Horrible Cruise from start to finish!!!

This cruise from start to finish was the worst experience I’ve ever experienced! - over crowded pools and hot tubs. Was not a safe situation! Especially in the hot tubs. Never went in even once! - long lines for food! Much of it was over cooked! - Customer service line was constantly long, no matter what times of day. - Yes this was the cruise that caught fire!!! Deck 9 was a mess, ...

We went on a cruise to the Dominican Republic and Grand Turk, and one of the best experiences was the crew, like they go above and beyond to the fullest extent to make sure I had the time of my life, there was 3,900 passengers aboard and they still remembered our names, and always asked how we was doing, if they can get us anything, I mean hands down the crew was spectacular, so hats off to ...

The Cruise was fun. The weather causing excursions to be cancelled was disappointing. We were refunded and understand the weather was not Carnivals fault but seeing in Turks there was just a drizzle we couldn’t understand and never received an explanation for why our excursion was cancelled or why we were just notified when we got to the excursion point leaving no chance to schedule something new. ...

My wife chose this cruise for her 50th birthday. It was fun and we missed half moon cay due too the weather and that was a bummer so we spent more time in Grand Turk which was fun. They had a lot of shows and various activities onboard for adults and small children but on the down side there wasn't much for teenagers to do and the Internet was blotchy and the whole ships cruiser's had motion ...

Embarkation went smoothly and overall we had a good time. Muster call has definitely improved since you just check in at your designated station after boarding the ship. We booked an interior room which was actually more spacious than I have experienced on other ships. Our cabin was clean and my only complaint was the lack of electrical outlets as we only had one located in the vanity area and ...

Within moment of stepping onto this ship we knew we had made a mistake booking this cruise. As we were walking to our muster station we walked past the main elevators and were hit with a sewage smell that we would smell many more times in many areas of the ship. The worst of that smell came at the serenity bar. I was truly scared to drink my drink because it made we worry about the sanitation in ...

We went on the last Freedom cruise before her dry dock in Barcelona to get her fins fixed. We had a great cruise. The boat is a bit older, very similar to the Liberty (almost identical) but very easy to navigate, in great shape, great staff and a clean ship. The atrium always had good music and events. The musicians were excellent with a great selection of music. The cruise director, Andy, was my ...

Just got off 5 night cruise on Carnival Freedom to the Bahamas, and a lot has changed since we went on the Freedom last year. We loved it so much last year we went again, but the food and service were horrible this time. Had a balcony room again but this time the light didn't work and we were told that it couldn't be fixed, so we opened the curtains for some light out there at ...

Freedom cruise from 8/5 - 8/10 We just got home from our first ever Carnival cruise and it will also be our last.  We had the most miserable trip of our lives. This was our 14 year old sons first cruise and it was a total waste of our money. We paid for priority boarding and got our luggage long after people who did not have priority. We paid for the soda package for our son but would have ...

All the services that we received was awesome from the cooks, servers, housekeepers, and even the people that checked us in for the cruise. But I would like to thank four people who went above and beyond Maaressi, Vijay, Sahip, and Ketut these guys were amazing and hope to sail with them again. Next time i cruise I will ask if they are on my cruise ship. Great cruise and great people. Every ...
