Horrible experience by skipsanchez

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Freedom

Carnival cruises went from the party cruise line to the Walmart cruise line. I have been cruising Carnival for 25 years and have never been as disappointed as I was with this whole experience. Food used to be an experience on your ships. Now it is flat our embarrassing. The condition of this ship should be an insult to you and your customers. The whole experience was just flat out HORRIBLE. I can go on and on, but Carnival does not care of there is absolutely no way they would put out this kind of product and experience.

Camp ocean was a bust. Needed more available food options. More activities for the kids.

Great Eastern Caribbean Cruise by xtap70

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Freedom

We did the 5 Night Eastern Caribbean Cruise to the Dominican Republic and Grand Turks. It was my partner's first cruise and he loved it. He said it was the best vacation he's ever been on. It does rank up there for me as well, so we will be scheduling another trip with Carnival soon.

Food quality not up to mark by daxadinesh

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Freedom

Food quality and indian food was very average. No proper spice..More training with professional indian cook with right grocery and spice will increase reputation.j Fresh juice to buy is surprising. My last cruise with other company was excellent for food.

Big Party Ship by ab272

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Carnival Freedom

Not the cruise I was hoping for with my family. This was a party ship and not very family friendly. My kids had to go to the bar to get a soda. Guest services did not want to help with my room situation and kept sending me to other places for help.

Great Family Trip by ImTheBrownGuy

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (young children)
Ship: Carnival Freedom

This was a full family cruise for my family (50 people!) and we had a great time. The ship is older, but still offers good fun. We had a 10 month old with us, so at times we were limited on what we could do (babies in diapers cannot use the water activities) we had a fun time.

Amazing Time! by nanettebillick

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Freedom

This was a birthday cruise. We did not alert anyone to that fact but somehow the staff knew and made sure to make it special. It is that attention to detail that we love.

It was a good time by pwrlovvorn

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Carnival Freedom

The ports were great. Andy (cruise director) was a lot of fun. I just wasn’t too impressed with the ship itself.

Awesome Family Vacation by 4Herrins

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Carnival Freedom

This was an overall great cruise. We had the best cruise director we've ever had and would cruise on the Freedom again just for him.

Don’t have high expectations by whitmanclan

Ship: Carnival Freedom

Do not recommend Carnival. Terrible organization getting on and off. Changed itineraries while cruising due to passenger medical emergency which is expected. Will not be back.

I've had much better cruises... we will stick with royal Caribbean cruise line!! by ttonia77

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Carnival Freedom

We won't travel with carnival again. They charge you for. Soda package but make it difficult to even get the soda... then no water is included in the package. We prefer other cruise lines over carnival. Not happy that the cruise line did not reimburse us for changing the port from grand turk to Bahamas... if we wanted to go to the Bahamas we would have chosen the Bahamas....

The food was awful, and it was crowded by hannahkeith5989

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Carnival Freedom

I’ve been on multiple cruises and typically enjoyed each one. I know that no vacation is perfect and cruises have their limitations. That being said, we really had to search for the silver linings. The food was truly atrocious and gave us food poisoning! Our travel day home was miserable! The staff is always a pleasure and worked hard to be friendly. But even they told us the cruise is overbooked and they were short staffed. I would not recommend booking this cruise on this ship. and even though I’ve had good carnival cruise experiences prior, this one was so bad that I will definitely not be booking through carnival again.
