted us on each and everyone of those days . It was such a pleasure to walk out my room and be greeted in that manner . Tj - was an amazing crew director who kept everything fun and exciting thee entire cruise .

Ports of call

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Love Coszmel !! We did not get off the ship only because it had started raining by the time we were which was ok because we have visited twice before .

Montego Bay, Jamaica

5 out of 5
We enjoyed Jamaica!! We had a very good tour guide named Allen who took care of us to and from our excursion . He made sure we felt safe

Galveston, Texas

5 out of 5
We had no problems in Galveston. In my opinion this port was much better then New Orleans.

George Town, Grand Cayman

5 out of 5
Loved the Cayman Islands again our tour guide to the beach was very friendly and we felt safe with him . The 7mile beach was so nice and relaxing.

Disembarkation

I forgot to mention that we did encounter some days of bad weather and the ship was rocking (my nerves were bad ), but I had confidence and trust in our Captain and his crew . He kept us informed and that eased my mind which allowed me to continue to enjoy my cruise .
