Liberty of the seas certainly provides the WOW factor, departed from Barcelona on a western Mediterranean cruise in August. Embarkation was a breeze and we were so excited to get onboard. Cabin was clean and cabin steward was great, we were on deck 10 which I would recommend as handy for the Windjammer and you can always get downstairs if the lifts are busy faster than you can climb up several flights.

Onto the dining options, Windjammer was very good, choice is amazing but it can get very busy and on one occasion we were waiting for a table for quite a while the influx of guests was just too much for the staff to deal with and it wasn't a satisfactory experience. Food was of a high quality, waiting staff did seem a little tired at times. The main dining room is amazing ! Very busy and bustling at times, we chose the "My time" dining option, but I am sorry to say it just doesn't seem to work well. There are times when the line is so long you worry if you are going to actually get a table before the restaurant closes, you can make a reservation - which just conflicts with the whole idea of dining at a flexible time, I expected to take a buzzer, expect to wait a while but it did end up in chaos a couple of nights and it was stressful ( when it should be far from it. ) Staff in the dining room were always excellent. Food is fabulous onboard and there is something for everyone.

Swimming area was great and the adult only solarium was my favourite, I do think that RCCL should be removing towels on what are reserved sun beds after maybe an hour, it is not Benidorm circa 1980 ! Entertainment was great, really top notch. Bingo was rubbish, weird bingo cards put me right off after one go. The photograph prices are misleading, beware. Check before you decide to buy. To sum up, this ship is a dream - not perfect, and there is room for improvement but the staff, the ambiance onboard and the destinations on this itinerary make it fabulous, and a memorable cruising experience.
