Carnival Freedom Review

Additional details
Here is my overview of our recent trip on the Carnival Freedom – 6 Night Western Caribbean. We are a pretty laid-back couple (late 30’s) and this was our first cruise together (I sailed on RCL in 2005).
Ft. Lauderdale – we stayed the night prior to our cruise at the Riverside Hotel on Las Olas Blvd. A great street with lots of bars & restaurants. We took a trolley ($2/person) to Ft. L. Beach. We walked the strip and stopped for drinks while watching the cruise ships sail out of port. It was a great way to start our week! The next morning we strolled along the Riverwalk before catching a cab to our cruise.

Cabin Review
We had room 6256 and found it spacious with lots of storage. Another thing I liked about this room is that it was near the elevators/stairwell – so just 3 flights up to the Lido and 3 flights down to the lobby bar & Chic Restaurant. Very convenient for popping back to the room when we needed. We were above and near the back of the Victoriana Lounge, however we only heard noise on several occasions, and it did not disrupt our sleep.
