This was our second time on Liberty of the Seas. We have been on two Carnival cruises since our last time on this ship, and what a disappointment they were!! This cruise was such a welcome return. Embarkation was a breeze, we arrived at the pier about 11:30, and we were on board eating in the Windjammer before 12:30. No problems at all. I definitely recommend travelling a day earlier and getting there early, as the lines get longer the later it gets. The lines seemed to move very rapidly though from our lookout on our balcony.
Our Stateroom was ready by 1pm and was very clean and smelled fresh, no sign of any smoking, thank goodness. Our cabin steward was Rey, and he made sure our room was in good shape daily.
The dining room service was excellent, and the food was good. We could not have asked for better wait staff. The Windjammer staff was also excellent at all times and did a great job of cleaning tables and providing drinks as needed. They would also help you find a table during the busy times! The promenade eateries always had fresh snacks and hot pizza and panini's at all times and the staff was very friendly and helpful.
