Review summary

We chose this cruise because it was short and the grandkids had off from school. WE were a party of four adults and three children. Embarcation was organized and smooth. Once on board, we first stopped at our Muster Station and then went to our outside cabins. I noticed that our cabin had a balcony which was walled off! What a waste. We then grabbed a bite at the Windjammer. The food was okay. We then went to the Diamond Lounge for cocktails and "Hor D'oeuros. Dell, the cocktail Waiter was top notch. The Diamond Lounge Conciege was very good. We spent a large amount of time here. For dinners, we had the unlimited dining package and ate at Chops and Giovanni’s. The food was good. The appetizers and salads were outstanding. The entertainment was very good: the Ice Show, theMusical and the comics. My grandchildren loved the ship: The water slides, arcade, entertainment and the pizza. One of them wanted to live on the ship. The other one wanted to go to Sorrentos for his birthday. They really enjoyed Cococay. Our bedroom steward was excellent. The Disembarcation was very organized. The cruise was on the Royal Caribbean Freedom Of The Seas April 7-10 2023
