Fun in the Sun by deb214611686

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Carnival Freedom

Had fun on our cruise with friends. My husband and I went on a couple excursions but mainly stayed on the ship and relaxed. Freedom had spaces for quiet relaxation and places for activities.

Great family cruise with some room for improvement by Familycruiser99

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Carnival Freedom

This was a good cruise with our families however many areas noted for improvement. Really disappointed in the food in the MDR, the overall experience at Princess Cays and the overall cleanliness onboard. The ship itself is outdated as are the rooms (more so bathrooms, likely where the constant smell of old urine comes from). Having cruised several times before we had high hopes for the food and we’re left with much to be desired. The wait staff in the MDR were wonderful and gave us a great experience however the food was just rather blah and tasteless.

Very Disappointing! Not enough to do on the ship if you did not drink or gamble! by adriannedenmark

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

At this point I will not travel on Carnival again. Like I was said, if you did not gamble or drink, you were very bored on the ship. Pickleball was advertised and no one showed up and there was not a pickleball court (it was a volleyball court with volleyball net). The service of the staff and the food was wonderful, no complaints there.

Cruising on FREEDOM by drvalins

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

Overall a relaxing cruise. The crew and staff were friendly, informative and outstanding in service. Being a smaller ship, restricted movement and areas to walk. If the evening meal was much better, I could have considered rating the Freedom with 5 stars. The evening meal (dinner) in the main dining room must be improved.

Don't recommend by hailey9718

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

It was a major letdown. There wasn't much to do on board, the food was bad, they penny and dimed us, added on $80 per person at the end of the cruise in gratuities, and wouldn't compensate us any when they gave my husband food poisoning, which caused us to miss a day going out to Nassau, the first island we stopped at. So much for a relaxing and enjoyable honeymoon!

Had a great time by monicaluker16

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

We enjoyed the ports and of course the dining but the entertainment on board was a little lacking for a family with a toddler. Most of the entertainment we would have enjoyed was at the comedy club but it had age restrictions or at the piano bar which its a bar. We spent a lot of our time onboard walking around because there just wasn't anything we could do with our toddler.

First cruise since COVID, things have changed by cruiseintender

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

Had a fun experience, but it's not like it used to be pre-pandemic. Felt like staff was stretched too thin to provide the quality of service as before. Meals in dining room were small portions, lower quality food items. Never felt pampered or special during cruise.

Ports Great, ship not so much by marlatravis

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

If this was my first cruise i would never want to cruise again. However, I understand things happen. Lesson learned is i would always check on the age and size of the ship. I get what i paid for. I chose this cruise for the ports as they were ports i had never been to. I then chose dates and price. This fit all three of my categories. If I were to do it again, I would look for a newer and larger ship so it would not seem as crowded and chaotic.

Overall, my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this cruise as we celebrated our 1 year wedding anniversary. We had perfect weather and seas the entire trip and we couldn't have asked for more.

Nice Family Getaway by Familyw2teens

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

This was my second cruise, my families 1st. It was a good vacation. I wish the ports of call days weren’t back to back. It would have been nice to have a day at sea break. Kids are older and loved the circle c activities. Food was good and the carnival app was really helpful.
