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 ...

We have went on several cruises with Norwegian and Royal Caribbean, but not Carnival Freedom. We had several issues before leaving with CF after we did an upgrade to our room. They charges us again for soda and gratuities after the upgrade. Please make sure that you understand it is a bubbles soda package(CF doesn't tell you it is just pepsi products)- We paid for extra for a suite with extra ...

The weather was great. Worker on the ship were fast and a dressed you with your name every time they saw you. There were alot to do on board. It was nice meeting and talking to people from all over the world. I would do it again. The sun rise and sun sets on open waters were amazing. I walked on a walking track early in the morning it was nice with the ocean fresh air. There were alot of ...

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 ...

Just getting the car parked at the port was a 1 and 1/2 hour process. Getting onto to the ship went smoothly for a change. The food buffet was the worst I have experienced in over 10 cruises including 4 on Carnival. The sit down dining was way below the standard I have always had. The menu food choices were not good at all. The appetizers were always the same. Service was just acceptable not ...

1st we had a famtastic time however there were a few things that we did not like. I called to book the drink package and was told to call back. When I called back was told the package had gone up $10 per person per day. Hard pill to swallow. With only 15 drinks per day. Sounds like a lot but with 3 at sea days it really is not. Also we selected any time dining. Will not do that again as it really ...

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 ...
