Fifteen family members sailed on the RC Liberty of the Seas Western Caribbean Cruise for Christmas 2011. We are again impressed with the excellent service and value we received. We all agreed that heaven must look a lot like a trip with RC. Our family included three couples and our "kids" ages 18 to 30. Every single member of the group said it was the best vacation they'd ever had and couldn't even suggest something that RC could have improved upon. This included some members who travel the whole world for their jobs.
Our rooms were on deck seven. We had three adjoining balcony cabins (7224,7226,7228)for the Moms and Dads and put the "kids" across the hall in 5 interior cabins. This location was great. We were near the stairs and elevators, yet we never once heard any noise from passengers once inside the cabins. Every cabin was spacious, spotless and attended by the same steward who learned our names and took excellent care of all of us. We discovered that the balcony cabins were well worth the extra expense and made the trip much more romantic and relaxing. The glass privacy panels between the cabins opened when we wanted to connect with the others, which was great fun.
The Christmas holiday timing of this cruise is extra special. The passengers included mostly families, like ours, so the age range was greater than on cruises at other times. We took a cruise on Princess a few years ago and found that there were many more older couples, very nice, but too often irritable about very small things. In contrast, the holiday cruises on RC are filled with joyful energy.
7224, 7226, 7228 Balcony rooms - Beautiful, perfect in every way.
Five rooms across the hall from those - also perfect!
We loved the balcony rooms with the glass dividers that opened. We had several family get togethers there. There were 15 of us and it was a perfect arrangement. No problems what-so-ever, only praise!
