Review summary

My family and I loved our cruise on Freedom of the Seas. The crew was great, the cabin was larger than expected (room 7676), especially when you include the balcony. There were plenty of things to do on the ship - pools, bars, restaurants, shows, etc. My children (3 and 9) enjoyed the kid's programs. You won't be disappointed.

The balcony is a great upgrade - nice to be able to sit and enjoy the fresh air. The cabin was a decent size - it's not the presidential suite, but it's comfortable.

Not a fair review because we didn't hit any beaches - cab rides were $20 per person. Wasn't going to spend $80 one-way to go to a beach 10 minutes away.

How busy was the kids program? Did they seem really good with the kids? Taking a 8 month old and a 2 year old and I'm very nervous about leaving them in their care.
