Carnival Liberty Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Excursion not what advertised, cheap lunch and rocky beach. Forced dinner arrangement. First time on a cruise so expectations were bit high. Overall, it was enjoyable.

It was a awesome cruise from the time we step on the Liberty.....

I'm already preparing for another cruise to go on.  This next one must be longer because we had such fun..

Great ship. A delay in releasing us after muster with no explanation why it took 20 minutes.  Shows were great. Love the Serenity area. Seafood Shack was really good.  Cruise Director and staff were amazing. I would cruise on her again.   Loved our excursion to Atlantis.  

Our cruise was very nice weather perfect room very nice. Staff were good. Dinner in the the silver dinning area was very good and the staff exceptional Christopher and ASEP were wonderfully attentive. The manager Isop very friendly answered all question and discussed the operation, food and types of restaurants with recommendations. One problem in the beginning of the trip you have to go to your station and learn if an emergency happens. The problem after a few minutes we were shown how to put the vest on and where to come in an emergency. After this was complete all the people stood around for another 20 minutes and no one explained why we were waiting. frustrating and a simple fix to inform the guests. 

My favorite part was the violin player. The food, the overall entertainment and the cleanliness needs to be improved! I feel the level of the experience has definitely gone downhill over the years. I would not recommend Carnival to others.

The staff aboard this ship was amazing! Donkey was very engaging the whole trip and enjoyed participating in events! WE LOVED THE AMERICAS ROCK CONCERT!! The debarktation and embarking process were very smooth. There was always something for us to do! My favorite part was the Very Hairy Man competition and the dance party afterwards! 

This was my 4th cruise  (3rd with Carnival). My first carnival cruise was in 2008, the next 2012 & the last 2017. I could tell a big difference with the service & quality of the food declining with each cruise.  I feel lIke carnival charges less up front but with all the extra charges for every ltitle thing that it is actually more expensive than the Norwegian cruise that I took in 2015 that included so much more. The only thing that I liked better was that they played movies on the big screen every night, which gave us something that wasn't overly crowded to go or some cheesy dance performance. If you want a vacation that you can relax & sleep in your room, this vacation is for you. 

We found the Liberty a well maintained ship. The balcony state room was spacious and well laid out. Members of the crew we met were polite, knowledgeable and helpful. The one link needed to make everything perfect was the food. Actually we found the buffet better than the dining room. We did not expect a gourmet restaurant . However we did expect better than what we had. The prepartion left us disappointed. Other than this problem we did enjoy ourselves.

The comedians are always great but this cruise their schedule conflicted with late dinner seating.  It was a choice between eating in the dining room or seeing the comedians and eating buffet.  

There was no late night dessert buffet, as there has always been one on previously cruises.  They did this buffet while the ship was in port at Freeport so if you had an excursion you missed it.  

The cabin stewards were not up to par.  We heard a lot of complaints from other cruisers that there stewards were not leaving the items that needed to be.  We had the same problem and our cabin steward was not creative with the towel animals.  He only did the basics.

The rest of the crew was top notch!  Bartenders, servers

Not a bad 4 night get away but not the best Carnival cruise we have taken.  If this was our first cruise it would have seemed good but because it was not our first we knew what touches were missing.

Very relaxing 20 th anniversary cruise. Everyone was awesome. Guys burgers BBQ and sushi was delicious. Nassau had lots to offer with shopping and attractions. Freeport was a disappointment. Although Tano beach was beautiful, I felt we were given incorrect information that swayed us to go to this particular beach. We later found out that it would have been cheaper to go to the resort beach. Donkey the cruise director was the most awesome cruise director we have experienced and we have been on at least 13 cruises. Overall a fantastic vacation !!!

The ship was easy to navigate; the staff was knowledgeable, caring and went out of their way to meet our every need.  My husband is disabled and everyone went out of their way to make sure that he has comfortable, taken care of and enjoyed the cruise.  Our room steward (James) was excellent, and he made sure our room was always clean and comfortable.  The wait-staff in the dining room (Imade and his helpers) saw to our every need.  The food was excellent, appetizing and served hot and on-time.  The bar area staff made sure we had everything we wanted.  The buffet food was very good, well prepared and hot.  This cruise provided us with a needed get-away, and it was everything we wanted or needed.  Looking forward to another cruise.

The service was great!  Everyone was very professional and attention to detail.   The only thing I feel need to be change; do not ask your passengers what time they would like to board the ship...if you going to have them to sit and wait for an hour.

Big let down. Nothing interesting on the entertainment. It was an off week for the ship. Was ran around when we asked for places to be. Sent us several times on wild goose chases. Cheap Cruises . Com mislead me on $50 credit I did not receive on ship. Also was told that my gratuities were already paid not to be concerned.  Well I paid them on the ship. Not at all what I was told. My daughter , nephew and two friends were sailing as I covered the cost.  And it got costly too. But it's a right. I first will check out who books my ship!! Thanks for charging me outrageous price for such cheap Cruise....

 My favorite part of the cruise was everything. I enjoyed being able to eat 24/7. Nothing really needed improvement except for everything having to cost. I don't remember ever having to pay for room service on other cruises I've been on especially with Carnival, but overall, it was great!

Previous Carnival Cruise was great and we talked our friends into going with us on this one. Ship was in need of a lot of cosmetic repair. Painted over rust, Deck for shuffleboard useless. Food and service not up to last cruise standards. Seemed like less supervised management of staff less noticed than prior cruise. It made a bad impression on our friends after we convinced them to go. Big difference in all aspects from the Valor to the Liberty.

I thought everything was great. Staff needed to know when to tell guess what can be paid with cash and what can't be paid with cash. This was my first cruise. They all need to be on the same agenda because we was told one thing by one staff member then another will tell us something different. We missed the Captain photo because staff didn't know that we could take pictures with the captain. Purchasing the pictures we took was a too much. So not organized at all.  I will book another cruise with Carnival Liberty again for sure. I had a nice time even though these little things was not good.

This cruise was an amazing experience for me and my Boyfriend. To be my first cruise, it was such an enjoyable time. With a lot of activities to do . The rooms were nice and clear, even the towel animals were a great touch.  However, the only thing I did not like, was the fact about the drink packages. Where if one person in the cabin buys a drink package, the other person has to also buy this package.

I enjoyed a fabulous time dining with strangers, dancing, singing, trivia etc., etc., etc.  The cruise staff was superb -- YES, ALL OF THEM.  They were worthy of my additional tip.  Atlantis was beautiful but overpriced (watcha gonna do).  Freeport was gorgeous.  We did the Dolphin Encounter... excellent price and well worth my time.  Everyone is our group of about 40 people received quality time with the dolphins and a kiss.  Freeport also offered parasailing, rides on the banana boat and jet ski rental.  Unfortunately, you're not there long enough to enjoy everything so choose wisely.  Last year I flew to Honolulu and took Hawaiian cruise and had a wonderful time also.  This was a more lively crowd.

It's been about 5 years since I last cruised, I've been on about 7 cruises.  I have to say i was truly disappointed.  The service was not good at all, I never even met my room Stuart.Our room didn't get cleaned until after 8pm. The food in the dinning room was terrible. There use to be a time that steak was basic option and you got surf & turf on formal night these were options with a price tag.  This was not in the specialty dinning room either. The last night i chose to eat on the lido deck but to my surprise it was basically the same thing they had for lunch.  Breakfast, I couldn't believe they were rationing out bacon!  Has it really come to that? The pizza was dry and not good. The only good thing about the food was Guy Fieri Burgers that they served on the Lido deck everyday.  Best burgers ever!!!!  I think that because the gratuity is already included there's no reason to work for a tip. I love cruising but this cruise was a big disappointment wont be back on the Liberty anytime soon

I would recommend this cruise if you're looking for a cheap, fun, and quick vacation. Watch all of the shows! If you drink soda, carry on a 12 pack so you don't waste money on the ship. I ordered a 12 pack of water on the carnival website,  since you're not aloud to bring bottled water onto the ship. I wish we would have went to two islands instead of one.
