We sailed on the Liberty 5/11/13-5/18/13 out of Miami. Checked in at the airport which was very fast, got our sign and sail cards right there. Took a bus to the port, arrived around 10:30 am. We did not have FTTF but we were on the ship before noon. Our room was ready by 1.
We were on the Lido deck, 9288 balcony. Honestly, never heard outside noise and loved being right near the pools, bars and buffets on deck. Our room steward was Ronaldo and he was very hard working and very sweet. I commented one night that he never stops working and he said "I wake up happy every day here. I take time off in June" Always smiling, met every request like we were his only guests.
Guy's burgers were fantastic. I hear people complain about the buffets not being warm or long lines but we never encountered that. We only ate in the dining room twice on the 2 elegant nights and service was fast, polite and food was good. Ate at the steakhouse once, tremendous value for the $35.
Loved it, will always book as close to this location as possible. Quiet even though it was 3 rooms away from Lido deck. We never heard any noise in our room. I strongly suggest bringing a bungee and sleeping with the balcony door open- it was heaven!
