Review summary

The Carnival Liberty was way too packed. You have to wait in a long line to get food and by the time the lines die down, they close the buffet. There's only 2 pools and they are not big at all. Very small. I think an Olympic size pool is crucial for a cruise that holds 3,000 people. September is the best time to go. Barely any kids.

Embarkation

3 out of 5

It wasn't bad because you do have to keep in mind that you are boarding a ship with 3,000 plus passengers and not just some plane with 250 passengers. It took us a total of a half hour from start to finish.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

The Hamburger Joint was awesome and so was breakfast at the main dining. I really can't complain about the food because overall, it was good. However, the deserts could have been better.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

We opted not to do any excursions since we did them on the Carnival last year. So with that said, we really enjoyed the onboard activities. I didn't realize how fun they were.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

The shows were great. Maybe not like broadway but more like a college show but worth seeing.
