Carnival Freedom Cruise Reviews - Reviews

We had fun and look forward to going again real soon.

Overall it was a fun cruise. It could have been better for our first time but didn't totally deter me from wanting to go on another one. I just think it might be a different cruise line next time. I know what to expect now.

I loved this cruise. The ship overall is great. I loved the deck 3 due to we can sit out there and relax. We can see the Pier runners from this deck. There was no shortage of activities. Loved the food and entertainment.

The cruise overall was good and met my expectations. There wasn’t much for big production shows but had a great rock band. The food was good.

This was our first cruise and we had a blast. Enjoyed every minute of it, even when the seas got a little rough on the last day. Had so much fum that within 48 of departing, we had another cruise booked.

We love cruising. There is so much to do if That is what you like or just relax if that’s your thing. We love all the shows and the atmosphere was fun and enjoyable.

We like the Conquest class ships. I particularly like Freedom over the Conquest because it has an actual Red Frog Pub on the promenade deck. It's a fun place to hang, play games, have a drink. We have YTD and the hostesses were very good about honoring our seating requests. As mentioned earlier, this cruise had lots of trivia during the day and every night had karaoke, both my favorite activities. (This hasn't been the case on other cruises).

I feel that this cruise and the ship was very poorly thought out and maintained and was yet the most expensive cruise that we have taken on Carnival. As a matter of fact both of the other couples have stated that they are done with Carnival. We will continue to use Carnival as this was only one bad experience out of the other 9 cruises that we have taken.

It was a good cruise but the crew never seemed happy always forced happy

There were 12 of us in our group. We made memories and made the best of the situations. We all have only been on Royal Caribbean and our biggest disappointment was mainly the bartending staff, the limit on drinks, not being able to drink 1st day. Missing shows due to timing with dinner was very disappointing. Needless to say we will not be booking another Carnival cruise.

I love Carnival but this was worst casino since there was no no smoking section. We left every night coughing and with burned eyes. My mother-in-law came with bronchitis and suffered greatly for it. Very disappointed.

Overall an amazing first time experience and already planning next cruise

Over-all we hated our time on Carnival and it ruined cruises for us completely. It was dirty, the music was bad, and one of the worst parts is it did not feel all inclusive,. Everywhere we went everyone was trying to sell us something. The photos are RIDICULOUSLY expensive. I have never seen prices that high for photos.. I will never cruise on Carnival even if you paid me.. Unfortunately we continue to have to pay off our debt from the cruise.

All the people were rude, the ship was very rough sailing, had to pay for everything, not a very good first impression.

I always enjoy cruising. I also like that I can go through to start off my cruise for a few dollars vs a bigger down payment with Carnival directly. I will always cruise!

To be the first time of our cruise... it was very good, it was better than I thought.

I would set sail with Carnival again I would also go on other cruise lines for better deals.

The cruise was an extremely poor experience. I am 33 and have been cruising since i was 15 and out of all the ships and cruise lines i have been on, I would say this is by far the worst experience i have been one. The staff was unpleasant, the director TJ was less than par, even on the announcements he was always annoyed sounding one quote was " seems like ppl thought 8 am was for everyone and its clearly not" when it came to cruise debarkation. My advice would be to let everyone on the boat off and go enjoy their family for their six months, to hopefully come back energized and just as happy as everyone who spent their hard earned money for an amazing vacation. Very disappointed in my overall Carnival experience and will try other cruise lines again in the future. Thanks!

We love cruises. We have sailed on Carnival three times now and the only complaint we ever had was the hotness of our room on our last cruise. You really do not need to leave the ship because the ship has everything you would want for a vacation. You have a variety of pools, places to eat, shopping, entertainment, dancing, different clubs. I recommend that everyone experience at least one cruise in their lifetime.
