Review summary

VERY UNHAPPY. WILL NOT TAKE ANOTHER CRUISE THANKS TO THIS ONE. THE FOOD WAS NOT GOOD AT ALL. THE CRUISE WAS VERY ROUGH. I WAS EXTREMELY SICK THE LAST TWO NIGHTS, CAME HOME SICK AND STILL SICK OVER A WEEK LATER.

Ship Quality

EASY TO GET LOST. YOU CAN'T WALK STRAIGHT ACROSS THE DECKS, YOU HAVE TO GO UP OR DOWN AND THEN BACK UP OR DOWN TO GET TO PLACES.

Your first mistake you choose the Walmart of the seas cruise line, second mistake you you sailed on an old outdated ship. Don’t let this experience turn you off from cruising, cruising is great. Do your research try another cruise line, and remember the saying you pay for what you get.

Prayerfully, you'll reconsider your position. Cruising is an amazing way to vacation. Thing is it's, all about the cruise line you chose and timing. When you cruise makes all the difference. Researching ship reviews is paramount. Consider all the variables.

Sorry this didn’t meet your expectations! As others have said, cruising may not be for you. With the variety of food offered, I am surprised nothing seemed edible. I hope you find another way to enjoy your vacations that fit your needs!

Rating the cruise by the weather? Not right

Definitely sounds like cruising is not for you. Lol No worries, lots of other vacation options out there. 🙂

As for getting around the ship, the going up or down thing is only on one floor, where the galley is located. That's the same on nearly every Carnival ship and most cruise lines. Kitchen in the middle and dining rooms on the ends.

1) Don't base all cruising on one incident of bad weather. Bad weather is not the fault of ANY cruise line. 2) Don't expect 5 star food on a 3 star budget cruise line. Carnival food is edible and quite often very food. The Steak House and Chef's Table experience are top notch. Book another cruise, perhaps on a longer cruise or Royal Caribbean or Norwegian.

The rough seas were not a direct reflection of the Liberty itself though. That happens in winter on a lot of ships. I hate you had a bad trip. Liberty is one of my favorites

Definitely sounds like cruising isn’t for. Most love it, but it’s not for everyone. Cruising in the winter can mean rougher seas, so it’s always important to have something for seasickness.
