Review summary

This was my first cruise, and I can't wait to go back. I'm hooked on the cruise life. The ship was fun. The islands were gorgeous. The weather was warm. The water was the most amazing color of blue I've ever seen. Food was delicious. Staff was incredible. Watch out for wet places on the decks.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Embarkation was fairly smooth for us. One note, I did have a small travel iron confiscated. I missed it on the list of items we can't bring.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Oh, the food! So much food! Deliciously tempting food! I ate French toast for breakfast one morning - 3 times! Guys Burgers was great. I was with a large group, and we met in the Silver dining hall each night. All of my dinners were amazing.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
We found things to do. I enjoy watching the sunrise and an early breakfast. We played BINGO, played in the Casino, and watched a few shows. I think 80s Music Trivia was my fave!

No kids

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Staff was always happy to help and quite friendly. I almost felt neglected when we returned home because nobody was putting towel animals on my bed daily! LOL

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Some floors could not be reached by elevator.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
This cabin was great. It was spacious for 2 people. Lots of room in closet. We hung clothes and used drawers for personal items. Outlet is by mirror at vanity. Not one near the bed. Balcony had wonderful views. We could smell people smoking on a balcony. We could hear people in cabin beside us, but they were not loud. We didn't stay in cabin much because we were busy enjoying the ship. The Liberty is lots of fun anytime of the day or night!

Ship tip

Read the lists of items suggested, allowed, and not allowed. I had to throw away a travel iron to get on ship. It was my first cruise, and I didn't realize they weren't allowed. Thankfully, my friend brought non-drowsy motion sickness meds. I brought the drowsy kind. She also knew that she could bring a case of soda/water on that cruise.

Ports of call

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Lots of people leaving at the same time. It was crowded but had good flow. Just be patient for an elevator. Our shuttle service was not there when we got off the ship and our party was slip going back.
