Horrible by kmstringari

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Carnival Freedom / Destination: Caribbean - Western

Very frustrating not at all relaxing. We almost missed one of our excursions do to wrong instructions on our paperwork. The buffet food was Horrible and the fish in the main dining room was undercooked. They need to keep Guys Burgers and the pizza place open a lot longer..

Not what I expected! by thardnett

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (young children)
Ship: Carnival Freedom / Destination: Caribbean - Western

This ship is old. You were able to hear every move someone made. They were always repairing something on the ship. Food in the lido deck seem to always be closed so early. Some of the staff seem to have the I am worked too much attitude. My kids love the pizza but they were very slow and did t seem to like when you asked for more than 2 slices. However Ms. Emma energy was awesome. She kept the fun going. I have no idea how she had that much energy but her smile and joy made the trip fun and enjoyable.

Family Caribbean Cruise by ccwell440

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Carnival Freedom / Destination: Caribbean - Western

Great ship. Can't tell that it had been refurbished. Great crew. Loved cabin 9200 because of the floor to ceiling views and extra room for our family. King size sofabed, two chairs, and two twin beds added additional room for family and friends that visited to enjoy the view at sunset.

Ship: Carnival Freedom / Destination: Caribbean - Western

During my cruise I tipped my dinners and my room service so I was taken back when I was charged the gratuity per person. I now know better in the future as I will no add additional tips if I choose to take another cruise.

Wonderful Family Memories at Sea by msjoys

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (young children)
Ship: Carnival Freedom / Destination: Caribbean - Western

This cruise was a family cruise for my mother's 70th birthday. She truly enjoyed the week of family and we all enjoyed what ended up being a great vacation. I was traveling with my 13 year old daughter and 7 month old son, so I was a little nervous about traveling with an infant. But everyone did everything they could to make it a great experience. Antonio, our steward, was always very accommodating in making sure we had everything we needed. Kris Ann always greeted us with a smile when we entered the dining room and keep my son laughing whenever he saw her. And Rafael ensue that every dining experience was amazing... helping us navigate children's menus for the kids and just simply making things easy so I could enjoy the meals. I have cruised other cruise lines in the past, but Carnival is my favorite. Their people make all the difference!!!! Everyone is so nice and so helpful. You truly feel like you are getting away from it all. The disembarkation process was different from my last cruise, but even it was easy. I mean when you have that many people, you expect to wait. But they kept things are orderly and organized as possible. Thank you for making my mother's birthday a very memorable one! I can't wait for my next Carnival Cruise.

Fabulous first cruise by 88gojr88

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Carnival Freedom / Destination: Caribbean - Western

We had a fabulous time. No complaints. Only thing I would say is that we had to purchase Tylenol and the price was outrageous. $12.00 for a small 24 tablet bottle is crazy. But we had to have it as my son had a bad headache.

Happy with our first cruise by bhamilton8820

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Carnival Freedom / Destination: Caribbean - Western

We enjoyed our first cruise. Although I wish the pools were larger or at least a pool for kids to actually get to swim and play in - these seemed to ALL be adult only pools with only people standing in them. Food was good and a large variety of things to eat. Our cabin was always very clean. Nightly shows were great with amazing singers and dancers!!

Fun Freedom Cruise by browneyeschanda

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Carnival Freedom / Destination: Caribbean - Western

I was nervous booking through instead of through the cruise line, but there was really no need. It went very very smoothly. No problems getting our onboard credits, and we got a fantastic room. I don’t think I’d change anything about our room location. We had such a great time.

Great service by tvujoe

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (young children)
Ship: Carnival Freedom / Destination: Caribbean - Western

The service are so great but some foods are so terrible especially on fresh fruit. You need to serve more different kind of fruits such as strawberry, blueberry. grape...
