Freedom of the Seas Cruise Reviews - Reviews

This cruise met my expectations for a larger boat with lots of people. It was more difficult than I am accustomed to to find a quiet space with access to fresh air. Food was good, service was excellent. I was very disappointed with my experience getting on and off the ship and that will be a deciding factor for my next cruise.

Nice time, would have enjoyed it more if the weather would have been better. We had some rough waters & ship was rocky. Had trouble walking in hallway to my room. The swaying really bothered me.

The shows and food are what stuck out for me as the negatives. Except the comedy show that was great

my first cruise experience. I enjoyed my trip and will be cruising more in the future

Overall an awesome and memorable cruise for us. The staff was very friendly and the cabins were nice and clean.

Received outstanding service. Staff went above and beyond.

This vacation was perfection from start to finish. Very pleased.

Very laid back,amazing experience everyone was friendly. My only thing I wish was better is the casino gave more comps or points, for playing table games

This cruise was nice for a quick getaway with your friends or family. Its great if you need to decompress. I had a great time.

We really enjoyed our Royal Caribbean cruise on Freedom of the Seas. Being that this was our first cruise, I'd like to try other ships, but I'd definitely sail with Royal Caribbean again.

Cruise was excellent. Some improvements are needed for younger teens, and Nassau is a complete waste of a day. But the main dining and shows were great

This was our first cruise and we absolutely loved it! We can't wait to go on another one! It was perfect for a family with older children. It gave us a chance to do things together as a family during the day, have a nice dinner together, and then the kids could go off in the evening with friends they'd met and have some social time.

It was really awesome, I really appreciated the Royal Caribbean team member specially our cook Mr. Imad and his teams. overall everything was awesome....... Nothing I saw to questionable point.

We have sailed on RC several times and have always had pretty good experiences. This one, no. Lack of activities, staff just did care, slow service, etc.

We absolutely loved our cruise. The Freedom of the Seas is beautiful! The weather was great all week.

This was our first time with Royal Caribbean and it will not be our last. Great customer service and cleanliness, which we find important. Loved having a balcony room, we spent a great deal of time sitting on the balcony early in the morning and in the evening.

Overall, my cruise experience was excellent. I would like to be included more recreational activities for seniors.

The cruise was great, the weather was wonderful, wish you were there 🌞

This was our first cruise. I went with my 13 year old daughter. Unfortunately, the first night, we ate in the dining room. She had the Caesar Salad, Steak and Potato and Boston Cream Pie. I was fine, I had a different meal, but three hours later she woke up with food poisoning. I had brought covid tests with me just to be on the safe side, and it wasn't that. I never got sick, just her, with a low grade fever and threw up 11 times. Thought we would be safe by avoiding the buffet but I guess not :(. Because of this, she threw up the whole morning of Coco Cay and we could not visit this port. She was so excited, it was our first cruise and I had purchased the water park tickets(not cheap!!) but we missed out. We missed out on Taste of Royal the next day because she couldn't eat, and they didn't refund me when I canceled. Understandable I guess, but basically everything I had planned went out the window except for Nassau on the last day. The cabin was really outdated, only two plug ins in the whole room, across the room from the bed, which really wasn't a big deal, but if you use your phone as a clock at night just keep in mind you can't charge your phone next to the bed. Fridge stated it was a "cooler" and not a fridge, so any leftover food we were afraid to keep in it, mainly because of the previous sickness lol. I ended up getting ice and a cooler bag, which for the price we paid for a Junior Suite, seems kind of crazy. Arcade had less than half of the games working, so just keep in mind it is small and not much to play there. I feel stupid now, but I actually bought $100 worth of credits so that we could have a great time, but not much was working, and I don't think we went through half of them. Giovanni's was EXCELLENT and one of the best things about the cruise. Now I wish I would have bought the package for the specialty restaurants so that she didn't get sick maybe. Keep in mind, if you have younger teens(she's 13) at certain times it may be hard to go to the pool. They have a kiddie type area for young young kids, and the main pool, and a 16+ pool. When we went to the main pool on the third day, they were having a hot body contest for guys and it really wasn't appropriate for a 13 year old, so we asked the staff if we could go to the quieter 16+ area and got a firm no, so we had to leave and come back later in the afternoon after it had calmed down. I know I may sound like a Debbie Downer and I just hate that we weren't able to do anything on this cruise. I probably wouldn't go on another one based on the thousands of dollars spent to just sit in a room, or maybe would go with some girlfriends. I don't know. Bad experience....

Per my experience, overall, I did not like it and I cant say that I will cruise any again any time soon. They need more variety of activities and more should be included on the cruise with the price you are spending to cruise.
