Wonderful Caribbean vacation for single parent with older teens! by gahalpin

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Freedom of the Seas

This was our best vacation ever! I would go on it again next week if I could. Overall the Freedom of the Seas was a very well-maintained ship with plenty to do for a single mom with 2 teenage boys (16 & 18). We felt safe at all times. Food/drinks, activities, and service were absolutely outstanding. Even on rainy days there were plenty of things to keep us occupied. Bring your family photo shoot clothes, there are many opportunities for beautiful, professional shots. Also bring magnetic hooks to increase storage in your stateroom (walls are metal). Would also recommend bringing both US and EU adapters if you have both, our US adapter was too large to plug into the US outlet but thankfully we were able to use the EU adapter/outlet. Also, bring extra cash for tips. The high-energy staff works long hours to keep everyone happy, they definitely earn it. This was one of the best vacations I've ever had!

Worth it cruise by matthewzetouna

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Freedom of the Seas / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

This cruise is a shorter one and there were less families which was great. It was more of an upscale crowd. Lots of boomers and married couples. Overall was nice. Pool area was annoying because the music was blaring but overall it was relaxing and the staff were wonderful.

3 night cruise by jupitershana

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Freedom of the Seas

Overall the cruise was amazing but way too short! I wish we had had at least one at sea day just so that we could have explored the ship more. A three night cruise just isn't quite enough. The food was okay, the main dining room was much better than the wind jammer. Service on the whole ship was impeccable.

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Freedom of the Seas / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

We loved Coco Cay. Like an all-inclusive resort but better. Freedom of the Seas is big and beautiful. Can't wait to do another Royal Caribbean cruise!

Surprise Family Getaway by RHG2

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Freedom of the Seas

We surprised our kids (didn't tell them until the morning of embarkation) with their first-ever cruise. We had a suite booked so all of us could fit comfortably, and it was a great experience for all of us. Freedom is a great ship -- perfect for families or couples or groups of friends traveling together. Looking forward to the next one!

Overall a solid cruise, would do another by sscherrie

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Freedom of the Seas

This was my first RC cruise but won't be my last. Things are different here than other cruise lines including more fees. Gratuity is not only charged per person per day but additionally for items such as "towel check in/towel check out" even though those are not advertised. We enjoyed the cruise overall. We missed the food when we left! That says a lot. There was no birthday greeting at check-in or anything special in the room. That was disappointing. Luggage fiasco at embarkation without a real apology or answer. We also had intermittent plumbing issues! 3.5/5 for these reasons.

Beautiful Bahamian Cruise by melpetsit

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Freedom of the Seas

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.

Surprised at how much I enjoyed it by sue3875271

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Freedom of the Seas

The ship was MUCH nicer than the only other cruise I have ever taken on a different cruise line. I would never have wanted to do another cruise after that first experience, but Royal Caribbean has given me a much better view of cruises. The staff is exceptional and the ship was easy to navigate although it could use far more elevators (we were with a mobility impaired person who simply couldn't use the stairs). We used the stairs exclusively because the elevators were packed with people and took forever and were HOT. Really that's the only thing I think could be improved upon. The rest was very enjoyable.
