Herman our room steward took really great care of us for the 14 days we were onboard. Orlando in the Red Frog Pub was friendly and a great bartender.

We love the Carnival Freedom Conquest class ship. The layout was easy to maneuver.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

The bed was comfortable, the interior, interior cabin cube style room made it seem much larger and we enjoyed the location.

Ship tip

The BBQ lunch is available on Sea days and is located upstairs from the lido marketplace buffet nearest the aft of the ship. No charge to eat there.

Grand Turk Island

One of our favorite ports. We have been here numerous times and enjoyed Margaritaville even though we had an early port this time.

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

Beautiful sandy beach and perfect weather. The tender boat was a little rocky but that's expected. Did not disappoint.

Smooth transition from ship to port. Facial recognition software makes this process so much easier.
