Liberty of the Seas Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Great family trip with plenty of activities if you have kids!

We had a fantastic cruise! I really don’t think we have ever been on a bad one (& hope it never happens!) 🤣🛳😎

This was our second time doing this cruise as a family, we fell in love with the entire experience the first time, and this second time we’re sure that we’re absolutely hooked and will be making royal Caribbean a regular tradition! The entire ships crew made our vacation that much more special! We LOVE liberty of the seas, can’t wait to go on our 3rd cruise!

This was our first RC cruise. We have done Carnival several times, so we did not know what to expect. This cruise blew us away so much, we will be booking on an Oasis-class ship next! RC Liberty of the Seas did not disappoint! Here's a short review... Boarding we were unsure of, but Galveston has it together. We checked bags for the first time ever around 10:45-11am. They ended up by our room before we went to the safety briefing, it was nice to be all put away before that started. The check-in was a breeze, you get your card, go upstairs, a guy gave us a boarding card 8, then another gentleman asked what I had, he gave me a group 6 card. When they started calling groups it was so quiet. No rushing, no lines, it was so pleasant! We are used to the mad rush with Carnival, this was a wow so nice surprise. Once inside, we were again pretty excited. The Promenade is amazing. You feel like you are sitting in a little town. I don't think I can sail RC on a smaller ship without it. We sat out every evening at the Hoof and Claw enjoying the scenery with a drink. The water slides, Flow Rider, and adult pool were enjoyed almost daily. In the last 2 days we rode slides each morning as long as we could walk up those stairs. Go early when they open at 9 am for no lines! The only complaint was there was always a line for Flow Rider and the same 5 guys who surf rode it all day every day. It would be nice to have levels throughout the day besides just standing or boogie boarding. I'm sure the ships with 2 it probably evens out some. Food was so so and not what we expected. While no meal was bad (except a questionable burger at the buffet), they seemed to not understand when we special ordered, it was for a reason. Gluten-free is on my file, they always acknowledged this, great. But they'd then bring out husband's food, and I would wait 10 minutes, once for a burger with no bun, because he said they were waiting on fries after I said no fries. We did have 2 nights with great waiters that got it right, so again, not just to complain about. The guac and apps at Sabor are amazing. The food is okay. We probably will do it again for lunch. Giovanni's was mediocre at best. We were disappointed to get several overdone steaks we ordered medium-rare. Chops was great. However, they really need to move it. Listening to the kids club skee ball at dinner on a formal night is not a romantic dinner. Overall we had a blast. Found a favorite bartender, Lancelot, from Jamaica, at the Hoof and Claw. Go say hi if you are on board soon. He is leaving in 3 months on vacation. He was the sweetest, nice to talk to, and made amazing drinks! Go see In the Air! It is hands down, the best show on the ship! The comedian we went to was dreadful. People were leaving, we almost got up to leave as well. It was just not funny and he had to keep telling people it was okay to laugh. On a final note, our room attendant, Franchezca, Fran, also from Jamaica is sooooo sweet. I enjoyed chatting with her and even though we never asked, she cleaned twice a day. Sneaky after we would leave for dinner too. I left her a note with a tip on the last night on the monkey she made us. She went out of her way on our departure today to come by, thank us, and give me a hug to let us know how much that meant to her. I am not saying you have to rip anyone but leave them a note saying how much you appreciate them. They really do care and she was so happy to hear we enjoyed and appreciated her!

Took my mom on her first cruise. She loved it. Everyone was friendly, helpful, and always smiling.

Enjoyed the cruise it was very relaxing. Staff was always friendly & helpful. We requested table 245 with Cany & Darrell every night who gave us wonderful service. We had cabin 7595 & 7597 Promenade cabins. Otto was our cabin attendant who is the best!

Wonderful cruise with the family, second time on liberty of the seas

Everyone that works on this line was friendly, happy, enjoyable to be around. All had smiles on their faces. Was pleased to help you and would go out of their way to do so

Beautiful Ship, Beautiful Itinerary and amazing staff and port of calls with the liberty of the seas!

We loved our time on the Liberty. The ship size is just right with plenty to do and we never felt crowded.

Really enjoyed the ship and our room. Even though it rained 6 of 7 days did not bother us with plenty of inside activities. Would do the same cruise again if cheap. Prefer cruises that go out of Florida simply because of distance between airport in Houston and cruise terminal in Galveston.

Well I didn’t enjoy it as much as I would like! Rough waters a couple of nights caused me to miss some good shows and all the dance floors were small! Excursion wasn’t great and overpriced!

The staff on Liberty were amazing, and made sure everything was close to perfect. The food was deliciously prepared and nicely presented. The shows were professional and entertaining.

Had a good time with family group of 19 of all ages. There was something for everyone.

Wifi doesn't work on balcony. Splotchy in cabin. Waste of money.

Overall it was wonderful! I would definitely cruise on Royal Caribbean again!! Maybe try out a different ship/different itinerary... but I’d also be fine redoing this one!!

My son had a medical emergency and I had to fly home from Cozumel while my husband stayed on the ship. The Royal Caribbean staff were so incredibly helpful in facilitating my departure. They released me to a port official that walked me through immigration and customs and drove me to the airport. It was a very difficult day and Royal Caribbean did an outstanding job of making things go smoothly for me.

this was my husband first cruise and we had such a good time. Very relaxing with plenty to do if you wanted to do something.

This was the first of our B2B. I did the cupcake decorating class and it was very well done. The chef leading it was very very friendly and a great teacher!

Great cruise experience for first time cruise! Will go again!
