Carnival Freedom Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Love it! Definitely will do it again. It was a great experience .

Overall I loved my cruise. With the exception of the Cayman Island and the disembarkation process, I had a fabulous time. This is my second cruise at the same ports and I learn something new each time that will improve upon my next visit. I had a wonderful time and plan to make to this a regular thing. I have encourage my family to go with me to make it a better experience. No one can do it all even in seven days so I see why people go to the same ports more than once. Carnival Cruise Lines has the best customer service ever. I never felt slighted or ignore by the staff on the cruise. There were nothing but smiles and they make you feel like family. I look forward to cruising again in 2020.

Loved the excursions. Pleasantly surprised by the price match guarantee for excursions, and checking on line they did have the best prices. Our excursion to the mainland from Cozumel was by a ferry and not by tender, so worries about a choppy trip from other reviews were unwarranted. Beginners scuba at Don Foster's on Cayman Island was our best excursion to date. More coral and fish than I have seen before. Secret River in Cozumel in an underground cenote was a close second. Great ship if you like to drink and gamble, but not the right ship for us. My son is 18, and no social activities for 18-21 year olds. The on-ship entertainment was fine, although not as extensive as on other ships we have been on. Staff was excellent. Our Posh restaurant servers Lelix, Nono and Anak were first class, and made us feel very welcome. Our room steward, Joaquim, greeted us by name every day and our room was always perfectly made up.

We had a wonderful time. Meet many people from different parts of the USA. Food was good and service was even better. Our room was clean and tidy.

Overall a great experience, staff were friendly and everyone enjoyed themselves. Only negative, missing items from my daughter's room and getting from the ship was terrible.

When getting off the ship the communication is not very good, it stopped after when they told us that we were waiting for the clearance personnel to board and start disembarking. Then there was another cruise ship come into port and start offloading and our ship came to a stop due to an emergency and still no communication. If you weren't off the ship before the emergency then you were stuck without information and no lunch.

Great vacation and very relaxing with a lot of entertainment

I liked everything except for: - high gratuity ($90 per person is ALOT!!!!) - rude stateroom steward - poor Embarkation/Disembarkation experience

we had a great time more night family shows would of been great

Great family getaway. Carnival experience was as expected and we will be back.

This was my first cruise and it was absolutely amazing! I look forward to going on the next one, that's how exciting it was! The staff was phenomenal and they deserve all of the recognition for making sure that over 2000 were satisfied at all times!

Nice family cruise. Granted it was Spring Break, but there were a lot of youngsters on the ship. Best food ever all around. Too much motion on this ship. Rockiest ever.

I will do another carnival cruise. Staff was great. Food could be more vegetarian friendly. Overall great experience.

Overall a complete disappointment. Was very excited for the trip and I would have to say the crew made it one of the biggest waste of monies I have ever done in my life. Do not go on the Freedom!! Stay as far away from this ship as possible if you are looking for a good time.

It was a good cruise and very affordable. They should have better entertainment and movies on the cabin TV or a Movie theater.

This was our first, but not the last cruise! We were so happy with this one that I am looking for the next adventure with Carnival!!!

Overall, it was a GREAT vacation!! Carnival service did not disappoint. Everywhere on the ship was immaculate always - clean and fresh. While all the food was good, the buffets were repetitive and not as flavorful as I remembered - some items had that "preservable and preserved" flavor and consistency which brought some disappointment. However, it was NOT a trip breaker, by any means. It was wonderful!!

Loved this cruise. Weather was perfect. It was my daughter’s first cruise and she really enjoyed herself.

Had a great time. Minus Jamaica and Disembarkation

Loved the ship, it was not overcrowded. Wished internet/wifi was faster. Nice ports with lots to do but wished we could have stayed longer at each port.
