Freedom of the Seas Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Overall had a great time. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaa... there you go!!!

I traveled with 5 other passengers and we all had a great time.

Extremely disappointed...not at all what I expected from Royal and seriously considering NEVER choosing this cruise line again

Great line, always enjoy my adventures.... Highly recommend RC

Good itinerary but not fond of this ship. We love the oasis class ships. We will book again with Royal Caribbean but back to the oasis class ships.

The experience we have had was certainly great, I wish to be back again soon.

Had a great time on this cruise. the staff is outstanding and very helpful. The ship is comfortable and had great entertainment. I thought the extras offered were overpriced, like wi-fi, beverage packages and specialty dining.

Overall we had an excellent time. We are an older couple and not interested in rock climbing or riding the waves. I believe the Freedom offers sufficient attractions and comforts to satisfy a diverse group of customers.

Exelent! The service was good! The entertainment is not really good but the people that making the activities is really entertaining.

Very enjoyable - enjoyed the ship time along with the shore time!!!

We are loyal Royal Caribbean cruisers after having gone on Norwegian and Princess cruises before. The casual vibe of the ship is what we want and rarely do we dress up for formal nights - we get enough of that at work. The food is very good - though I wish they had a bigger offering of identified gluten free desserts or breakfast pastries - the ports on this cruise are outstanding, and the only thing we missed this time was a stop at Bonaire - possibly our favorite port so far of any cruise, and available on other sailings on this ship. We typically don't do ship excursions and prefer to grab a taxi to beaches or points of interest. Walking and shopping in Willemstad is wonderful. There are always local drivers anxious to take you somewhere when you dock. We never felt unsafe in any port. Love this itinerary!

Don't recommend, as we know cruising keeps getting worse but this one was one of the worse in the last ten years. No more Royal Caribbean for me I'll give Celebrity a try, I know they are part of Royal Caribbean I just feel I need to be fair.

Always an amazing vacation experience with Royal Caribbean! All of the food was delicious, the service was personable & extremely accommodating, the ports of call were heavenly, the entertainment was top quality & diverse. You could be as active or relaxed as you wished.

Nice ship, the party starter for the pool parties could have been better.

Excellent vacation overall. Good value for the money

We enjoyed this cruise. We basically picked the cruise by the ports they were stopping at.

Ship is Not handicap friendly, buttons don’t work , doors don’t open , raised door sill into bathroom, there was no seat in shower despite written request with reservations & request verification before sailing ( service desk said “ yes yes yes “ )still had to contact housekeeping before one was found & brought to room , large shower open on 2 sides shower curtain only covers 1 side , so no mater how you work it 1/2 of bathroom drenched Entire ship is a trip hazard , multiple floor elevation changes with no variation in coloring as warning boarding ship at EVERY port was humiliating, I have a right below knee amputation and the metal hardware sets off alarms , I understand the FULL strip & pat down the first couple of times ..... but EVERY TIME ? 2 & 3 times a day ? I got more action from the security lady then I did from my husband Dining room : seating is So Packed & tight there is little room to navigate, constant bump & bang from waitstaff & next table Food so-so , English truffle , advertised as “ sponge cake marinated in sherry” was JELLO , if I wanted jello I would go to buffet. Waitstaff was wonderful, friendly.. to bad food did not love up to the waitstaff THE KEY :CHOPS on embarkation day was wonderful, but that was the only thing about “ THE KEY “ that worked , advanced easy access for boarding was a joke , there was a mass surge of humanity and all Handicap, mobility challenged or wheel chair cruisers were trampled , internet sucked , reserved hours for attractions were seldom, only one attraction a day ,always at inconvenient times, who wants to climb rock wall from 9-10 PM. Room 1814 was a beautiful panoramic ocean view , Handicapped accessible room , AC was horrible, cooler out on deck then in room , drapes had to be keep closed during the day or the room became unbearable . Closed at night or light effected the Bridge , There was SO much movement on deck 12 during sea days that I experienced my first bought of sea sickness ( born & raised on an island & on boats big & small ) Evening movies on big screen : current movies , mission impossible, ant man , crazy Asians .....but they started at 6 so anyone with early diner reservations only saw the end of them , no blankets, popcorn..... no “ movie under the stars “ Ports were great , did ship excursions in Bonaire & St Martian , (make your reservations online well in advance , most excursions were full at boarding ) no consistency with towels for excursions, on ship , off ship ...... get yours by the pool and if attendant asks you tell him your going to use them on board 24 hour coffee shop doesn’t start making coffee until 6:30 , pastries are not made fresh but are frozen , Ice coffee is 2 punches on card , if you have a reusable straw bring it with you as paper ones on board collapse quickly

I felt that we got exactly what we paid for. The staff were pleasant although there was some discontent obvious. NEED TO BE MORE AWARE OF PROPER HEALTH PRECAUTIONS.

Our first cruise on Royal Caribbean, all our previous cruises (5) had been on Celebrity. I thought the Freedom of the Seas compared well with our previous Celebrity experiences, and and I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food.

This was my 11 th cruise and my 6th cruise with Royal Caribbean. It was one of my very best cruise experiences. Lovely ship. Had the most awesome weather 80s and sunny for a whole week. Great ports of call. I did not have a bad meal the whole trip. Windjammer(the buffet restaurant) has really improved the quality and selection of food. The mexican specialty restaurant was worth the extra $25 per person. I will definitely sail with Royal Caribbean again.
