Carnival Liberty Cruise Reviews for Singles to the Western Caribbean from Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades)

Ok, so many of the things that make a cruise perfect worked in our favor...great weather and fair seas, so the rest was just icing.... That said we went with the Liberty sailing out of Miami because it offered an additional port, Grand Cayman, at a lower price than the closer sailing out of Galveston. We had Southwest miles so airfare was not a factor. Call me crazy but we flew day of cruise ...

This was my first cruise, so I don't have anything to compare this to, but I did have some expectations. First let me say that the embarkation process went incredibly fast. When we first got to the port authority building in Ft. Lauderdale, and I saw all those people in line, I thought it would take hours. It didn't. I think we were on board the ship within 30 minutes of walking in the door of ...

My first impression upon seeing the Liberty was it was hugh and I am going to get lost.....a lot. We were really surprised when the travel agent had put my husband and I on the panorama deck. Previously we had been in the lower levels so this was really nice. Also we had a inside cabin. I thought I would miss a window since on the previous cruises we did oceanview.Actully liked there inside better ...

We left Ga and stayed in Ft Lauderdale prior to cruising. The Embassy Suites has been newly renovated and is beautiful. The pool is incredible with a waterfall and plenty of seating. You can see the ships from the outside porches at the end of the floors from 6 up. They are suites with an incredible spread put out for breakfast that is free. We boarded on 5-10 which was a nightmare. They had us ...

Embarkation: Arrived at the port at approximately 1100. We dropped our luggage with the baggage handlers who immediately loaded it into the containers to go on the ship. It was pretty busy and somewhat crowded inside the terminal, but since we were early and inside the terminal, there was no standing in the sun and baking. The only delay was when they stopped processing people for about 20 minutes ...

This was our first cruise. We usually go to All inclusive in Mexico, Cuba, Dominican Republic or go to Florida. This year we decided to trip a cruise. We booked through our local travel agent the Carnival Fly Aweigh.We flew into Fort Lauderdale Airport from Montreal, we were picked up by a Carnival Rep, and taken to The Airport Hilton. Really nice hotel, only problem breakfast was like 15.00 ...

This was a fabulous cruise. The only downsides were debarkation and embarkation. We purchased transfers from the airport to the ship. We waited at the airport for 1-1/2 before a bus arrived. Upon our arrival to Port Everglades we were directed to stand in line outside of the cruise terminal. We stood in line for over 2 hours to "check in". I've been on many cruises and have never experienced this ...

We are long time cruisers and have come to love it. We have always cruise RC but we decided to try Carnival for a change. The cruise was to celebrate our daughters graduation, so we booked to cabins. To start off we were elated to hear Carnival came to their senses and decided to refund that stupid fuel charge. So we had an on board credit waiting for us as we arrived. Embarkation: Not so ...

We have just returned (or actually, I'm still onboard, but due in Fort Lauderdale in under 8 hours) from 8 terrific days on Carnival's Liberty. I was not expecting it to be so good, based on past (negative) experience with Liberty's sister ship, Glory. However, it was a great vacation. When I say we are not your typical cruisers, I mean that we enjoy cruises yet partake in nothing they have to ...

This was our fifth Carnival cruise (our first was November, 2006, so you know we were 'hooked' right away!). We chose this itinerary because of the 4 sea days, which we thoroughly enjoy. We flew from Boston to Fort Lauderdale the morning before the cruise (April 11), and stayed at LaQuinta Inn. Embarkation was quite smooth. We arrived at the pier around 11 a.m. and were on the ship before noon. ...
